To my knowledge, if its HID.. then it must have a ballast, ignitor and the rest of it..

if it says HID globe, i reckon its just trying to draw attention to ppl that it might be "HID-like" but its actually just a white halogen bulb.

Just get some branded globes (eg philips, narva) with the proper rating to your stock bulbs

+1 to what he's saying, but I can't seem to get the eBay link to work.

I've got the cheap HID kits installed in my R32's projectors and I have to admit, they're shit. They produce much better lighting at night, but also quite a lot of glare and hot spots. I'd recommend getting some name brand globes.

Yeah, I agree too... I was thinking of getting a HID kit too... but with HID's - they will gradually get dimmer and then whitish yellowy after a while - also, too much glare... I'd recommend the Phillips Diamond Vision range - very nice clear white light and very durable would last you a couple of years, I'd say.

Yep, I know what you mean mate. Next thing to do is get a retrofit all setup and ready to go. With what your car's gone through, you wouldn't want your car to have shit glary headlights. Retrofit it!

i would love to do a retro fit but got no time at all, yet i would pay some one to do it if you no anyone>?

Hey 32JEZ, how do those ebay globes compare to Philip Diamond Range? Whiter, brighter?? Anyone else can vouch for these globes?

Jez how long u had those globes in the car for now? They sound pretty good but ive never had a $30 set of globes last longer than 6mnths.

[R34Ricer]

Haven't tried these ones before but i've heard they are well branded.. .but you have to get it from the US, a bit pricy..

I got some pov globes, and they run and look fine. Time will tell though, they'll probably blow soon.

[Spunky Munky]

I have tried over 10 different globe types... must say, the Phillips Blue Vision ones are best.. very nice white light and globes last ages... up to you though.

Didnt think the phillips ones came in a h3c, on other cars have run 6mm wire direct from the baterry via a relay helped quite a bit

Havn't tried it yet on the 32 but might have ta the stock lights are crap mine had raybrig? globes when I got it there pretty well known and xpensive

actually think they were pretty average but who knows how old they were?

[ali-turko]

is there diy thread about wiring the headlights direct from the battery??

[GTR-80Y]

this sounds interesting...might help my HID that cant fire up.

[adam-__-]

Before you guys go out and purchase your new globes, DO NOT buy the 100W globes. They will run hotter and brighter, but could/will melt your headlight housing.

[dori34]

i had splitfire ultra white globes 4300 i think? in my old onevia and f*k oaf it was a big difference from the standard sh*t

i could see heaps better at night and its not fully white but more white then yellow.

got it from hioctaneracing.com.au

try pm them to see if they have any left.

[noone]

Couldnt direct ya to a skyline one but there is one for doing it to a jeep

all pretty well much of a muchness would save some wear an tear on ya headlight switch too

as it is only triggering the lights not carrying any real load

and have to agree with comments about limiting the wattage used have replaced my jeep lights with glass ones to run higher wattage 100/130's

have seen others melt toyota 4B lights using similar bulbs
