HID's look and work better on projected lenses. I believe you have the open lense housing. The lighting on the stock DOT housingwill scatter the light making the lightdistance short.The E-code have projectors to shot light forward. I believe both head light housings are both h7's so you should be ok with that I believe. Correct me if i'm wrong here.

you are actually supposed to have an HID bulb in a projector (legally) it is very bright and all light will not be projected in the right direction w/ out the projector and proper alighnment...i have done something like this before w/ out a projector housing and had to put eye lids on so the light wasn't in everyone eyes at night...... and if anyone is intrested i have real HID D2S bulbs for sale.... $20 each... these are practically brand new!
