The Best HID Kits for 2017 – Buyers Guide + Reviews
High-Intensity Lamps, or HID headlights, offer a higher intensity light and produce less heat than standard Halogen headlights. They illuminate a larger area of the road and provide a clearer line of sight for the driver, but not all cars come with HID lights fitted. Fortunately, HID installation is easier than you might think and it provides you with access to these and other benefits.
Before buying HID lights, you should understand the different markings and ratings for each headlight. You will also need this information in the future because if you replace Xenon headlights with incorrect bulbs, you could damage the headlight kit.
In this guide, we not only provide you with details of the best HID kits on the market today, but we also provide guidance on how to choose which kit is best for you. Not all headlights are created equal, and different cars have different requirements. What might be best for one vehicle is not necessarily best for yours.

Xtreme Vision 35W HID Xenon Conversion Kit – A Cheap HID Conversion Kit With Full Phone And Email Tech Support
HID conversion kits are designed to be as simple as possible to install in your car, but this doesn’t mean that we won’t come up against some problems during the process. Despite being one of the cheaper kits on the market, the Xtreme Vision HID headlight conversion kit includes full tech support by phone or email.
Plug And Play Installation
Xenon headlights do not simply plug straight into an existing halogen headlight setup. This means that you need to convert a car from halogen to Xenon, and this is the reason for having to buy headlight conversion kits.
Fortunately, good manufacturers have identified this need and, thus, they have manufactured plug and play wiring and conversion kits. The pieces and wires simply clip or snap together. You don’t need to cut wires or strip them, and this makes it a lot easier to complete the installation.
The Xtreme Vision HD conversion kit is plug and play, is very easy to use, and enables you to convert your car from standard to HID headlights in about 30 minutes.
Selection Of Kit And Bulb Options
Ensuring a proper fit is essential if you want to enjoy good illumination and a long life from your kit. The Xtreme Vision kit is available in a range of sizes so that you can ensure your new headlights are the perfect fit for your car. This means that they will last longer and continue to provide better illumination than your standard headlights.
The 35W kit comes with the following color and temperature options:
​3000K – Bright Yellow
​5000K – Bright White
​6000K – Light Blue
​8000K – Medium Blue
​10000K – Dark Blue
​12000K – Deep Purple
15000K – Deep Pink
30000K – Deep Blue
What’s In The Kit?
As you would expect with a conversion kit, you do get all the essentials that you need to make the conversion:
2 bulbs
2 35W slim ballasts
2 plug and play wiring harnesses
2 mounting brackets
Easy-to-follow installation manual.
The only possible downside with this kit is that you don’t get the double-sided tape and zip ties that you do with the similarly priced Apex kit.
Quality And Support
However, while the Xtreme Vision kit may not be replete with tape and ties, what it lacks here it makes up for in support. Free tech support is available both over the phone and by email, so if you are having any problems with the installation or conversion, you can get the help you need.
Pros
Very competitively priced
Tech support by email and phone
2 Year Warranty
Cons
Not quite the same extent of extras as in some other kits
Slightly less color range than some premium kits

