What did you do to ur Gen III Prius today????

Installed theretrofitsource hids today. Night and day difference

 

Which setup did you go with? Pics?

 

Someone hit me while I was parked at college ):
I know several people have the “ebay Front lip” for their Prius, and it would cover some of the damage, but I don’t know how high up the eBay lip sits.
Can anybody with the eBay front lip measure how high it goes up on the front bumper on the sides near the wheel?

I’ll get a picture with them on in the daylight as soon as I have a chance.
The light output would hardly change since I only did 2 super thin coats and then 2 coats of glossifier. I didn’t want them smoked to look black because then you wouldn’t be able to see the turn signal well.
You can compare it with the headlights, which you can see the DRL is more gray.
This picture was pre-scratch ):

 

Sorry for that one man.. drives me nuts how careless people can be.. I have the ebay lip, I will measure it to be sure but here is mine for reference, hope it helps..

 

The 5500k set up. I think there is only one hid option for them. I have daytime pics but you can’t really tell

Edit: here’s the kit I got:

H11 Morimoto Elite HID Systems | H11 HID Headlights

 

The important pic is showing the Lo beam light pattern against a light colored wall in complete darkness.
>How much 'spill' is there above the Lo beam cutoff pattern?
>Is that pattern clearly defined compared to the stock incandescents?

They may seem 'great' to you but they could be horrible to oncoming drivers.

The roads are flooded with cheap, illegal LED and HID 'Direct Replacement' bulbs that do not work with the headlight assembly reflector.
Where I live it's easy to spot them on any highway. I wish there was a crackdown on them.
But I know it's a complicated subject. How can a Police Officer easily test and ticket crappy Lo Bean Patterns?

 

I'm looking at trying the H11 HIDs. There are several options, including temperature range and ballast power.

I think I'm going:
50w ballast
5500k bulbs
Hd relay
Anti-flicker

 

Stop blacking out ur headlights... Im about to rip mine off to do the same... lol, it looks way better on the 2012-2015 LED`s then the 2009-2011 LED`s tho... So thats a problem... Is there anyone here who has blacked out 2009-2011 LED headlights? Im just really wondering how it would look...

 

Good thing no ones talking about baking the lights and putt n’ sequential turn signal led strips cos Im dying to do dat.

 

Priiota - Prius Cruise to Neptune Nets - February 24th 2019, sign up under Local Prius Club Main Forum!!!

 

How about we cruise to Korean barbecue instead

 

I’m not the one who installed HID. My lights are stock (; I was referencing my DRL’s

 

my to do list for upgrades are growing..

PH-1 ?

 

Let me know how the ride is with those. I have Tien shocks on the car and feel like upgrading to these might give me a better less bumpy ride

 

Date change!! New date March 3rd.

 

Nice! IDK why but I couldn't find any other shock compatible for mine, other than the KYB sport shocks.. Which I like!

 

I got mine from the tire rack website .

Nice! How do you like them?

 

I like them, not as floaty as original but not to stiff either
