HID bulbs use xenon gas as part of their mechanism.
I agree that post-factory HID be strictly scrutinized. More often than not these lights are just irritating and don't really shine as bright as the original halogens. During rain or fog, you can forget seeing anything at all. |

as i know that traffic police can't summon you. I get caught by JPJ also they dun saman me. They issue a PGD10 letter to me saying that within 14 days convert back to original lighting and go to jpj let them see only.

for me id just attend the court order to clarify yourself, if everyone has a mindset like what you all advised him to do, we all gonna be blur and bodoh kena charged even we are innocent. this is one thing i hate about being a malaysian. plus, since everyone wanted to find out about the regulations for HID, call in the reporters, im pretty sure it will make a big news out of this.
Just ask urself, did u modify the lighting system? 1. yes- pay the fine 2 No- defend yourself. easy as that. |

HID is legal disregard of the colorsthe reason why JPJ/ Police is cracking down the HID is because of stupid Ah beng DIY their lighting hence altering the entire beam height. here in australia theres a regulation where the beam must be at a right height. Someone MUST send these uneducated JPJs personnals to upgrade their knowledge. while the color is not an offence to other driver, but poses danger to own as higher Ks work badly in low visibility. overall its the JPJ not educating the public with why they are cracking down on the HID and everyone should blame on those who illegally DIY their lighting system! |

QUOTE(gstrapinuse @ May 10 2008, 07:35 PM) I'm called to court for installing HID headlights? Isn't it silly? If your car (not AP) has HID factory fitted, then juz go and settle.. Should be fine, nothing's wrong with factory fitted JPJ approved HID lights.. The story is like this, i was stopped by a patrol car in Ampang last thurs nite, that fella wan 'suap' la, i refuse, den i said tulis, he talked alot and lansi say u will be gantung lesen and so on, i just told him tulis, den the fella issue me this:  Do a normal police personnel has the right to issue somethin like this to ask me to attend court, plus installing HID light is not an offense at all as mine is 6000k is white color (according to jpj site, blue green and violet is not allowed - imho, those are already above 8000k color heat, check this out: http://202.190.64.96/v5/content/view/31/72/1/1/lang,en/ ) Nowadays HID headlights are come standard in most high end production car (like civic 2.0 and camry), if like this also an offense, den all car manufacturers will be sued as well!!! now they wan me to attend court in july!!! how? i got to know that this is a small case, attending court for installing HID is silly!!!!  But if u are one of those ah bengs that fit HID juz so your car bcms more "yeng", then serves u right!!  Btw, I wonder if those cars that have HIDs which are brought in through grey importers are JPJ approved..  |
