they seem to be a pretty decent looking company and i'm thinking about doing this. Anything i should be aware of. Only think i find funny is it says they run at 14000K. I thought HID's were only a spark jumping a gap at such a voltage you don't notice the electrical spark. I thought they ran at a pretty cool tempature, like less than a halogen. :screwy:
Hit me up with a PM if you have any direct questions or post the general questions here, and I will try to answer them to the best of my ability.

14000K bulbs, or 4300K bulbs for that matter does not refer to the absolute temperature of Kelvin, but a temperature scale of color/light.

Kelvin = 100 + Farenheit. Thus, if we were talking about 14000 degrees of Kalvin; circa 14000 Farenheit, not only would it be too hot for the car it would melt the world

Keep the questions going.