Upgrade Your Halogen lights to Xenon
Most modern cars come with standard halogen headlights. Halogen bulbs heat a wire filament within the bulb to create light. This is an inefficient means of producing light, and it also means that the light produced can be quite dim.
In contrast, High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lights, do not have a wire filament. The bulb is filled with Xenon glass, and two electrodes pass a current that ignites the gas. Once the gas is lit, a much smaller current is required to keep them lit, and these types of bulb produce a much more exuberant light.
Many people choose to upgrade from their halogen lights to HID lights, either because they want brighter headlights, or because they prefer the look of this type of light. HID lights burn at different temperatures, per the model that you buy, and different temperatures produce different looking colors.
Benefits Of Xenon Headlights
There are several distinct advantages to the purchase and installation of HID headlights, and therefore they have grown in popularity with owners of cars, vans, motorbikes, and off-road vehicles. In fact, they have many viable uses, and they offer the following benefits to users.
Improved Lighting And Visibility
Halogen headlights are only capable of producing a dim yellow light because they are relying on the heating of wire filament and the use of mirrors to help direct the light produced. In contrast, HID bulbs do not rely on filaments at all.
They produce a much brighter light, which means improved driving visibility and a much wider range of lighting. When driving in especially dark conditions, this improved lighting can prove essential to the driver.
Better Looking
The temperature at which Xenon burns alters the color of the lamp. It is not uncommon to see white lights with a blue tinge on the roads, but this is only one of several different colors of Xenon headlights you can buy for your car.
It is this choice of colors, as well as the perception that Xenon lights are cool, that has helped drive their popularity over the years. When buying a conversion kit, you will often be given the choice of what temperature you want, enabling you to pick a color.
It is important to remember that many factors will ultimately determine the color, so while temperature is the most important, it isn’t the only consideration. The voltage that is used and the atmosphere play a part, but different people can look at the same Xenon light and see slightly different colors.
The color associated with a particular temperature should, therefore, only be used as a general guide, because there is no guarantee that this is the color that you will see once you fit your new lights.
More Efficient Than Halogen
Another popular reason for selecting HID lights over replacement halogen lights is the increased efficiency that they offer. A much higher voltage is required to light the bulbs, compared to lighting a halogen headlight, but once lit, minimal voltage is needed in order to retain the light.
Also, halogen relies on the heating of a filament, and it is well known that this type of lighting is inefficient and ineffective. In fact, many countries have banned the use of this type of light in homes, but they are still used in the production of cars.
The Drawbacks Of Xenon Kits
There are many benefits to Xenon headlights but, as with anything, there are potential drawbacks. If you intend to replace your existing lights using a replacement kit, you should be aware of the drawbacks of doing so, in order that you can make an informed decision.
Questionable Legality
You should check the legal situation regarding the use of Xenon headlights in your area. There have been concerns, many of which turned out to be unfounded, regarding whether this type of light was safe for other road users when deployed in a car. As such, some countries and some states do not strictly allow their use. Check before you install.
Fog Lighting
There have also been reports that Xenon headlights do not perform as well in foggy situations. Apparently, the type of light that is produced can reflect on the moisture particles in fog, because of the intensity of the light.
Xenon headlights are often used as fog lights, so do ensure that you can see properly when you use HID lamps, especially in difficult driving conditions such as fog.
What To Look For When Buying A HID Conversion Kit?
Even though modern kits are more efficient and simpler to use than they once were, there are still certain factors that you should consider when considering which HID kit is best for your needs:
Affordability
In an ideal world, the cost would not be an issue, but in the real world, the budget is important. Some kits, especially those for late model and high-end cars, do have a premium price tag. The conversion is more complex, and the parts more expensive; hence the higher price.
If you have a vehicle that is older or does not require additional conversion, then you don’t need to pay over the odds. The prices of some of the best HID kits are barely any more expensive than buying replacement bulbs for existing halogen or LED lighting arrays.
Ease Of Installation
Most people buy an HID light kit because it includes everything that they need in order to make the conversion, negating the need to buy additional parts or make extra changes to the vehicle itself.
When buying a kit, do make sure that it is easy to install. This not only means making sure that you buy the right kit for your car, but that the kit you do purchase has an instruction manual or guide that takes you through the process, step by step.
Warranty
Modern lighting kits tend to be high quality. They include high-quality parts that are designed specifically for the purpose of converting car headlights from halogen to HID. With the proper installation, by ensuring that you buy the right kit for your make and model of car, and by following the instructions, you shouldn’t have any problems with your new lights.
Unfortunately, though, problems can sometimes occur, as they can when you buy any product or any part for your vehicle. By ensuring that you buy a kit that comes complete with a manufacturer’s warranty, you can enjoy peace of mind that any problems you endure can be resolved quickly and easily.
In most cases, you will receive either a 12-month or 2-year warranty. Obviously, a 2-year warranty is preferred, but remember that most problems will occur immediately following installation, so don’t instantly ignore any kits simply because they only have the shorter warranty period.
Customer Support
Instructions are designed to be easy to follow, and the kits usually only require two or three steps. Kit manufacturers have honed the process, making it even easier than ever before to install this type of light on your vehicle, but no matter how high the quality of the kit, you may have some problems during installation.
Customer support and technical support exists to remedy any of these problems that arise. You can contact the technical team, and they will provide you with assistance. Most companies offer at least email support, but phone support means that you won’t have to wait before you can complete the conversion process.
Compatibility
Different makes and model of car, and different years of car have different engine and light configurations. Even two seemingly identical cars may have a slightly different lighting array arrangement, and this may necessitate the use of a different conversion kit.
Check the style of lighting you have, buy a compatible conversion kit, and you should find that this eliminates many of the potential problems that could be faced during the installation of the kit. If a kit does not list compatibility, then you may be best walking away and looking at a different model.

