Your days of driving in the dark with the old halogen bulbs are gone. Today there is a novel concept in the form of High Intensity Discharge or HID conversion kit that will turn nights into day with its brilliance. The HID bulb is one that does not work on the principle of heating a filament white hot, and thereafter using the illumination for lighting up the area as in the case of the standard halogen bulbs. HID kits have tungsten electrodes across which a continuous spark is struck in the medium of Xenon or similar noble gases. The illumination that results is similar to that of daylight. The color temperature of HID is between 4300k and 6000k while daylight figure is around 4300k and halogen bulbs have a color temperature of around 2300k. It becomes obvious then that the HID bulbs will give you safer light akin to daylight.

HID light is 300% more powerful than halogen. The HID also consumes 35% less current since there is no filament inside an HID bulb. HID kits for the same reason, that of the absence of a filament inside the kit, lasts for as long as ten years or 3000 hours of use on average. You can find out a HID conversion kit equivalent to your car quite easily by checking out the bulb guide. There are HID kits for the Ferrari and Fiat, Harley-Davidson and the Hummer as well as Mercury, Porsche and the Mitsubishi among many others. Each kit includes 2 bulbs, 2 ballasts and 2 brackets. There is a standard one-year warranty for each kit that is easy to install by simply following the instructions. Your kit will reach you in not more than a couple of days.
