No hitting a deer is not gay just expensive lol. But you can always hit a gay deer...but it depends if cars equipped with projectors on the headlights also some cars without projectors still take hids very well.

i wouldn't say they're "gay" but i understand the sentiment. most people try to act like the hid's are better but really if you don't have a projector the hid bulbs tend to scatter the light everywhere and don't send a focused beam as well as an oem halogen design. with that said my stock lights in my galaxie sucked ass and kinda felt like i had no lights at all. but i admit that i did it for cool factor. a halogen upgrade probably would light the road better still.

I went and put ultra clear head light on my fox vert that I got from Sacramento Mustang , and put my HID kit in and it did not scatter the light and also it points down so it doesn't hit on coming traffic or blind the person in front of you through the rear view mirror, it also improved how much I can see at night compared to the halogens by at least 35% it's not hard to see like it used to be

thanks for the tru input I always wondered if they actually improved the lighting because i replaced my light but used silverstar bulbs and I always wanted more light to see the road better. I am sold I think the HID kit will work better than stock upgradced bulbs in a new housing