UPDATED for 2017: In this guide, we will cover the best led headlight kits for YOUR vehicle. Just don’t forget to match the right size for your headlight housing. Whether you own a vehicle that’s brand new or a car that’s ten years old, you need headlights you can count on. It’s easy to overlook the importance of having dependable headlights until the bulbs on your vehicle go out or lose their brightness.
Of course, every light source has its lifespan and will eventually need replacement. There’s a catch, however: different kinds of light bulbs have varying brightness, visibility, and lifespans. What’s more, some headlights are more energy efficient than others.
The main thing to know when selecting an option for your sedan, truck, or RV is that there are three main types of headlights: Halogen, HID, and LED.

Halogen lights are probably the most common type of lights. Up until recently, they were the standard for vehicle production. The big reason for their success is that they are inexpensive.
Halogen bulbs feature a tungsten filament inside surrounded by halogen gas. As the filament heats up inside of the glass it produces a bright off-white light. These particular bulbs have been around for years. Having saturated the market, halogen lights are fairly easy to find and cheaper to replace.
But, despite their popularity, halogen lights actually cost more to run. That’s because they produce more heat than they do light. You might be especially familiar with this fact if you’ve ever made the mistake of accidentally touching your car’s headlights after running the vehicle for some time.
You’ll instantly know a halogen headlight because it produces a great deal of heat. In turn, that heat produces light. However, because these lights produce so much heat they actually use up a large amount of energy, making them incredibly inefficient.
Another option is to go with bright HID, or Xenon lights. These headlights are powered by two electrodes instead of a heated filament, making them more energy efficient. What’s more, these bulbs produce more light with less energy.
Although they are a little more expensive than their halogen counterparts, these lights are the best if you’re looking for an affordable option that’s far more efficient.
On the other hand, there’s one huge downside to xenon headlights that makes them a poor solution: they’re very fragile. In fact, the HID lights are so delicate that manufacturers actually recommend installing them while wearing gloves, since even the natural oils on your hand can cause the bulbs to crack.
While they provide more light and produce less heat, in the long run, these specific lights also prove to a pricey choice since you’ll have to replace the fragile bulbs regularly.
Which is why your best bet is to invest in LED headlights. Today, LEDs are becoming the more common standard for vehicle manufacturing, in part because of their efficiency. Unlike halogen or xenon headlights, LED headlights are run by electrons, which mean they don’t generate as much heat and have a long lifespan.
Even better, these lights are worth every cent you spend on them know—lasting more than ten times as long as your average headlights. You’ll rarely have to replace your LED headlights, which is exactly why they’re the best investment for cars or trucks. Choosing LED headlights for trucks is an especially wise decision because these lights lend more visibility.
Once you’ve decided that LED headlights are right for you, another problem presents itself. While LEDs are a higher quality light compared to other options, you still have to weed through the plethora of varieties to find the very best choices for the money.
Don’t get left in the dark. Whether you’re looking for the best LED headlights for trucks, motorcycles, or sedans, you can use this LED headlight and LED headlight kit review to find the best headlights.
  Top 10 LED Headlight Kit Reviews (Top 10 We Picked)
10. Spec-D Tuning – Good Inexpensive LED Kit Option
