Default HID Lights

so i went today and tried to get HID lights 10k installed on my 96 rs conv. the place whree i went said that they could not install the lights due to the bulb type preexistng in the car and that there wasent enough room for the hid buld. They sad to look at the PIAA website for a fix but im not finding anything. I know people with a 4th gen with HID's im now trying to figure out how they got them in there. The real problem is there is truley not enough light from the blbs i have in there now. I went to autozone and they said that i already hae the brightest bulbs they sell. The lamps are clear and clean; however, my low beams are dimmer than my fog lights. my high beams look lke low beams. y wife has a suv with stock bulbs and it completly outshines my car. im not looking to blind people but beig in seattle it would be nice to see in the dark withthe rain. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again guys i know i can count on you.

Get these: http://www.eurolamps.com/eurolamps/c...headlights.htm

Then get the hid kit for the 9004 and 9005 bulbs.

Also if you get the xenon bulbs that are 8000 for lows and 12000 for highs you'll be able to see once again.

Are you a member of any PNW camaro clubs? I live in Tacoma area and am looking for a Camaro club that has some good people in it to hang out with and make some new friends.

The PNWCC is the only one I have heard of around here and yea they are not the best about replies. I want a strong club that I can join that we can have fun with. Not just guys that say their car is better because... I had that with the Mustang Club in Kitsap Co. when I owned my pony. I also dont like clubs with people that think the only really nice cars (any car) is the top of the line big $$$ car. My little 3.8L Camaro is pretty nice, and while I may not make the fastest times in the 1320 I sure can have just as much fun as they can.

Getting anything higher than 6000K is pointless if you're looking for being able to see. 4300 or 5000 is the way to go. Anything else is just for looks.
