Halogen/HID FACTS!!

[1FstChevy]

This is a good thread that i've been too lazy to get involved with. I've toyed with this idea for years now. I'm a tech at a BMW dealership so I get to see all this stuff regularly. The bi-xenon is sweet and has been used since '04. I have some of these units from crashed cars that i've saved and kept for playing around with. I wanted to do something with them to fit my 71 chevelle. Currently, I use hella glass headlights that use regular h4's (halogen). They are a vast improvement over the sealed beam 7's. Grafting the bi-xenon to a glass lens is a huge project in itself and would require a clear front lens, which the hella conversion housings are not. The whole assembly is also very long, which would definetly require cutting the rad support like streetfytr said. Plastic lenses are not even a consideration for me.

You don't happen to have photos of your Hella setup do you??? Thats what I'm aiming for since anything beyond that involving cutting and so forth doesn't seem worth it.

From looking at the Hella info it doesn't look like any cutting or trimming is required, just the glass lenses, H4 bulbs and a harness.
