That's super interesting, HID Concept does indeed claim to have rebased Xtreme Vision and Ultinon bulbs. Would be fun to test them out against other H11 offerings like I've done before. Wonder if they're real. FOr those crazy prices I'd hope so! Basic 85122 rebased H11s are $120, and Xtreme Vision H11s are $190!!!

You're biting the wrong bullet. Swap the H1 setup for a proper D2S setup. Worlds of a difference.
But just looking at the pictures the 5500K you tested looks bluer than the 6500K you tested.
Also my Toyota Camry will not house a D2S projector unfortunately! But Ill try those rebased XVs on my next setup which would be a MH1 7.0 with Hylux 45W Ballasts.
I live maybe 15 Miles from you guys so Ill be emailing ya soon so I can have it professionally done.

The main reason for getting D2S bulbs is alignment, and that's useless for H1 based projectors. There are bulbs that reach close to the intensity of an OEM bulb but cost a fraction of the money.
What model of Camry?

the 2010 model and up, had the changed in the front, you can see the headlight is different and bumper is different. from what i have seen the before 2010 is a 2.5 lens, the 2010 and up is the 3 inch, thats why you will see that the rx350 will work.

Yes Im limited to the mini H1, 07 Acura MDX projectors or gambling on eBay.
Id rather just shim and call it a day. I have some new 5500Ks now and the green is all but gone about a week after installation, but as soon as hidconcepts restocks the XVs Im gonna grab a set and take some pics
/edit/ well I’ll be darned!! HIDconcep has a 2.5 inch D2S projector!!! But it’s sold out! gonna have to investigate thisLast edited by mikedexion; April 9th, 2018, 11:46 AM.
