Hid Kits

[///BHRpowered]

Still incorrect, NHSTA/DOT call's HID's "Non-filament bulbs"

 

HID's, and to be even more proper, capsules.

 

MARKER lights

Nighttime standing-vehicle conspicuity to the front is provided by "front position lamps",[15] known as "parking lamps" or "parking lights" in North America,[5] and "front sidelights" in British English.[19] Despite the UK term, these are not the same as the sidemarker lights described below. The front position lamps may emit white or amber light in North America;[5] elsewhere in the world they must emit only white light.[15] Colloquial city light terminology for front position lamps[20] derives from the practice, formerly adhered to in cities like Moscow, London and Paris, of driving at night in built-up areas using these low-intensity lights rather than headlamps.[21] It is now illegal in many countries to drive a vehicle with parking lamps illuminated, unless the headlamps are also illuminated. The UK briefly required Dim-Dip lights, described below, in an attempt to optimise the level of light used at night in built-up areas.

 

Some should add to that wiki what BHR calls them and refer to this thread.

 

PS. Got the cheap ebay kit, waiting for the harness from HK.

BHR is world overlord. [citation needed]

[///BHRpowered]

not just bhr, every single lighting based forum, including hidplanet which has reps from actually automakers posting.

 

MARKER LIGHTS. Parking lots is not only retarded it describes nothing. "Parking lights" are actually interior only lights/mirror lights. so when you PARK you can see getting out.

[Frankzao]

So what's a dome light?

[Troutman]

Must be the dome-shaped tail lamps.

[enginph]

So what's a dome light?

 

Overheadlight.

 

 

[Troutman]

[///BHRpowered]

a dome light is for interior lighting at any time when light is needed

My overheadlight turns on whenever the door is open, to tell people that I am here.

[///BHRpowered]

BHR requires no annoucement. In the millenia I have it set so only the door lights come on, nothing else.

 

Very upscale lounge feeling

[enginph]

I turn the parking lights on before leaving the car to tell that I successfully parked my car.

[Troutman]

[Frankzao]

My parking light stay on after I park my milly to show that i too was successful at parking it.....

[///BHRpowered]

So what your sayingis that your turning on your MARKER lights to MARK where the car is. Not thatthis really does anything since you can't fully tell anyway.

 

Just look at the damn window, parking isn't a completed task...atleast not for most.

 

Zao just leaves his lights on and lets the autoshut off kick in, like an animal.

BHR refuses to use auto lights, and especially those fucking auto wipers.

[Frankzao]

your milly has an auto wipe feature? does it crap its pants much?

[Troutman]

Zao is an animal?

[///BHRpowered]

it does not, but both audi and jeep do. I hate auto anything.

 

your driving not sitting in a lounge chair, PAY ATTENTION

[Frankzao]

so the audi and jeep crap their pants.....good thing they have auto wipe

[///BHRpowered]

No auto anything

[Troutman]

What about cruise control.

[///BHRpowered]

Don't use it, and its certainly not something automatically engaged

[enginph]

Don't use it, and its certainly not something automatically engaged

 

ABS?

[///BHRpowered]

Don't like ABS, and on the jeep when offroading I do infact pull the fuse.

 

plus thats safety, which is slightly different, I do think traction control should always have a 100% off button, but things that are just lazy is stupid.

 

if its raining put your wipers on, if it gets dark turn your headlights on, when it actually gets dark and not 36 hours before because a single shadow is on the road, fucking hate that.

 

-and on topic those autoheadlight systems cause damage to hid headlights by engaging under overpasses/tunnels etc then shutting back down. Your sitting there driving how many damn things are you doing.
