It is positively unsafe to drive at night on the highway with less than adequate illumination. Our eyes are created to see clearly only in daylight conditions wherein the color temperature is around 4300k. Anything less than this value of color temperature is a compromise. The standard halogen bulb yields a color temperature of 2300k that is comparatively low. It is therefore a great change if you use High Intensity Discharge (HID) kit has color temperature of 4300k and higher.

The HID kit works on the principle of a sustained electrical discharge between two tungsten electrodes immersed in a medium of Xenon or similar noble gases inside a sealed tube of quartz. This illumination is 300% more than that of the halogen bulb while the consumption of power is 35% lesser. On an average, an HID bulb will last for up to ten years or 3000 hours of use and these are some figures that cannot be matched by the halogen bulbs. The HID bulbs have a smarter appearance and you will have the choice of placing an order for the HID conversion kit in diverse colors.

There is a HID conversion kit available for almost every car on the roads today. The HID kit is protected by a warranty for a year, two years or a lifetime, depending upon your need. These kits are the plug-n-play variety. Therefore, one can easily carry out the installation without asking for professional help. However, only if you require, there is an instructional video also available for carrying out the installation.
