HID H4 headlight on fleabay

[Alan Nicholls]

I got a pair of thin ballasts and HID H4 bulbs for my GPZ for $70 locally.
I only had use for one, so I put the other one in my lady's EX250 :).  Don't
pay too much for HID's.  You might lose your high beams, but the light
output is amazing.  I can't even explain how many less people pull out in
front of me now.

Here's a picture of the light color after the install :D
