[s-cars] Interesting read on HID conversions

[Mike P (530)]

Somewhere floating around on the web, and perhaps in my computer if I could
find it, is a photograph of a long, long, long ago midnight meeting of the
Colorado S-Car Mafia in which there were three S-cars parked side by side,
head lights on etc. giving an admittedly unscientific visual comparison of
the HID's vs. Eurolense w/Halogens vs. the OEM light housing and lenses with
DOT 900x (4 or 5's) bulbs.  

IMO Once you go HID, legal or not, you'll unfortunately never want to go
back.
