Im looking at buying a HID conversion kit for my 91 s13 hatch I already have the frsport h4 conversion housings.
what im wanting to know is what are some good brands of HID systems? Has anybody been happier with one brand better then another? Also what do i do about my high beams? Or will i no longer need them after the hid conversion?...thanks for your input

On my last car I picked up a DDM Tuning HID kit. All their kits come with a lifetime warranty and are reasonably priced. (roughly $65 if you're doing a high/low kit in 35w)

Ran my kit for 2 years before 1 ballast went out, probably due to slightly poor placement on my part. They shipped a replacement ballast to me with no hassle.

any input on what k range to get? i was thinking about 8k's and will this be ok with my glass housing headlights?

4300k or 5000k. If you want a little more blue go with 6000k but thats all I would go. 8000k is too high. You do realize the k value is just the color temperature right? The higher you go from 4300 the less light output you get.

OK I see, so I will go with the 6k then. Yea I knew what the k value stood for. Thanks alot.

i have read alot about morimoto Hid kits everybody is swearing by them? Anybody on here used any of there stuff? Also what do people think about xentec kits?

You paid $65 for an HID kit. That's why it failed. You're lucky that it worked in the first place and lasted more than a week.

Most of them if not the majority are just re-branded kits from asia. Its a hit or miss. I would just go that route since your car is um old or just keep the stock lights.

I would be more into researching better light output then just sticking "hid's" in to have the HID look. With your H4 conversion and a good set of H4 bulbs with an upgraded wiring harness, you probably have better light output now then you will with a cheap HID kit.

Retrofit or your dook status

what do you mean by retrofit? I dont need to modify anything with what I have. Like I said I have FRSPORT.COM Hella H4 conversion housings and Im looking for a good quality hid H4 Plug and play hid system... so i dont need to "retrofit" or modify anything.
