I installed the PIAA Xtreem White Pluss 4000K (6006) lows in my AV 2.5 years ago.
Still burning Bright.

Also upgraded the Driving to Street Glow Xenon White (885) 50W about 2 year ago
These are still glowing Good also

I have not touched my  Highs Due to the fact that I dont need them any More.

Depends on what color you would like! it is your choice.

 

[lonzo]

if you want MILD go with just the bulb      WILD go with whole kit

also chk your local laws. In NJ you could get in Trouble with Hids.

hid kits come with a ballast and are more powerful

hid kits come with a ballast and are more powerful

they're also more expensive

 

[diegodillon]

how hard is it to install the HID kit?

 

[Dune Coon]

HID's are pretty much plug and play now. Very simple to install.

 

[diegodillon]

do u have any photos on how to install them?

 

[m02redl]

you just unplug your harness and plug it in to the new one

 

[diegodillon]

okay. I've been looking at some of the lights on-line with some photos on how to install them and i get very confused. Does anyone have a step by step diagram on how to do it with photos. I would really appreciate it.

You want to get an HID kit.  Getting "Xenon" bulbs is a serious waste of $15 and the time and effort to remove your battery and air filter, not to mention nice scratches and scrapes on your hands.  You won't notice ANY difference.

On eBay, there are plenty of HID kits.  They come with a ballast and are fairly straightforward.  For low beams alone, it's around $100.  Well worth it.  You may have to reverse the polarity for the 2002 Av.
