1. If you have a BMW, you will need a CANBUS compliant kit. Our cars check each bulb to see if it is burnt out, and if you don't put in a CANBUS kit (i.e. resistors wired in) or code out Bulb-Check, you will get flickering, errors, or the bulbs simply won't turn on. 2. Please, please, please don't throw an HID kit in your halogen headlights. You'll spew light up in to driver's eyes, down on the road 15 feet in front of you, but none ahead of you. So when you're driving down a highway alone, you won't be able to see far ahead, which is a safety concern to both you and others on the road. Pick up DEPO projector headlights (if you're on a budget) or OEM Bi-Xenon headlights if you want to go the HID route. The OEM route gets rather expensive rather quickly, even the DEPOs aren't going to be cheap--a few hundred. |
