how do hids perform in the winter?

edit: more specifically do they take longer to turn on or flicker?

I couldn't really tell any difference that was temperature dependent.

I cant find anyone who has projector headlights with HID's. Is this just not possible.

There are a few on here, and it's probably the best setup other than a true factory HID setup because putting the HID in a halogen projector causes a lot less glare to other drivers and more focused light than it does by putting them in a halogen reflector (the stock headlight).

Had a customer in last night with a new 08 Superduty and he had the head's and fog's 6000k kit from Xenonking. They look great I must say. Has anyone here gotten a kit from them? Would like to know if it is a good quality kit and all. I really liked the looks and want to do this to my screw. Also, do you still have high beams or no? Thanks....

Well, I havent gottan my 12,000k from xenonking yet. Should be in soon, actaully. But A local F150 owner has the kit from xenonking (Where I got the idea of buying my). Anyways, he said the kit it a very good quality kit and you will still have you high's. Also make sure you get the McCULLOCH kit instead of the visionpro kit. Ill let you know when I get my kit in and installed.

Factory HIDs are 4300K, they don't look orange to me!

here is another chart down the page that can tell you what source puts out what kind of lite on the kelvin scale http://www.aeimages.com/learn/color-correction.html

edit- search for color temp scale and find a lot of info
