Default Hids

I was just wondering...i have a 05 Base Z, and just my luck I get screwed out of the Xenon/Hids that the other Z's come with. So if I was to take my Z up to my local dealership do you think that they would install the lights if I asked? Any feed back would be good.

Thanks

No. You purchased a Z without them.

Although if they do, let me know. I'm about to get screwed out of some Brembo's

They would try to recommend you on replacing the WHOLE headlight since the HID equipped cars have the whole ballast and igniter attached to the headlight assembly with a different type of reflector.

ON TOP OF THAT, they'll charge you a rediculous amount for the whole setup (think upwards of 800 bucks or more) because they are, in the end, a dealership.


Your best bet is to do a search on all the aftermarket HID kits available for the base model Z. It will only cost you anywhere between 250-400 bucks for a good kit, depending on brand, quality, and temp or kelvin rating. Many base owners have installed aftermarket kits and have gotten a kelvin rating or brightness to their liking.

good luck.