If you own a vehicle that you plan to keep around for a long time, but need to replace the bulbs and are looking to upgrade, then you’ll enjoy the Spec-D Tuning headlight Bulbs Cree LED Conversion Kit. With this LED Headlight kit designed by Cree, you can take advantage of the benefits of the latest technology even if your vehicle is a little bit older. It’s easy to install, affordable, and relatively versatile—compatible with a wide range of vehicles from a truck to a sports car.
Spec-D Tuning
The best thing about this kit is that it’s built to last. It comes with a lifetime warranty, which lasts for the more than 25,000 hours of light this product is designed to provide. Given that this LED headlight kit is designed to be both affordable and highly functional, this is the best option if your looking for a long-lasting product that won’t put a huge dent in your wallet.
The bulbs used in this particular kit are structured to minimize the amount of heat they produce, allowing them to last for long. With these LED headlights you’ll notice major differences in brightness and clarity, especially if you’re converting from halogen lights. Not only do Cree LEDs provide a beam that is both brighter in color, but they also generate a beam that is broader, enhancing visibility by almost double. While these bulbs are the best deal for the price, reviews have cited a few flaws during installation.
Firstly, these bulbs don’t fit into all headlight housing equally. Sometimes you’ll find that these bulbs don’t fill the entire lamp with light, simply because it doesn’t fit exactly with the particular design or size of that case. Another problem is that the bulbs don’t lock into place, which can cause you to over tighten them.
  9. Auxbeam F-16 – Quality LED Headlight Bulbs with CREE Chips Built-In
One of the best things about Cree LED headlights is that they’re famous for their clarity and soft white color. Which is why these Auxbeam LED headlight bulbs are the best choice if you’re looking for LED headlights that are powerful but not blinding. Conversion and installation with this LED headlight kit are also fast and easy. Many reviewers report that installation is just as easy as putting in standard halogen lights, especially on new vehicle models.
Auxbeam LED Headlight Bulbs F-16
Something that makes these Auxbeam lights stand out amongst other LED headlights available on the market is the quality of its make. Like all Auxbeam headlights, these kits are designed to be durable—made with the same aluminum used on airplane headlights. For that reason, these LED headlights have a higher tolerance for dust and water.
Another perk associated with this unit is that it can also be fitted for projector housing—the best-LED headlight for cars made in the years between 2012-2014 especially.
While these are high-quality lights, they suffer one major drawback. Unfortunately, they aren’t as versatile as some other competitors on the market and are compatible with a select range of vehicles. Before purchasing these super bright LED headlights, double-check the measurements and size of your vehicle’s housing. In most cases, you’ll find that these headlights are more suited to serve as projectors light rather than reflector lights.
  8. Vplus X Series – Best NEW RELEASED LED Conversion Kit
A big problem that many users run into with LEDs is that, although they tend to be brighter than halogen lights, they can either seem too bright or simply not bright enough. The Vplus X Series changes all of that. This LED Headlight kit eliminates any problems you might encounter with dark spots and beams that are non-linear.
Vplus X Series
Since the units in this kit tend to be a bit brighter compared to more traditional lighting methods, they also provide more visibility. Even compared to other LED kits, the Vplus X series give off a broader scope of lighting, with the capacity to illuminate an entirely residential street if you’re using the high beams.
Despite their clarity, there are a few pitfalls to the structure of these LEDs. Unlike a lot of other models, these bulbs aren’t designed to last. While other manufacturers incorporate fans to cool the headlights, this product features no fans.
