Hey I took out my HID 8000K from my VRD's they are a ticket awaiting. Of course it's great to match headlights and foglights. But the light output is too much to handle.

HIDs in VRDs is overkill. I've been flashed at 3 times for my halogen bulbs in my VRDs. I say no.

If they were controlled, they'd be great to have HIDs in them, but seriously, it's like driving around with high beams on.

yes hids in vrds are overkill, they over power my 3k headlights. but i love it. and the light output on 3k low and 3k fog is amazing. so imma stick with it.

you wouldn't even know it with the 3k hid's in his fogs, since the fogs glare out anything you'd see anyways, i told him he needs to adjust them, he just scoffed at me.
