Just installed my HID kit but had to switch from my ugly halos to yellow stockers since the bulb was the stock size. Anyway I know there is a couple different kinds of smoked headlamps so post pics of all different types and those who have HID and smoked lamps and comment on which ones are best?

Not the best pics, all I have though.

Yes, the driver's light is better.  I'll buy a new pass bulb when I get my car back.

Is this what you meant?

I don't have that many, here's what I took though:
This building is about 20-25 ft from my carport, I'm guessing.

Sorry, I'd get more. I don't have my car though!!

It made a HUGE difference driving though! I cannot really remember what it was like before, just blown away with what I can now see. It was a great upgrade! I plan on buying the same setup for my friend with a 94 GT. Just when I can.

I know I had the smoked lights put in on a Friday. That next day, my sister was graduating college. I had to leave out before the sun came up. I think I lost some light om switching to BOI's? Nobody was on the roads yet, so I ran high beams the entire way.

It's hard for me to say because I DO NOT drive @ night these days!! I get blind as ever when the sun goes down. I did take my car out the night before I had my HIDs put in. It was like night & day with the HIDs put in though. I can only remember changes like that, really. I hope this helps, some. Sorry!
