Guys,I have a question. Yesterday I went to Nilai 3 to change my headlamps to HID 4300K. I changed to HID because my lights is in very bad condition. Barely can see anything and most of the time I use High Beam but people also dont give flash to me because my High Beam is like normal low beam already.

I ask the shop yesterday what can I do with my headlamps,initially he suggested to change wiring and bulbs to 100W bulbs but that cost around RM180. Then he suggest HID 4300K around RM250. I opted for the HID instead.

Yesterday night I already try the HID. It is way way brighter than my headlamps before BUT there's a problem. The HIGH BEAM on this HID is like very I don't know how to explain. When I on high beam it's like the light is not projected on the road neither it is projected up straight. What could be the problem? HID problem?

Anyone else change their headlight to HID? Will JPJ or Polis "kacau"? Mine is only 4300K.

erm, actually i have problem changing my headlamps to a high watt too, due to compatibility issue, the mech say must change whole thing, izzit true? shocking.gif

Your standard headlights is 55W. If you want to change to 100W, it is best to change to new thicker wires. If you use the old wires with the 100W bulbs, it's going to be same as your current one. Yesterday I asked a shop(shop name Eleven A) in Nilai 3, they quote RM100 for the thicker wire with relay and around RM80 for 100W bulbs. This is much much brighter than your current headlights. blush.gif

If you want to get HID (which I just installed yesterday) the cost is RM250 including installation. HID is very very bright compared to standard bulbs.  brows.gif But it's quite glaring to oncoming drivers. icon_rolleyes.gif

but my mom cars able to change to a higher 1 ( i assume 100W) without changing the wire, is that possible my mom cars has been modify by the previous owner when my parents bought it in 1995?

Like I said, it is possible to change to 100W bulbs without changing anything else but the result is only slightly brighter than your current bulbs. I don't know if your mom's car has been modified by the previous owner but 1995 is quite long. I suggest you change the wire for better result. I have tested the thicker wire with 100W Osram bulbs personally and the result is far better.  icon_rolleyes.gif

Edit: Typo error.

i've used the 130w something bulbs b4 this...but with standard wiring. Guess what? No different whatsoever from stock 55/65w bulb. Anyway, its not recommended to use high wattage bulb
with standard/thin wiring/cable. Just stick with standard bulbs @ just use HID as these guys recommended..but be aware of JPJ lah hehe brows.gif

thanks guys. if this case i think i will not change it la. tight budget nowadays
