S6 lights



I don't know if anyone has replied to this so...

As far as the dealer here in Boulder as well as sales literature for the new 
S6 are concerned the high intensity gas discharge headlamps will not be 
available until later 1998. Perhaps the color you are seeing is a 
combination of the non-hid technology coupled with the color of the lens in 
the projector beam unit?

On more of a dreaming note...

Wouldn't a great upgrade for existing lighting technology be an upgrade kit 
that replaces your H4 (or 9004 / 9006) bulb with a gas discharge cell (I 
don't think they call them bulbs) and a wiring harness that includes the 
ballast to run them? You would be able to keep your existing light housings, 
yet you could reap the benefit of HID technology? I know that both PIAA and 
Hella make auxiliary lighting applications that use this same principle. Now 
if only the gas discharge cell fit into my Euro assemblies.
