It also means less mucking around not having to deal with the projector stuff at all.

Danimal Member 48 Member For: 11y 10m 15d Posted 27/07/13 06:29 AM Share Posted 27/07/13 06:29 AM Surely the sealed beam projectors would be a much better idea for hid's than reflectors. Hence why any car that comes with factory xenons have projector lamps.And I was always under the impression that you shouldn't bother using hid's for high beam as the ignition time does suit the application for high beams? 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85740-fg-mkii-projector-headlights-with-hids/#findComment-1410400 Share on other sites More sharing options...

High beam on the other hand would be ordinary..
