Both 35w and 55w will be blinding if your reflectors have bad optics. Best you can do is aim them accordingly.

Good stuff. Thanks for the technical info. That is what I was looking for. Now, on to a new problem.. Sigh.... I ordered some aftermarket LED Halo Projector lights from Spyder. NOW, they (spyder) are saying I have to change my bulbs to a 9006 for the low beam and an H1 for the high. Also ordered some projector LED Halo fogs and they are saying it might take a H1 but they were not sure. Ok, so he said I could just match the bulb when the new headlights come in. Ugh.... So I have to return the H13's and the H10's and rebuy some more HID lights. This is really becoming a pain in my *** hole! lol Anyone have some info about this situation that might help? Thanks...

You shouldn't need to return your H10's since thats your fog lights. Just return the H13's and buy the 9006 kit. You'll be set at that point for those aftermarket headlights.

I'm thinking about getting hids myself but I wanted to get some things clarified before I do. Want to do it right the first time without any sort of issue
First off my main concern is will they work in the factory headlight or would it be best to buy an aftermarket headlight? I've read a lot about them producing a glare and blinding other drivers, and I really don't want to cause that at all
Also would they be alright in the fog lights just fine? I think I read they could melt the housing if they're 9145 and up and my bulb would be the 9145
If I do need to get an aftermarket headlight where would be a good place to order some?
If I didn't make sense or anything I'm sorry, I'm pretty tired right now
Thanks in advance

They will work fine in heads and fogs as long as you order 35w.

I'm not sure what the watt is of hids. I was gonna order them from jon_to and I don't think he says what the wattage is of them. If anyone has ordered the hids from him, it'd be greatly appreciated. Like i said in the last post i really don't want to cause any issues for other drivers. I was gonna go with the 6000k btw

What about any glares for other drivers? Do you get flashed a lot when driving?
I'm thinking I may just order these and then at a later time get a projector style housing