Since reducing the amount of heat these lights produce is the secret to extending their lifespan, the lack of the fan makes the bulbs prone to getting too hot. The hotter the lamps get, the less amount of time they will last. Additionally, several reviewers cite that the LEDs actually interfere with the radio frequency on their vehicles. The product also has a very narrow scope of vehicles its compatible with, despite coming in 14 different sizes. Always check with the manufacturer’s information to see if the headlight model will fit your vehicle.
  7. Alla Lighting CSP – 8000 Lumens of Bright White Light LED Kit
If you’re in need of a versatile LED headlight kit that has the capacity to fit almost any vehicle with little to no hassle during installation, then you can’t go wrong with the Alla lighting CSP Xtremely Bright Conversion Kit. Whether you own a model 2000 truck or a newer vehicle, installing these headlights is quick and painless. In most cases, you just plug them in and are ready to go.
Alla Lighting New CSP Xtremely Bright
These LED headlights are the best option for individuals looking to upgrade from halogen to something much brighter. Additionally, these are some of the best LED headlights for trucks. One thing to keep in mind, however, is that this kit is powerful and can be somewhat distracting to other drivers.
Some reviewers even report being unable to see the smaller watt light on their vehicle because these bulbs emit so much light. Another issue with this kit is that you can occasionally hear the fan running. During cooler weather, the volume is relatively low, with the fan just emitting a light hum. However, as the weather heats up, the sound gets comparatively louder.  Considering that this unit is priced at mid-range, however, users get more versatility and durability for their money, making these the best LED headlights for this price.
  6. XtremeVision 7G – Surprisingly BRIGHT Kit For 10% Less $$$
XtremeVision 7G 72W 16,000LM
With a lifespan of 30,000 hours, the XtremeVision Dual Beam LED conversion kit is an affordable and durable option for anyone looking for an upgrade. Made with aviation aluminum, these are the best LED Headlights for those who live areas where storms are regular. This kit is completely water resistant and is even backed by a two-year warranty, so you can rest assured that you’re investing in a product that’s designed to last. However, there are a couple of reasons why this kit ranks in at number six on the list. Firstly, although these beams are far brighter than regular halogen bulbs, you’ll be disappointed if you’re expecting the full brightness of 16,000 lumens. Most LED headlight reviews indicate that the actual brightness of these lights is more like 8,000 lumens. In order to take advantage of the full capacity of this kit, users will have to install a relay system that will draw power from the battery instead of the onboard system.
This LED headlight kit also features a fan, which keeps the bulbs cool and extends their lifetime. Like so many other brands, however, this kit has a very audible fan, which may cut down on convenience for some users.
  5. STCT Street Cat – Top Pick for Best Cheap Kit To Buy
Street Cat
For individuals not totally convinced that switching to LED is the right move for them, the Street Cat H11 LED Headlight Bulbs Conversion Kit is an inexpensive tester. These lights are compatible with almost any vehicle and are easy to install, with install taking as little as five minutes and a maximum of 20 minutes. The best thing about these headlights is that they’re very bright, delivering an estimated 4,000 lumens and nearly 30,000 hours of light. These bulbs are so bright that you’ll hardly use your high beams after installation. This product isn’t flawless, however. As is common with some LED headlights available on the market, this product can interfere—and even increase—the static feedback you’ll hear on your radio. Additionally, since this product is more inexpensive, it’s simply not designed to last as long as other kits. This particular model is more prone to cracking and even not functioning after some time.

