yeah it's a lot cheaper if you only need dual lows... I think it's like 160 or so...

from my understanding, it takes as few secs for HIDs to 'ignite' so in a case where one needs to quickly flash their lights, don't know how that will work. i may be wrong about the timing, but HID hi's will definitely get someone's attention.

It won't work. When I turn on my high beam, it takes it a few seconds to fully ignite.

it'll work fine for Cutty... as he said keep halogen HI's and HID lows... this will mean his HID will stay on all the time... and the halogen will only come on with HI's... so the only delay he'll have is when he starts the bike.

that's why i only did lows myself plus i don't use hi beam that often.

Yup.
But I wonder how much you would see the halogen's with the HID's on anyway??
