Not the Spark Blue (i already have those) but other bulbs like the Super Plasma or the Super Plasma GT bulb, are they good for looks blue/purple, are they good visibility or shit, please post some pics also

if you can find exact pics of the setup you wanted, i could walk you though it. it's not hard at all ... the toughest part is finding a place for the ballasts

this is the only picture i have on me, but it explains everything and how easy it is.



in the image, see that giant metal thing ... directly under that are 2 plastic clips. one is for the stock harness to plug into, and the other is already wired to my ballast (hidden). now to the right of the giant metal thing is a red socket plug for the hid bulb. that's already wired to the ballast.

it's all plug and play.

I have owned a couple of sets of those and they usually last me about a year.

no PIAA bulbs suck, at least from my personal experience.
i'm pretty sure i picked the bad pairs all the time, because my set never lasted more than 6months.

so yeah that was the biggest reason why i got the true HID kit instead. it has been perfect for 1yr
