been doing searching with no concrete results
i have a busted headlight and i have HIDs
if i buy replacement headlights at a parts store will there be any problems?
i mean i can just put them in and then use my bulb that i have now right??

 

I'm a little confused, but you need to buy HID headlights if you have HIDS. If you have Halogen you need Halogen headlights.

 

even though the bulb and everything on my car is HID and im just buying the headlamp housing i still need HID based housing??

 

Yup, hid burner is completely different than halogen one.

 

well i ordered it already before finding out so we'll see guys thanks for the info, i can return it shipping wasa 10 so worst case i loose out on that

i dont understand why it wouldnt work
so how do you buy a replacement headlight i was searching for days and none of them said anything for HID it just gave you the prices and thats it

 

usually when you search it will specify "Halogen headlight" or "HID headlight"....... if your using aftermarket HIDs on halogen then it doesnt matter but if your replacing a factory equipped HID headlight then you will need that specific type of headlight... any pics or more specific details (link maybe) of the headlight you purchased
