very do-able. They sell 55watt HID kits, where we have 35watt HID kits...it's overkill IMO.

Still confused here as to why people are trying to "upgrade" these. I don't know about everyone else's HID's but mine are really really bright.

The only "upgrade" I could imagine getting would be so they behaved like the ones on the Lexus', so that they automatically adjust for inclines, declines, and turns. Now that would be an upgrade considering the sharp cut-off.

I was actually disappointed in my HID's cuz my roomate's IS300 has the automatic adjustment, but the S2k doesn't.

Very true. We get jipped in so many ways compare to other cars. Like where's our power door button? All the other cars these days all come with HID adjustment.
