Lightwerkz HID Retrofit
Moderator: volvite
The last regular bulbs I had installed before I bought new headlights & did the HID mod were the Xtreme. I had tried maybe 5 different types of bulbs before that, and they were all pretty much the same. And this is covering the crap Sylvania up to fairly expensive so-called brighter bulbs. While the Xtreme were the best of the bunch that I tried, they don't even remotely come close to the HIDs I have now. $30 is a small price to pay to find out for yourself. Over $1k is quite a bit of coin, and I can honestly say I have been tempted before myself. You might be able to find someone who will do a retrofit for you on one of the Xterra or Frontier forums, for more of a reasonable price.Theeflash wrote:Thats a pretty good point. I think for now I'm going to get a set of Philips xtreme power bulbs, apparently the brightest DOT approved you can get. If I'm satisfied I'll do what you suggested and go with some aux lights after I get my bull bar. The real problem I have is driving in areas where I can't use high beams. It seems like I'm just driving with my lights off, using the ambient light whenever I'm doing city driving, or there is constant oncoming traffic. Thats why I really wanted to just go for the HIDs.
haha, yeah, like I said earlier though, if you treat it like buying tires it doesn't sound as ridiculous. To be honest, I probably wouldve gone for an 07 LE rather than an 08 SE if I had known about the headlights earlier. Outside of the lights I love mine though. Tax returns help justify large expenditures also haha.eieio wrote:Theeflash wrote:$1340 $1230 $1080
