What is an HIR2/9012 Stealth HID Kit?
An HIR2 HID kit is simply a kit that allows you to upgrade your existing HIR2 halogen bulbs to Xenon HID (High Intensity Discharge) technology seen on many newer cars. The benefit of upgrading to HID is the huge amount of extra light you get compared to the yellow candle like light that a standard HIR2 halogen bulb will emit.
How much extra light do I get from a 35W HID Kit?
This will differ somewhat from car to car, however the 35W Stealth HID Kits will give approximately 300% more light on the road. This is a massive improvement which will transform your night time driving experience. Hazards, road markings, corners, signs and anything else you need to see will be far more visible, increasing road safety significantly.
What's so good about the HIR2/9012 Stealth HID Kit?
This is a fair question as there are a large number of HID kits available on the market, especially on the "cheap and cheerful" marketplaces that we all know and love! However, despite first appearances, all HID kits are not built the same!
Here at HIDS4U, we are not just a reseller. We do extensive testing and product development on our HID conversion kits. We ensure only the best quality components are used to give you the performance you are expecting.
With our products you can expect the following:
- Correct beam pattern due to perfectly aligned light source in our bulbs.
- Consistent bright light due to the quality of the bulbs and ballasts in perfect combination.
- No error messages on 99% of vehicles due to the advanced CANBus compatibility systems developed for our ballasts.
- No radio interference due to the EMF suppression technology.
- No damage to other vehicle components (like the wiper motor) due to surge protection technology.
- Slim and stylish ballast to fit in even the tightest of spaces and to look good while it's there!
- 2 year warranty on all parts as we stand behind our product quality.
What colour HIR2 HID bulbs can I have?
We offer 3 different colour temperatures depending on your preference. The choice is largely between maximum light output and colour. Let's run through the options:
- 5000K - The most popular due to them being the brightest of the three. You get a much whiter light than a halogen bulb, but without the blue tint you see with higher K rated bulbs.
- 6000K - A close second in popularity, only slightly less bright than the 5000K bulbs, but these also come with the added blue tint for that stylish Xenon look.
Do I need a mechanic to fit an HID Kit?
In a word, no! These kits are provided on a DIY plug and play basis. The HIR2 HID bulbs are a direct replacement for your existing HIR2 halogens and you then simply connect the bulb cables to the ballast using the plug and play connectors. Often our Stealth ballasts will fit inside the headlight unit, but in the case where you have little room within the unit, you can mount the ballasts in the engine bay. This will require you to drill a small hole in your dust cover to allow the bulb and ballast cables to connect.
Our instructions are written by ourselves in an easy to follow, step by step process and is in proper English. We are also on hand to assist with any queries or issues you have to ensure you are up and running with these as soon as possible.
Is a 35W HID Kit my only option?
The HIDS4U Stealth kits come in two different power ratings, these 35W kits and also a 55W version. The difference is simply the brightness. The HIR2 55W Stealth HID kits will give up to 400% more light compared to a halogen, whereas these 35W kits are rated at 300% brighter. Most vehicles will be fine with either so it's entirely up to you which one you go for.
