Hi Guys,
I've two question I appreciate if someone can answer.

1. Yesterday I installed HID kit from ebay (55W 4300k), the seller told me it's German quality but I think it was f***** Chinese kit, after the installation I am getting a black shadow line which is not lighted in the middle of light output on ground, did anyone experience that?

2. Where can I get the brightest AE for my LCI halogen lights ?

Thanks,
Bakhtiyar

1. Toss that HID kit and go get a 55W HID kit from DDM (they're only like 60 bucks) in 6000K if you want pure white and 5000K if you want a REALLY bright stock look.

2. Orions are your only option unless you retrofit to xenon...you can try to fit Mtec LEDs in there but overall I think you will be disappointed.

Anyway finally done after spending all of today working on it, and the result:

6000k HID low beam kit
6000k 10w CREE LED AE bulbs
Most importantly, no errors (I did add a 5w resistor to the AE cables and also did not join up the AE cables together)
Before setting the 10w LED AE, did you add a resistor ?

Actually, i have not add a resistor, just join the two AE wire and i have not error message, but i want more brightnes.

Did you notice more brightness with 10w LED AE ?
