Default Are HID lights illegal?

Not that it will stop me from installing them LoL, but I was just thinking about it because I am about to install them in my car. I gotmy kitthis weekend and I got 6000k.Obviously tons ofpeople have them so I am assuming it won't be a problem withthe cops.

No they are not illegal - getting to high of a k rating is illegal - I believe that anything over 10k is illegal, or will cause you to get pulled over.

You really need the proper projectors. If people flash
you with your low beams on, your lights should be lowered
and moved to the right.

you can do anything illegal with your car and you won't get pulled over for it - they will use it as a reason to pull you over to check for something else....use your imagination

you at 6k have nothing to worry about
