^----------- yea... wtf?
i must be lost when it comes to HID's?

dan7u · 09-22-2007, 08:44 PM

My hid kit came in a case like that as well, but it was basically just cardboard wrapped in aluminum foil. What temp rating is that?

DC5 Stealth · 09-22-2007, 10:17 PM

El_PiBe · 09-22-2007, 10:33 PM

Its b/c he's only two feet away from the wall. Once he's 20+ feet away it will look very different.

Love retro-solutions though.

Thanks for the review on one of the new product they are carrying.

I'm not sure what it means though but according to RSX-CT, it is digitally controlled therefore more efficient and safer to be installed for a newbie like me.

PM him for more details

projector >>>> reflector so the glare does exist.

F123456 · 09-23-2007, 06:19 PM

i think digitally controlled means no more ignitor controlling how the ballast turns on. if that were the case, we won't have to worry about bad ignitors anymore

KazeSpec · 09-23-2007, 09:27 PM

look at the black box in the case...that's probably the controller.
