Default HID Conversion Kit

Does anyone know a website that has an HID Dual beam conversion Kit for my 07 Mustang, I'm looking for headlights that light up the road with a little hint of blue I don't really care much for that much blue I just want more light on the road to see better at night

I was looking on American Muscle but their beams are 8000k but it looks incredibly blue they look nice but how is it at night and would I be better off with 6000k for road visibility

I picked these up for the fog lights off ebay

Xenon HID Headlight Globes - H10 9145 - 42W 12V Bulbs‏
Seller User ID: customledlights
Total: $19.94

No issues so far. The first set I bought were from Blue oval (55 Watts) and they melted the fog lights!!! Make sure they are 42 Watts!!!!

I already have the HID headlights from the factory which give a slight blue hint. These bulbs matched perfectly and are really bright.

The seller is very good too. They communicate well.

Says it is 3 times brighter then halogen lights. Our Stangs are 1 bulb for high/low beam. Get the H13 Bi-Xenon kit.

stangmods.com has the dual beam setup for a couple different light temps. Americanmuscle has only the one light temp.

i got mine from venom stang

05-09 Mustang Headlights H13/9008 HID Kit (Bi-xenon Hi & Lo Kit) - $165.00 : Venomous Stangz Performance - Mustang Slim Ballast HID kits, Mustang Lighting, Mustang Exhaust, Mustang Wheels, Mustang Tires, Mustang Headlights, Mustang Tail Lights, Musta

they based in California so i got them in 1 day. great kit and the ballasts are tiny. size of a credit card and about 1/2 inch thick. plus it was the cheapest i could find.

i got 5000K which is pure white and literally it is pure white. there is no blue in the color and when on high beams they have a small yellow tint on the ground right in front of your car (plus brighter than the 6000K). and the are extremely bright!! they shoot out wings on the side and everything with some sort of reflector tape or paint reflects my headlights back to me as far as i can see. (if i drive on a 5 lane highway, i can see the reflectors from all five lanes as far as i can see. frekin awesome). my lights have out shown trucks with their fogs. as i drive by can see my light shine over theirs.


install was super easy. takes about 20 minutes. also if you want i can send pics of the install to you.

i'm going to get a kit for fog lights next but not sure if i'm gonna do 5000K again or get a 6000K to have a small contrast between lights. if you want pics i can take them and pm them to you

when you get it you want to make sure it has some sort of high beam adapter for it as well. i was gonna jsut get the strait up bixenon kit from that site, but high beams dont work with out the plug. mine came with a relay, which had an extra power wire and an extra plug so my high beams will work like normal. with out it, you will just have low beams.

and remember the lower the Kelvin the more yellow the light and lower. the higher the kelvin the more purple in the light and the hotter it is. 30,000Kelvin is extremely hot and super purple but not nearly as bright as 8000 Kelvin.

Yellow is the brightest by far. so bright factor goes as follows:

3000 Kelvin (yellow)

5000 Kelvin (white with a minuscule hint of yellow. not even noticeable unless next to a wall)

6000 Kelvin (White with a hint of blue)

8000 Kelvin (Light blue)

10000 Kelvin (Darker blue)

12000 Kelvin (light purple/ Violet. i believe is illegal and u can almost not see it on the street)

30000 Kelvin (uber Purple)
