Help with Xenon Lights
i think i get it now. I need to get the conversion for my high beams. but my low beams should be fine. does anyone know of any good conversion kits that arent to pricy. i know i will probly spend around 250ish after everything. are the ones 96audi said a good idea? can you do it for foglights too are is that dumb? Thanks to everyone for helping
O and one more thing if i was to get the conversion kit what kind of bulbs should i get? H1-H7? or what for high beams and it wont hurt my casing for the lights will it?

You could try this site for $139: http://www.fashtek.com/?gclid=CK6Iga...FQ-9VAodLgnAPA
I couldn't vouch for the quality though. You will need H7 bulbs and the casings should be fine.

When i turn my lights on they take a second or so to focus and then are a lite blue color. i will try to take pictures to show my car but still have no time. Thanks 96audi ill check them out if ne1 else has a good site plz let me know.

You must buy the kit. The car is a 12V system. Xenon bulbs operate by using a power ballast that drives a roughly 20,000V electric arc between two electrodes in the bulb (at each end of a glass container of xenon gas), which excites the electrons chemically and causes the gas to give off light. 12V from a car system would never even tickle an HID bulb, let alone power one. No way around it - you need the kit. They're pretty reasonable in cost now.
...in a different car. Fashtek's service was fantastic and very fast to ship, but I had an annoying flicker from time to time in either or sometimes both of the bulbs. It could be a faulty part, but it might also be a not-so-good design. I don't know for sure, but I sold the kit with the car it was in. I have a couple friends who have kits from them and never saw such issues, so my kit may have been a fluke.
H7 is a bulb style. D2S refers to a designation of a bulb meant for a projector housing. If it was an HID meant for a reflector style housing, it'd be a D2R. It can be either D2S or D2R and still be H7 (or H1, H11, 9006, 9005, etc). The designation as D2S or D2R refers to headlamp housing design, not bulb style.
