Vega Turbocharged October 1, 2014 Share October 1, 2014 (edited) thought that one whole light house cannot change light bulb only? this is how the bulb looks like for HID. can change just the bulb. just make sure you don't touch the bulb with your bear hand.

Qpik Supercharged October 1, 2014 Share October 1, 2014 All the male drivers paisei to look at pretty woman yar. Lol... Ehm... thanks for the clarification ahem compliment I think. Sigh, the issues w male drivers... either their ride are very chio or they are too chio. Want to check out their ride also scared get mistaken. So sometimes, female driver dono whether to alert them or not... cos it is very paiseh mistaken for trying to hit on them. But if an Ah Pek pretty safe as they won't mistaken but that is if they can hear or see the other driver trying hard to catch their attn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ER-3682 Twincharged October 1, 2014 Author Share October 1, 2014 Actually,back lights are more important,because,the one behind very difficult to judge the speed of the unlit car in front of them[esp dark coloured car],until he or she brake...then you will know.

GLZT 6th Gear October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 And its always males, I wouldnt say uncles, but younger ones as well. Only 1 out of 10 times is female. Anyway nowadays most cars comes with lighted speedo, so never on light also can see the speedo at night. Actually,back lights are more important,because,the one behind very difficult to judge the speed of the unlit car in front of them[esp dark coloured car],until he or she brake...then you will know. I beg to differ, I think front lights more impt though. Especially when you wanna change lane, and the car coming fast at you with their lights switched off. Encounter a few times liao. If the car without lights switched on in front, at least we got our headlights on to see them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 this is how the bulb looks like for HID. can change just the bulb. just make sure you don't touch the bulb with your bear hand. Direct conversion? No need for the ballast? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaloryalor 5th Gear October 2, 2014 Share October 2, 2014 Recently,noticed,alot of newer cars with DRL,never on their headlights at night,they should put the light switch to "Auto",because their cars got DRL & the meters lighted up with they started the car,the owners don't know back of their cars is totally dark,[no licence plate light,no small light],esp dark coloured cars or even worse MPV with tinted rear screen,the driver behind hardly can see anything.. ,so for safety sake,p/s put your light switch to "Auto".. Some drivers think they are driving sport car or trying to make their car looks lower by switching on the fog light only (no headlight).
