I beg to differ.

removing your catalytic converter, purple taillights, putting R compound tires, etc...are all illegal.

but a lot of parts out there on the market are legal...TRD exhaust are usually street legal, a lot of tires and wheels are DOT approved, turbo kits or superchargers are CARB legal, lowering your car to certain level, and the lists go on...

Some things are just illegal...

Other things are downright dangerous, not just to you, but to other drivers.

Blinding oncoming drivers with your illegal don't-give-a-shit-for-nobody-but-myself HIDs is one of them.

When I crash into you head-on because I can't see where the fuck I'm going, you go ahead and tell me how you don't give a fuck.

Tell y'all what, Imma just drive around with my big-ass camera flash in hand, and when some jerkwad blinds me with his illegal HIDs, I'll just respond with a nice blast to the eyes. Sounds fair, yes?

installing HID kits into reflective housings, sure it's stupid and dangerous

but installing into OEM headlights with projector housings, i dont see a problem with it at all, they all have cut off beams, and if you have half a brain your no more blinding than any BMW, etc.

If those OEM projector headlights you're referring to are made for halogen bulbs, then no, you are definitely more blinding than OEM HIDs by sticking an HID kit into them.

Halogen projectors are not the same as HID projectors.

And it's cut-off shields, not beams.

Halogen projectors are different then hid!


fx-r on top halogen on bottom


fx-r on top halogen on bottom


Halogen projector from 4runner


YES it has a cut off but look at it! uneven light, the width of the beam.

Don't get a hid kit, Don't put hid in halogen housing. Get a car WITH hid.

its just that i see you respond to pretty much every HID thread on RS as if HIDs came into your house, disrespected your whole family because somebody narc'd you out!

Never seen someone so adamant about HIDs and the use of the word ricer... you really need a new hobby, we may need to do an intervention on you, you wont even see it comin! haha
