defensetaa Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 As I have made my way through the gallery's and various photos, I've noticed that not very many SS's have projectors. Why is that? Dont work very well, dont look good, what? And............... do HID's fit in projectors? Does anybody know, or take a guess. Dumb questions, but I love the concept of a concenrated beam mixed with HID brightness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NTMD8R_SS Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 Yes you can run HID's whit the projector headlights, i belive the bulb size is H10 or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stalbomb17 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Yeah, i took it off and im wating on my new one to come in to put it on.. and ntmd8r i dont think you can run hids in projectors, my casing for the projectors said on the back of the housing that you cannot use Hid's and its a h1 bulb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocoop Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 The projector lights you get on ebay are completely different than the ones that come in cars factory with projector HIDs. To do it right youd have to get a set of HIDs from like a bmw or benz or something and retrofit them in your truck headlight housings. I was gonna do it and I still have all the stuff but I never have time and Im too lazy. Its a lot of work and the HIDs for them are way more expensive than the regular kits like on ebay...
