You can get your self a nice set of lights and its pretty much 1 of the easiest swaps from what iv herd , i just recived my kit and come spring ill be installing mine and makes a world of difference and looks clean. Welcome to the party.So I have my '89 Mustang LX, and I want to upgrade the lights to HID lights. So I check out AmericanMuscle.com and I find lots of different headlights. Then I also find an HID conversion kits. So I assumed I needed that and also the actual head lights coverings....? This is kinda confusing. Thanks.
NOTE: These bulbs will fit in any automotive application that requires a 9004 Series bulb. NOTE: HID kits are not to be used in a Projector light setup.
man, despite what millhouse says, i like my HID kit. i've got a retrofit 5000k kit and they light up the street AWESOME, i don't get anyone flickering their brights at me like i'm blinding them, and most of all, they look BADASS
Got any pics from the drivers seat, and looking at the car from the front, with them on?
Good read Millhouse. According to that article, even the retrofit you posted isn't a good idea because it still has the wrong lenses and housings. I was interested in this just for the cool factor. I don't drive my mustang very much(under 2000 miles a year), and even less at night. Looks like I will keep it with the new lenses and halogens.
haha thats my car in the 2nd pic and the only reason they look like they really scatter the light is because the camera is a piece of sh**. They are projector housings and when looking at a wall like in the first pic there is a cut off line almost the same. I've been pulled over numerous times for my taillights and window tint and never once bugged about the headlights. I've had friends drive right at me and they said it didn't glare at them at all. So i dont think they are that bad. I still want to do the retrofit when i have time but going to school and working all the time leaves no time for me now. And I also have another car i'm doing some mods to completely different than the mustang, 1999.5 Audi A4 quattro.
I'm actually quite surprised you have projector headlamps. Even so...it's not camera flare that I'm talking about. You'll notice in the pic of your car the light is focused in a small blotch in front of the car with scattered light both to the sides and to the front. The pic of the real HID setup shows how unifor the light is throughout the pattern.