4. JDM ASTAR G2 – Top Performing Set Of Lights For ANY Vehicle
JDM ASTAR G2
JDM ASTAR is known for making incredible products that are fairly priced and high quality—and that’s just what you’re getting with the JDM ASTAR G2 8000 Lumens LED headlights.

3. SNGL Super Bright LED – Most EXPENSIVE Headlight Kit, But Worth It
SNGL Super Bright
When your high beams need replacing, you can count on the SNGL Super bright LED headlight conversion kit. This is one of the best LED headlight kits on the market because of its fast, reliable, and last 50,000 hours—more than double the lifespan of most LED headlight kits available today.
The thing that distinguishes SNGL super bright lights from other products is its unique cooling system that helps keep the bulbs cool no matter the weather. While other types of lights feature a fan and occasionally a heat sink, this unit features a dual speed fan plus a control driver that protects the system from overheating—even if the fan doesn’t work—and an aluminum heat sink. The aluminum on these headlights is also designed to help keep them cool.
Of all the LED headlights on the market, this is probably one of the pricier kits—costing more than 150 dollars. Additionally, while this product is compatible with numerous vehicles, sometimes you’ll need modifications or an additional converter to make it compatible with your vehicle.

2. Kensun New Tech – Most Affordable Kit We Have With IMPRESSIVE Output
Kensun New Technology All-in-One LED
Since Cree chips are the best LED headlights in the country, it only makes sense that one of the best LED headlight manufacturers would depend on them when constructing a line of high-quality car beams. That’s exactly what Kensun did when it created it’s All-in-one LED headlight conversion kit.
This is a brand that’s known for making phenomenal LEDs for motorcycles, and they’ve extended that same clarity and visibility to other vehicles.

Part of what makes these Kensun lights so unique is that they are a high-quality option for a mid-range price.

The only real hitch with this particular LED Headlight kit is that the chips can experience failure after a short period time. With the two-year warranty, however, you can count on the manufacturer to replace any flawed units.

Although halogen lights are comparatively inexpensive, in the long run, they actually can cost more to use because they use a considerable amount of energy to run. These particular lights are structured in a way that makes them more effective at producing heat than light, which means they use up more energy.
Halogen lights are designed using a tungsten filament surrounded by a chamber of halogen gas—hence the name. As the current passes through the filament, it heats up and emits light. However, the excess heat actually means that the filament is being worn through at a faster rate, which is why many halogen lamps need regular replacement.
HID, or Xenon lights are an effective solution because they aren’t made with a filament that burns out. Instead, they rely on a xenon gas chamber that is powered by an electrical current. As the gas heats up, it emits light.
The reason that HID headlights is more preferred than halogen that because they save energy and, therefore, last longer. In some cases, HID headlights can produce more than 3 times the amount of light produced by halogen while using about 80 percent less energy.
Not all HID headlight bulbs are the same though. One of the reasons why HID headlights can be intimidating for many drivers is because of their fragility. These particular bulbs can be incredibly delicate to the touch, and can easily crack, break, or simply die out over time.
Of course, the more inexpensive the unit is, the more likely this is to be a problem. Pricier HID headlights are simply designed with materials of higher quality, so they last for lengthier periods of time.
Additionally, this higher level of fragility makes these lights a more expensive option since they’re prone to malfunctioning at quicker rates. On the other hand, the brightness behind HID lights out ways their flaws.
However, finding a set of bright HID lights that are both durable and affordable as possible. This review is designed to work as your handbook to the best HID headlights on the market.
We’ve done research and looked out countless reviews to find the top eight conversion kits for your vehicle. Read on to discover the best HID bulbs you can find today.

The biggest problem that most drivers experience with HID headlights is that the bulbs are incredibly delicate and sensitive to even the slightest change in pressure or even touch. That’s not the case with SDX kits however.
These kits are designed to be shock-proof, water-resistant, and capable of withstanding fairly dismal weather. The slimmer ballasts also make these lights compatible with a wider range of vehicles.

When it comes to headlights, the XENTEC 6000k Hi/Lo HID conversion kit lands in the top four of the best HID headlights in light of its affordability, brightness—up to 3,500 lumen—and ease of installation, making conversion quick and painless.
XENTEC HID
Additionally, these HID headlight bulbs are designed to limit the amount flickering you experience with your headlights and are specifically tested to reduce that effect.
If you do happen to notice excessive flickering, you may want to reexamine the connection. It may be a problem with the power supply, as the manufacturer suggests.
Despite the claims that these HID headlights are supposed to last up to 5,000 hours, you may still experience some problems with quality. Remember, HID lights are incredibly sensitive and can burn out relatively quickly.
More inexpensive models only heighten that sensitivity. Another drawback to these specific HID headlight bulbs is that they’re designed with a set range of car compatibility, which means that certain vehicle models may require additional modification before installation.

