xenon bulbs are HID
i doubt they came with HID

And your dropzone shocks... they'll blow too, you might want to return them and get something else. I had a set for 6 months and blew the rears. Do it right the first time and get something better.


Just lettin' you know

well they're hid imitations then. they're bright enough too, brighter than my regular headlights.

and i have a friend that has had dropzones on his hatch for 4 years now. still work perfectly. i'm only looking for a 1 & 3/4 inch drop so they shouldn't blow

but im broke.
i just bought a full set of strut bars.

and i have read alot of reviews and everything seems good.

how much did you lower your so that they blew?

because i only wanted 2 inches on days when i go to car meets.

any other time the "0" inch drop is good because i need to replace my other ones anyway.

What I blew were dropzone shocks, not coilovers. Still though, I haven't heard anything good about dropzone anything.
