Halogen vs. HID
All of the following can be found at this page (http://www.higherlevelauto.com/photos.html) on the website.
The difference between Halogens and HIDs is clearly shown in this picture. Which two drivers do you think enjoy more visibility at night? And which vehicles do you think turn more heads?

8000K Kit - Center, Chevy 1500
Halogens - Far Right, Infiniti G20

9006 Conversion Kit (same one that goes on Chevy trucks)

These two pictures were taken at the same time, despite the HID picture looking like it was taken when it was darker:

Even in broad daylight, these kits stand out. Plenty of times, people have called me while im driving at one or two in the afternoon, and asked where I am. I'll tell them my where-abouts, like one time, "Six Forks and 440 intersection" and they'll reply "I thought so, I can see your lights from where I am" and they'll be a good quarter-mile away.
Most recently, I was driving to lunch at around 12.15ish in the afternoon, and I saw a car with a super-bright HID kit coming my way, a good 12 blocks away. I made a comment to my passenger about how bright their HIDs were (she said "Yeah I see them" but didn't care :biggrin:). As the car got closer, I relized it was the red Jetta in the above picture, who I had just sold a kit to the day before.
The light output on these conversion kits is amazing. You will never want to drive on halogens again, and may even come back to buy a kit for your other cars too. They create a safer driving environment at night, will make any car or truck look better, and will turn heads everytime you drive somewhere at night. I get compliments at stoplights all the time!
Check the 'Photos' page out on the website, it has more photos, and videos of the HIDs.
