What about halogen? And, if i had a couple of grand to throw at my car, it sure as heck wouldn't be in the headlights! Or are you talking about those ricer blue headlights that aren't really HID?

im using the polished lens housings with replaceable H4 halogens, all wired on a relay. sirius H4 housings 5 3/4" the relay draws less currrent than the old way headlights. 4x the peripheral light. high beams are as bright as legal. http://xs227.xs.to/xs227/08203/sasd4661.jpg

Only problem is getting a good clean cut off so you don't blind the oncoming traffic. I like HIDs and if I had a choice I would never go back. I think the only way to get a clean cut off is to get a projector style headlight and that looks a little goofy on a old car

Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first.
Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.
