folks, I want to know if anyone has experience with xenon lighting systems. If so, I'm guessing there is a lot of variance in manufacturers. If you've got a recommendation, please tell me why you'd be giving that recommendation, ok? You guys know that I'm true blue to you all, but I will be picking up a cute little '02 Mercedes pocket rocket next week. I'm considering adding the xenons to it. It's got everything else.
Thanks.
Paul

Ok, I see pics, but I don't know about the xenon systems. Help me out, guys.

Paul, are you looking for the H.I.D. type headlights? The ones with the transformers? I don't know anything specific about them except they are expensive or were a couple of years ago. The technology may be getting cheaper...you should look on evil-bay for a conversion kit

Maybe this is what you need

Marty, you can probably find pics of them installed if you look for Hot Rod / Street rod pics< I saw them in Street Rodder on a Duece I think the first time.

Don't you need a relay setup for those?

Thanks for the tip/lead, Chop. I bought one.
I think I want the H1 unit. I don't care what the color looks like, I want max visibility. It's not that I have any vision issues, but neither do I have vanity issues. I'm a utilitarian kind of guy.
Whatchu think?
