Some of the dash lights in the FTO work the same way, they have a blue pastic cap over them to turn the yellowish / orange light into a whiter light, so it looks better on your guages.

So how much is the cheapest you can get a set of HIDs for an fto?

I know there are two different ones you can get...one is the h4 style so that it has the high beam and low beam...all HIDs..
The other one is the 9006 ones which are just the low beams...

So how much for the 9006 ones?

Any one know?

Thanks,

Actually i've find both 9006 & H4 had Bi-Xennon kits available (low/high beam) So basically u can use both. I had 9006 before, & now i'm using H4. I was told that 9006 was the older term for H4....anyone want 2 clarify this???

No,

H4 is those bulbs that go in your average family cars that has high beam and low beam in one. So you would see two filaments in the bulb.

The 9006 is the low beam for your FTO and it only has one filament in the bulb.

Trust me, I used to work in a car accessories shop and used to sell these all the time.
