93-97 Camaro HID kits?
I was wondering how many 93-97 camaro guys had HID lights? I have definitely seen them and they look very sharp, but am having a hard time finding a legit set for my 95. There are ebay sales for them, but no pictures of the lights so I am definitely not ordering them without knowing for sure that they are the correct ones for our cars. If you have them in your camaro, and could let me know where you purchased them, and possibly a picture of them in your car, that would be awesome. Along with this, do they make the bulbs like that for our fog lights? Thanks guys

Please, no ebay kits. 99.9% of them are complete garbage.
The only correct way to do an HID swap is to use a retrofit housing that is made for HID bulbs, or to modify your stock housing to accept an HID projector from another vehicle. - Justin |
I kind of figured they were garbage thats why I didn't get involved. My main problem is that I can't seem to find the correct ones for my car. I have seen them several times in the 93-97 cars but either the owners forgot where they bought them from or they purchased the car with them already installed. Thanks for verifying the poor quality of them though Justin!

They have just about banned from internet sales....But the good news is you can get a good kit for pretty cheap now adays. I retrofitted my stock housings and they look good. I've had them for about 4 years now.
They are 9006 bulbs |
yeah you can do the old sealed beam bulb switch trick. just gotta remove the old bulb thats glued in and throw in the 9006.
you could get hella or piaa projector housings too. |

9006 is not the bulb, yet it is the same wiring connections if it were.

there is no "halogen housing" and "hid housing" projectors r best for hids but hids r fine in stock housings. i have hids in my 2nd set of diffewrent housings and im in the process of swapping in a projectors because i can. not cuz the light is better, its just cleaner lines and not much scatter. so if u wanna spend 40 on silverstars or 50 on hids and ur in the air, go hid. |

So you are swapping over to projectors for your HIDs to get cleaner lines and reduce "scatter" (aka, glare for oncoming drivers and less usable light for yourself), but you don't expect the lighting to actually improve? - Justin |
this thread is full of such bad and dumb info. ER I CAN DO ANYTHING SO IT MAKES IT RIGHT. seriously grow up and listen or stop misleading. you can put up an argument all you want but you are wrong. no one cares that you bought an ebay kit for hids, cool you saved money on **** that won't last awesome i do it too. the issue here is improper application. as justin has clearly defined, certain bulbs require specific cutoffs within their respective housings to correctly and safely distribute light. think of an HID bulb in a non-HID housing as some asshat driving with their highbeams on. no, its not that extreme, its pretty damn close though. look at any car that uses an hid lighting system and take note of the housing. then go **** yourself.
go to the DOT and show them your awesome headlights, then come tell us how they roflz & GTFOUTSSSSS all over your face. |

projectors are going in because i like the look of projectors, idc about light output. i never get highbeamed until now since i have really bright foglights on my bullbar. but what im saying is every housing i have put them in, they look fine and dont have that much scatter and noone gets high beamed. so if u put hids in a stock housing you will be fine. |
