Default Installed some HIDS on my '10 Prius

Hey guys,

New to this forum and this car, must say im very happy with it.

I installed a HID kit today on my Prius IV. Pretty easy and plug and play and no problems so far, I also changed the city lights while i was in there (not in pics)

Here are some before/after pics sorry for the quality, pics were taken with my iphone.

Im not sure if im allowed to post the company info of the HID kit that I bought so if your a moderator let me know if its ok to post info so others can buy the kit too

I would like to know where you picked up these HIDs. Can you PM me the information? That color change is what I am looking for. I don't like the factory orange/yellow tint. I am looking for more a of solid white or even a slight bluish tint.

Thanks in advance!

I was thinking about getting a set of HID's since the prius comes with projectors from the factory. But was always worried that it would somehow mess with the electronics which is basically what the whole car is made up of.

Is this truly a plug and play where it attaches to the factory connectors with no modifications necessary?

As HTMLSpinnr said, you're allowed to post the company you bought it from. Do share how you've installed yours. As you can tell, there are a number of folks here that would like to upgrade.

Would love to see pics of where you mounted the ballast and the company you used as well.
