Got some GREEN HIDS having a matching green theme for my X

Well I purchased some Green 3000K HID D2Sbulbs off ebay for $70 to go with my green gauges in my X-Type. I think it makes perfect sense to have a matching light theme. I cant wait to install. I plan on swapping out the interior bulbs to Green Leds to go with it too, along with plate lights too. Also my parking lights I order some green wedge bulbs too. This will give my Jaguar a good matching them and very unique setup. I see people driving in Chicago with Pink and Blue Xenon Lights all the time. But I never saw one with green hids.

Heres a Vid of someone with Green HIDs at night. I went on HID Forum and several people that has green 3000K xenons say that the output is just as good as 4300K stock great visibility better than 6000K.

hmm I seem to remember... oh yes.. it was said like 10000 times....please dont post the subject line of your topic in capital letters.

What is the deal man? I mean I can see that you cant spell well, and your grammar is atrocious, but presumably you do read some of the replies? Can you read?

I dunno. Personally, driving with those types of lights would be a pita for me at night. But, what do I know; I'm not much a light guy anyways. Give me a good pair of cheapo bulbs i.e silverstars and I'm happy.

the green HID's do look good in the fogs, as long as you have standard HID's in your main beams. i see the combination on alot of infiniti M's and G's here in the city. They are hideous when used for main beams, but mixed they do look good. trust me

I was really hoping no one would respond to this, and this annoying poster would go away[:@]

I could care less if they're brigher, they're a distraction. Distractions = accidents.

RE: GOT SOME GREEN HIDS HAVING A MATCHING GREEN THEME FOR MY X

I don't like the green myself...you drive a distance with those and I'd imagine that green would get quite irritating to see the whole time and possibly cause headaches. Settle down sparty! He only has one other posting...right? What I hate is when they start a post and don't post back for a long time...personally I'd go with the 6k kit in the main beams and do something different in the fogs like the green lights you speak of...

My eyes were irritated watching that video! Have you ever driven in a car with blue and I mean blue lights? [sm=bangbang.gif][sm=smiley11.gif]
Seriously you might like the blue/super white hids and green together...

I got me a pair too, I think they will go perfect with the green instrument cluster on our Jagz. Something unique and different.

Why would you buy green lights for a black jag? That is what you got wasn't it?

It doesn't make sense to make your headlights match your interior lights? Ok if you match your radio button illumination colors but your headlights is a joke!

I'd like to meet jay leno! Comedians are about 20 times more funny in real life! I had one come in officemax when I worked there. My best friend came over and we ended up helping the guy for like 45 minutes...making jokes about protractors to erasers! It was hilarious!
