HID Xenons Headlamps: Discussions & Queries

[verna]

Re: Xenons HID Lamps Thread

Got some Good info on Automotive lighting... Here goes
Automotive lamp types - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It will give lots of info to all those who are interested in automotive bulbs and bulb switching..
And yeah, I got tthe specification of my fogs too :

Its H27W/2 12 V 27 W US Designation :881
PGJ13 90 degree base.

Now,now... If in India, 3000K fog replacements are practically impossible. Will have to order them from ebay. (Indians prefer calling it the H27 holder type) and in ebay, its mentioned 881 holder type.... In a mess again

Re: Xenons HID Lamps Thread

Check whether the holder of the projectors will fit the stock headlight assembly holder. If it's from the shop you can check it but when ordering from ebay that would be difficult.

Check whether it's a bi xenon ones. Some offer for single beam pattern so it will be not possible.

There are many brands nowadays to choose from so it's always best to talk to the seller on this.

You ordered your DRLs from Hella Online, right Naveen ?? Which webpage? Hella Studio? Is it shipped to you from India or somewhere else ? Does the product reach you in good shape ?

It's not Hella dude. I got two DRLS. One is currently installed. The new model is bigger, just like Philips. Very cheap.
I got it from:

Super Bright LED Car Lights, LED Lights For Cars, LED Bulbs, HID Bulbs, HID Conversion Kits and Car Accessories
Cool Gadgets at the Right Price - Worldwide Free Shipping - DealExtreme

It's not shipped from India. It reached in good shape. Safe packing.

You can also check out this site. Very good packing and reliable. I had good LEDs from here before.

OSRAM is good. P8 is also good. But i would recommend a Philips Bi-Xenon H4 HID Kit. Its available for around 8.5-9 K. You get both the upper and dipper points in one Kit (as the bulb fitment in fluidic verna is H4 ). You will get Bi-Xenons in half the price dude !

Yeah, as I told you, nothing wrong with OSRAM/P8... both are good !! But, personally, I like Philips.

 

[fluidicsumit]

what abt the fog lamps.

ok.i will try both.but tell me one thing. should i go for 4300k or 6000k.
which one will be better.

Re: Xenons HID Lamps Thread

If you looking for visibility go for 4300k HIDs. Philips is better than all but Osram is pretty good too. I use Auto Gauge HIDs.

The specification of foamps are H27W/2 12 V 27 W US Designation :881
PGJ13 90 degree base.
You'll find it mentioned in some places as "881" but most commonly in India as :h27. When it comes to halogens, 881 and 880 differ because of their 90 degree and 180 degree bases but in hids they are the same.
Hope that helped.
