you should not be mounting a set of hid lighting in the stock housings. it is not a projector and will not correctly disperse the light from the hid bulb. you will blind anyone driving towards you at night.

I agree. I've noticed quite a few automobiles on the highway now with HID conversion setups in reflective housings. The only thing that I don't like about my projectors is that they don't produce enough glare to illuminate street signs properly.

i agree. if you want to blind everyone one the road, have improper and unaimed lighting and have no cutoff lines.

there is a reason that all factory hid lighting systems use projector headlights and halogen systems use reflection.

you can get projector headlights for neons on ebay or various other online retailers like partstrain.
