A friend of mine keeps telling me I should just switch to HID headlights instead of laboring over running heavier wire and installing relays to run high wattage halogens. The "racing sticker" crowd seems to think they're the bees knees, what with 4x the light intensity at only 35 watts. Would I be asking for a bigger headache going to HID than I would, say, switching to higher wattage "roundeyes" in a south african grille? The SA grille would cost me twice as much, but it would definitely look better... John Bange '90 Vanagon "Geldsauger" |
