TonyHuynhTwo,
But for those of us that do not wish to spend 400.00+ to have an HID system, the inexpensive system is a DEFINITE improvement over the stock halogen lights.
The diamond cut lights may not be engineered for HID lights, but I can tell you from experience they produce a nice tight pattern that is easy to adjust and aim. As far as a LEO bothering you because the system may be "illegal," I believe the secret here is to have the lights properly aligned so they do not melt anyone's eyeballs approaching you--such as a LEO. I have never been headlight flashed once, in two years, and I have passed a LOT of LEO's.
So, for those that can afford to pay 400.00+ for what may be a better HID system--they should go for it. For the rest of us that want a significant improvement to their existing halogen headlight system and want to spend about $75.00 and 30-minutes time, the economy outfit does work and it when properly adjusted (which only takes a couple of minutes) will not bother other motorists.