5. OPT7 Blitz Bullet HID Kit
OPT7 Blitz Bullet HID
What sets this kit apart from others on the market is that it’s designed for maximum diversity. The bulbs on this product are designed to be small, making them a perfect match for almost any vehicle.
Yet, don’t let the size of the ballasts fool you. These HID light are about 357 percent brighter than traditional halogen headlights.
As an added bonus, this HID kit is truly plug in and play. Additionally, despite their affordable price, these bulbs are also backed by a two-year warranty.
Unfortunately, like a lot of other inexpensive HID conversion kits this unit isn’t designed to last forever, which is why it lands at number 5 on the list of the best HID kits on the market. Most reviewers report experiencing a problem—such as a dead bulb or flickering—after some time. Given that this is an affordable model, however, it’s a worthy investment if you’re looking to upgrade your lights without shelling out hundreds of dollars.
  6. Apex Xenon Hid Conversion Kit
Apex HID
With digital ballasts, easy installation, and a two-year manufacturer’s warranty, the Apex 9006/ Xenon HID Conversion Kit is one of the best in this price range.
Among online reviews, Apex is one of the most highly recommended brands when it comes to HID headlights. Even though their HID headlights are affordable, the company still makes an effort to ensure the best customer satisfaction and upholds the warranty with strict adherence.
Given that many HID headlight manufacturers have flooded the aftermarket, you’ll find that both Apex and their bulbs are a breath of fresh air when it comes to finding a company willing to do right by its customers.
These headlights are incredibly bright, with the capacity to light up very dark roads without depending on your high beams. The HID conversion kit comes in seven different colors, which range in temperature from 3,000k to 30,000k. These lamps also have the capacity to last up to ten times longer than standard HID headlights.
The real pitfall of this conversion kit is the ballasts. The ballasts used on this particular kit have the tendency to malfunction relatively quickly, with some reviews citing a problem in as little as a week. On the other hand, what really makes this HID conversion kit worth every penny is the company, which is willing to replace problem parts.
7. SDX Headlight DC Xenon “Premium” HID Headlight Kits
If you’re in need of headlights that are very bright, then the SDX HID headlight DC Xenon “premium” conversion kit might just be the best product for you. With this kit, you can get HID headlights that are up to 15,000 k.

In most cases, if you experience problems with your bulbs you can call the manufacturer and they will help you troubleshoot the issue. If that doesn’t solve the problem, they usually will replace them.
Considering the price, these HID headlights are a great option for anyone seeking conversion to a set of headlights that will last for a long time. However, they aren’t issue-free. Since they are made of inexpensive materials, these lights are more prone to experiencing troubleshooting issues, like flickering, or simply dying out quickly.
8. OPT7 Bolt AC 55w Hi-Power HID Headlight Kit
The nice thing about the OPT7 Bolt HID Kit is that it comes in multiple colors, which is perfect for those who don’t like the blue-white color of LEDs. With this kit, bulbs come in yellow, Ice blue, deep blue, or lightening blue. Installing these lights is also fast and easy, thanks to its plug in and play design.
OPT7 Bolt
Since this product is designed by OPT7, a company that’s known for making affordable headlights, you can have confidence that these HID headlight bulbs are bright and fairly durable. This kit is even backed by a two-year manufacturer’s warranty.
Unfortunately, you may just find that you’ll have to depend on this warranty, which is why this unit is last on the list of the best HID headlights. Although it is affordable—and one of the best HID kits–you may just find that you get what you pay for.
Many reviews report that these HID headlights simply stop working in as little as one week. OPT7 can and does replace headlights that stop working—as long as it’s within the terms of the warranty. However, having to regularly replace the headlights may be an issue of convenience for some drivers.
