I like the idea of real HIDS (not halogen) on my car. However, dont most conventional HID systems offer only single intensity beaming? Brights are usually a second pair of halogens? If this is correct, a two light system like on 70 and 72-74 model Cudas you would have to add secondary lighting to pull it off. Anyone done this with aftermarket HIDS or from a junkyard retrofit? I like the HID lighting, not sure what an Ebody would look like with front projectors!

Not sure about a video, but I can do before/after tips.

Anyone have recommendations on a method to align the headlights once they are in?
