HID lights and headlight fixtures

Guys, I have a 2003 Mach 1. I love it, but the headlights suck!

I've been looking at the bi-zenon HID kits. ANyone try this? Also, what about changing the actual fixture to a projection-type headlight instead of the standard? Or both?

Its real dark here during November nights.

Cheers

HIDGUY.NET---> the best there is.

05+. Yours shouldn't be too difficult. YOu just have to pull the DRL fuse.

The systems are plug and play, so I really dont see what issues the daytime running lights will pose. I will ask on the MACH 1 forum and I will check out the link you sent me.
Thanks

The only thing is you don't have DRL's with HID's and you loose your high beams, but with HID's who the hell needs high beams.

ug, if you get HID's make sure to let them burn in. DO NOT turn them on and off repeatedly in the first 20 mins or so. One of my lights got bunged because of *someone*. Just make sure you follow the instructions very closely, love mine
