5th & 6th Generation (2002-2006 & 2007-2011)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 2002-2006 & 2007-2011
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
There will be a lot of people telling you to retrofit components from another OEM solution. If you're set on getting a kit (which most people do), just make sure that it comes with a relay harness because you don't wanna plug straight into the vehicle's stock harness for power. When the xenons ignire, the initial sudden power draw will cause damage over time.

It is a good thing for someone who doesn't want to open up their lights, or put together different lenses. For those that it's easy for, I'm happy for you. Similarly, someone may be very afraid of rebuilding their entire PC or laptop. Or replacing their broken screen on their cell phone. I would do this easily (but I recognize that for many other people, this would be too hard).
EuroPlate, I'm using the XtremeHID 4300K H11 kit from here:
That's why you buy a set of headlights and do them that way. Would make a lot of sense.

If the bulbs goes out on one of these kit, i assume any H11 HID bulb will work?
I bought the HID kit from BigDaddyMike. The kit name is BAC. It still working since last year. It even survived a round trip from San Diego to Las Vegas both driving at night.
I swapped the H11 bulbs from 8000k to 6000k because I wanted more light output.

I have a question to add, if you add an HID kit or an HID retrofit to your camry, will that cause any police issues in Colorado, Kansas, or Utah? Will you get pulled over for your headlights being too bright? Has anyone been pulled over for such a stupid issue?
Thanks

It will cause issues everywhere...adding a HID kit doing a retrofit is illegal in all states. If you're going to do it you have to be smart about it...cover up squirrel spotters and don't go too blue or purple. I would say stay below 8000K.
