Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
I've been looking at doing this as well. As I'm sure you already know, there are several companies out there selling them.
I found one that at least seemed to have a good reputation from the people buying them. I have an '07 Chevy Cobalt LT that I use as an occasional daily driver when I don't want to get the H2 dirty and I actually found this company on the Cobalt forum.
I haven't ordered from them yet, but a complete set was like about $170. I think they were from www.visionbulbs.com
The way I looked at it, was that for the price of SilverStar Ultra's, it wouldn't be too much more to just go with these and they are true HID's.

Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
In order to go HID dont you need the full Transformer/Ballasts kit and not just the Bulb?
Thanks

Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
Does Hummer H2 Install factory a True HID? and what year did it start if any?
Has anybody have the True HID installed on theyre Rigs?
Was the install worth it, dependable?
Thanks

Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
As far as I know Hummer has never put, or offered HID lights as an option. You have to get the conversion kit and do it yourself.

Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
Do you know if the Replacement Bulb that they call Silver Extreme HID is any better than stock? They are 39.00 dollars but do they offer any noticeable difference, or is it better to bit the bullet and go True HID Kit.
Thanks

You will see some improvemnt with the Silvers, but nothing like a true HID.

Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
Thanks, actually I went down to the local auto parts store and purchased a set of the Silvania Silverstar Ultra's they were about $50 and they did make quite a difference at night. The light is whiter with a hint of blue tint to it. I guess i will try these for a while and then make the switch to true HID's The Ultra's did make a noticable improvement over the stock bulbs.

Re: HID XENON LIGHT UPGRADE
I installed Bi xenon true hid lights just a week ago in my 08 h2. Bi xenon is HID for the low and hi beams. I got them off ebay from the same guy I bought from my porsche they were like $150, theyre great. They come with ballasts, theyre plug and play and are 15x brighter than the stock lights. I'll post pics here in a week or so when I get around to it. I'm having alot of stuff installed in the 08 recently.

This guy is who myself and alot of members on Corvetteforum have bought the kits from. Hard to beat that many perfect transactions on Ebay! I have had my kit for a year now, and no problems. Just drove to Florida on a 7 hour night drive and they worked perfectly! I will never drive another car without HID's. I love how bright they are, and how they "explode" when first turned on then get brighter....too cool!!!!
