I just completed an upgrade to HID-6000 Fog Lamps. In the effort to ensure the best match with the headlights, I'd like to upgrade them from the OEM 4300 to 6000, as well.
Question 1: Has anyone done this for their XLR? Problems encountered?
Question 2: Can this be achieved by replacing the 4300 bulbs with 6000 bulbs using the existing OEM power/ballasts... or is a kit including new ballasts required? Is a relay cable needed? Was NOT needed with fog lamps.
Question 3: If a "Bi-Xenon" bulb is selected, will this accommodate both low & high beams on the XLR, or will two separate bulbs be needed? I'd prefer for all "thrown light" to be of the HID variety for continuity.
Simple question for most of you, probably, but have never dealt with HID before and want to be sure the proper items are sourced. Tips for best available products would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Jeff
