I have been on the fence about these.
I believe the sale will put me over, so please post the details about the sale when you can. I believe I am in!
Killer lights. Definitely want to retrofit some projectors in mine and have seen kits for the square headlights, just I'm unsure of the size of our headlight housings. The measurement in millimeters is diagonal or the longest side????? Anyone know?
Peter, if I were to use both high and low beam sets (all four lights) is it possible to set this system up as to when I'm using low beams, only two lights are on then when I hit high beams ALL FOUR lights can come on? Is this possible or will I just have to rely on just the two lights at a time? If I were to order these sets, would I have to specify I want all four lights on when I turn on the high beams? Thank you kindly.

John,I have HID's on every car I own. Wouldn't go without them. GNVenom has had them since 1995. I converted my GN back in 1996 using Philips ballasts and D2S Westinghouse bulbs, with a custom-made shield on each bulb. I used H4 housings made by Bosch. This was high-cost stuff back then. Today, there are much less expensive hardware parts available. If the Alradco kit is tried and true, go for it. You will definitely need relays though.
The HID ballasts have a big surge for startup (23 amps for a few milliseconds) then drop down to 35 watts - about 3 amps per lamp. It's the surge that fails you if you don't use relays tied to the battery.
John,
You should market a plug and play kit for the hid harnesses bet you would sell a bunch! Some of us are lazy and rather spend $$$.
