Installation on HID Bulbs
Your replacement HID bulbs will be
easy to install if you have access to the
area behind the Headlight assembly.
Once you have access to the bulbs, a
short twist and pull will remove them.
You should remove the old HID bulbs
first before handling the new bulbs to
lessen the chance of contaminating the
new bulb with oil from dirty hands which
will shorten bulb life.

Vehicles with HID Headlights
Today, nearly every auto manufacturer is
making a vehicle equipped with High
intensity Discharge / HID lighting in the
headlamps.
HID bulbs will only fit vehicles that are
equipped with HID (a.k.a. Xenon) lighting
from the manufacturer. We carry the
following sizes to fit virtually every vehicle
made with High Intensity Discharge
lighting since 1998. We offer D1S bulbs,
D1R bulbs, D2S bulbs, D2R bulbs, D3S
bulbs, D4S bulbs, and D4R bulbs.
Toyota has started to use new HID bulbs
called HID-D4S. The D4S can be seen in
2007 and newer Avalon, Lexus IS, GS,
and LS models. Other new Toyota
vehicles will use the HID-D4R bulbs.

HID Arc Lamp Technology
HID Bulbs use "arc-lamp" technology that
has been around for many years in
industrial applications.
In contrast to conventional bulbs that pass
electricity through a thin wire filament, an
arc-lamp uses higher voltage electricity to
create an "arc" of electricity between two
metal electrodes.
When the electrodes are encased by glass
in a small space, the HID "burner" is
created. Trace amounts of noble elements
and xenon gas are introduced to the HID
burner, and a light 3 times brighter than
filament based lighting is produced.
History of HID Headlights
In 1996, Lincoln became the first brand of
automobile to introduce HID Headlights to
the world. From 1996 - 1998 the Lincoln
Mark VIII used the slightly large and now
hard to come by HID-9500 bulb. (We do
not carry them). In 1997, other
manufactures began to follow suit with use
of the D2R bulb platform. HID-D2R bulbs
were then closely followed by HID-D2S
bulbs introduced by BMW and the rest is
History! Today, vehicles are still being
made with D2R and D2S bulbs but the
auto manufacturers have started to use
newer HID-D1S, HID-D1R, HID-D3S,
HID-D4R, and HID-D4S bulbs. HID-D4R
bulbs are used on the 2006 - 2009.
Replacement HID bulbs in all sizes are
always in stock for same day shipment.

HID-D2S Bulbs
HID-D2R Bulbs
The difference between D2R and D2S
bulbs is the ceramic paint located on the
quartz capsule of D2R bulbs. The
ceramic paint makes the D2R bulb ideal
for applications that use reflection
aiming instead of projection through a
lens to illuminate the road.
