HID Help
For starters, YES I searched. I didn't find a satisfactory answer to my questions.
I want a set of HID light's for my headlights. What I'm lost on is to go with the Bi-Xenon where the solenoid move the bulb, the high and low kit that has an HID low and Halogen high, or just a straight low kit.
I've heard about problems with the Bi-xenon kits and the solenoid breaking.
I'm also trying to figure out who to order from. I want to get them from eBay to save some money.
EDIT: Dual Beam HID Kit
Bi-Xenon with a guard over the bulb
Bi-Xenon without a bulb shield
Low only kit
Hi-Halogen Low-HID kit

Well I know that I want 4300k because I want the best visibility not color.
What are the prices like for ignitedperformance?
EDIT: Visited the site. All they carry is the HID low Halogen HIGH kits. I'm still not sure if I want them.
Winks, I know you have that kind of kit. Any pictures of the high beams?

well are you sure the HID's themselves are legal in Ohio? In California, I believe retrofitted HID kits are illegal.. but we don't have random inspections.
If they are legal, then the bi-kit is the way to go because you'll pass.

I'm not sure if they're completely legal, but the color temperature I plan to go with isn't too crazy. Hispanics run around here all the time with crappy aimed HID's in reflector housing and I've never heard of them getting pulled over. I work with a state trooper and I'm friend with a bunch of local policemen.
I also posted a new link to some better HID's.
EDIT: Just read through the vehicle portion of the Ohio Revised Code. No mention to HID lights, but the headlights must be aimed so they don't produce too much glare for oncoming vehicles. Obviously I can correct that by aiming them.
Also the light must be visible 1000 feet away. Not a problem.
The vehicle must have high and low beams. Also the vehicle must have an indicator to which beams are lit.

To furrther your answer: HID kits are not legal in ANY state unless they came stock on the vehicle. Any not factory lighting is considered ILLEGAL. But most states wont give you a hassle if your lights arent super blue or purple.
