Default Angel Eye Projector light question.

I just converted my factory halogens to the angel eye setup, im not satisfied with the output of light. Can I slap HID bulbs into the projector lights without having problems?

I know some people Ive talked to at work said not to go with a high light output because it could burn the shell or something. Is this true?

Good to know I was worried that if i put the HID's in that they would totally warp the projector lens because they get pretty hot. Its weird though, that on the housing itself it says no HID bulbs. Why is that?

Nil and void, just remember, no matter Wht brand u buy, in the fall and winter they build up condensation, u have to drill holes in the bottom of them to help out with this problem. I've had Anzo's and now Recon.

hids run less wattage than halogens.

hid is 35w and halogen is 55w.

they say dont run hid because you blind the hell out of everyone if you dont use a proper projector with cut off shield.
