Thanks

I BOUGHT THE PIAA EXTREME WHITE BULBS 9005 & 9006 AND I LOVE THEM.  DRIVING PRESPECTIVE VERY WHITE AND CLEAR WAY BETTER THAN FACTOR.  LOOKING FOR A DISTANCE BLUEISH PURPLE LIKE THE BMW'S OR AUDI'S.  I THINK THEY ARE AWESOME.  ABOUT $85 PER SET.

HID are nice but costly. you just need to find out what size the low beams are and find a kit that matches the size or else you will have to do some modification. I've been thinking about the same thing for my titan. you can always look around for used bmw or mercedes or audi kits on ebay. i got a bmw kit for my bike. now i just need one for the truck. hahaha

 The low beams are 9006 and kits cost anywhere from $320 - $500 dollars. I purchased mine from www.xenondepot.com and with shipping it cost me $360 and I recieved them in 1.5 days. Considering that they came from Canada and I live in Texas that's pretty quick; they are shipped through DHL. The installation of them was very easy, "plug-n-play" setup

$360 for bulbs? I don't know, I mean if you got the money to spend that much on bulbs, don't see why not. But for that price I want those bulbs to see into the future too.

The $360 includes the bulbs, 2 ballasts, wires and fuses.

I mean to every each their own. Spend yo money like ya want to. But my opinion, which doesn't matter, I think that much on bulbs and bulb accessories is a little high. I know night driving is a more cautious time, and all proper equipment needs to be running, but headlights at $500, man, those must be some outstanding beams shooting out. Like night into day. But again, that's my meager opinion. And opinions are like a holes, everybody's got'em, and they all stink.

I put HID Lights on my Titan.  You need the 9006 (low beam) kit...get the plug and play...no wires to cut.  I liked the xtec brand.  I have the 8000k bulbs.  The 6000k, 8000k, and 10000k were the ones I considered.  I am happy with my choice.  I took some pictures of before/during/after.

Here are some:

First one is without/before the install.

Second pic is halfway done for comparison...

Third is completed install....

Fourth/Final is pic (which is up top showing light against the garage) showing clean beam across top line (ie No Glare given to other Cars)
