Better HID kit for factory HIDs on Limited


Recommended Posts

Believe it or not, the HIDs on the Edge Limited are average by best. My wife's HIDs on her Kia Sportage blow mine out of the water. I have a 2011 Limited and I know the bulbs are D3S. What bulb other than the D3S would fit in the housing for my Limited with HIDs? I have no issue wiring up my vehicle to support a different ballast package, just need to know what bulbs fit without modifications.

You can try the Philips Xenon X-tremeVision, which claim up to 50% more light (compared to standard HID), though I've never seen them on a vehicle so I can't say my opinion.

But they are expensive, ~100 USD each bulb!

$100 a bulb is not expensive for the D3S so that might be an alternative. However, I was thinking more along the lines of putting a kit from DDM or Xenon Supply in using the D2S bulb, would that bulb fit in the housing without issue and then I would wire up the ballasts, etc... If someone could give me some feedback that would be great.

I am also open to other alternatives.
