The Xenons, or HIDs, are approx 3 times brighter than the halogen version, if you choose to go with the 4800K...
The halogens are still at least 35-40% brighter than our stock lights due to the superior projector optics. As far as the turn signal, it is not affected at all.
I've been asked if the headlights will be different in design. To answer your question, the Halogen and Xenon versions are identical to each other, with the Xenons having a slightly deeper projector. However, on the outside, there will be no differences.

HID hardware is expensive. $400 for a set of bulbs and ballasts is nominal. According to Milan, the projectors used in the halogen and HID headlamps are the same, but the HID version uses converted H7 HID capsules. IMHO not as great as purpose-built HID projectors with D2S bulbs, but an acceptable solution to keep costs down. Good job on the projectors anyway, by themselves they are a big improvement over stock reflectors. Hope this answers some questions.

How much install work? 3 screws, splice some wires, optionally secure the ballast, and you're done? What about the concerns of high current draw from HID? Can I turn these on with the engine off or do I toast my battery in one minute? They look nice. Brian Dors 99 SVT

Is there any possibility in sticking with the stock crap reflector for the high beam, and having the price discounted for 2 less projector lenses....not like you'd really need high beams with HID anyway  I wish the Canadian dollar would come outta the dumpster so the exchange wouldn't hurt so much  I need new brakes too, Milan you've given me some tough decisions to make....brake or see????
