[QUOTE="scottydsntknow, post: 16197067, member: 79824"] LMR, LRM... LRM is an Air Force acronym for something else lol... and yeah Spain is super relaxed. As for HIDs in stock housings... they are a bad idea for a lot of reasons. The beam pattern is erratic, hot spots, you are spraying light all over the place and blinding incoming traffic and if you look at what a GOOD halogen setup or a legit HID retrofit looks like lighting wise vs the "plug and play" kits you'll see the difference. That's just a few things. Google for more info. Either run a real good halogen or get a legit retrofit. If you happen to have a 94-98 car you can have the best of both worlds with the DEPO projectors and 9011/9012 HIR halogens. HIRs are halogens that are 75% as bright as OEM HIDs and way brighter than the PnP crap in stock housings. They're what is used in snow plows and it only takes clipping a few tabs on the base of the bulb to fit in 9005/9006 slots which the DEPO projectors are. For the New Edge... the only projectors that are sold that don't look like rice shit are the LMR (got it right that time lol) projectors. The stuff Raxiom sells looks like something you'd see in a 2003 FATF movie. I find that OEM smoked or good replica OEM smoked lights with a real good 9007 bulb is fine. [/QUOTE]
