so i know the uae projectors are not made for hids but i kinda like the look of them and im thinking i want hids too. seeing its tax time im trying to figure what to get and i kinda want to upgrade my lighting a bit (after i finish my sound) but my question is if i do hids with these headlights how bad will the output be and how will my highbeams work?

the output is fine, not optimal but still better than halogens imo. highbeams work the same.

I have XB35 6K HID's on my UAE headlights. Output is good, not sharp but looks good. I'm happy with mine.

Nate.... just get a nice retrofit done. Its so worth it. Don't waste your time on the UAE setup and HIDs. I've played the cheaper is better trick and its always more expensive in the end. PM sent........

If you like the look of the UAE housing then grab some 4th Gen TL projectors. They're a direct swap and have pretty good output.
