oh well, thats illegal anyways.. Alero04 had them; Lindsay, but shes gone now, and she got away with it either cuz her dads a cop, or it just wasnt illegal in her part of Canada.
They looked damn sexy on her black car, tho

phillips 12k H.I.D. kit ordered off of some website...not ebay. they are VERY easy to install and...the hardest part is finding a place to put this little box that you have to have that powers them....other than that...you just plug in 3 plugs and they work!

I'm still trying to decide if I really want to throw HID in without a projector (which is too much of a PITA to to, IMHO.) I certainly don't want to blind oncoming traffic. Do you get a lot of people flashing you?

I've paid for more overpriced OS Silverstars over
the years than I care to admit, and they are still
the best filament bulbs IMHO... but I do still want
to hear from people who have put real HID in an
Alero without a projector retrofit. :/

Okay, then I guess I should chime in here. I have the HID kit w/out projector retrofit. Do I get flashed alot? Define alot? Really it all depends I guess...depends on how the oncoming car is coming at me. I mean if i'm coming to the peak of a hill and its just right where it goes right in the windshield, then yes I get flashed. I have not yet been flashed since I've moved to NC. There was a stretch of a week where I got flashed everyday, but then after that, not at all. Its goofy I guess...maybe it was just the same guy everyday. I wouldn't get the 12K kit though...you will definately get flashed with those, I would go with the 8K kit.
