maybe we should make a new HID thread?

but anyone stressing about install...these things are easy as piss, plug and play and you cant stuff it up. the hardest part is finding a good spot for the ballast to sit and be secured. that's it. dont bother with the brakets. I just cabled tied them down.

dual filament h4 globe. lights one filament on low beam and both on high beam. which means we will all need Hi/Lo H4's.

Not quite.

H4 are dual filament, only one filament is lit at a time, it's the position and location of the filament within the lens and it's reflector that changes the brightness and pattern.

HID H4's have one "filament" and it retracts in and out like a solenoid to move into the correct spot.
