I was wondering which HID conversion kit system I should get? I found 3 different places so far... I want a 5000k-6000k Bi-Xenon system so I would still have hi-beams. My headlight uses H4...


Do you guys think any of these are any good?

I heard that misterjung aren't that great, but a friend has them and I think they're pretty good... They also use a Hella ballast system...

This is a Bohmen system...

Which one do you guys think is the best one to get? Or if there's better ones, or better places to get them? Thanks!

you dont need to get a dual beam kit, HID's are bright. I wouldnt recommend any of those kits. If you are concerned about brightness, get a 4500k-6000k kit. If you are concerned about color, get a 6500k-12000k kit. no matter what all of them are bright. just look around on the internet, go to a search engine and type in HID conversion kits, there everywhere.

Where I drive I need high beams... Trust me. I got cruising around with my friends with Infinity G35, Audi 1.8T, and other cars that have OEM HID and still need high beams cause we cruise through small dark road at like 80-100km which is 50-60mph... And the cut off is really bad... You can't see too far!

And plus if I were to spend that much on just lights, I might as well get high beams too... Well that's the way I think about it...

It is hard to believe that if you were driving on a small dark road that with HID's, you couldnt see very well. But if you want a dual beam kit, go ahead and get one. We are only here to give suggestions.

i forgot to mention that it's not just a straight road... there's lots of turns!! so u can see what's ahead, but not far enough to see past the turns...

and a low beam is still a low beam, it cannot substitute for a high beam...

that is normal.

The ONLY good solutions for converting to high and low beam HID in your car is to either build a set of aftermarket projector style lights using a OEM HID projector low beam, and the stock halogen high beam - OR - Use your stock assemblies and implant OEM HID bi-xenon projectors. The H4 flip flop conversions are just not worth it. Lack of performance, lack of reliability and typically priced very close to the equipment you'd need to build OEM bi-xenon assemblies (the right way).

As far as bulbs, buying any bulb that is not a Philips or OSRAM OEM bulb is not safe in terms of bulb life. Most of the rebased bulbs are generic brands made under less controlled specs, and TYPICALLY fail much earlier than a good bulb should.

One other thing you will realize is that when you use an OEM HID projector, you will not need a 5000K or 6000K bulb to get an awesome color splash for everyone to see. The OEM projectors due that for you automatically with a standard 4100K bulb. You will get a good white light on the road to see with, and a visually appealing stripe of color across the cutoff area for everyone else to see. - Looks bling and works good! Best of both worlds.

BTW, Bohmen and Misterjung both have NUMEROUS horror stories behind them. I have never purchased from either company, but I would never support them either. I have no reason to personally bash them, but please read up on them before you make a final decision. Spend a little while reading the hidforum.com board and you'll collect some good info pretty quickly. Just don't be in too much of a rush to build somthing, that you might regret a month later (wishing you'd done somthing else).

-End ramble.
