I too was wondering how the light would be with HID's. People who have done it report no oncoming cars flash, and they also report that the lights do not blind them when in another car. Here is the low beam with 35 watt HID installed. Pretty good cutoff. Not as good as projectors, but good enough that other motorists don't have a problem with them. If they don't work out, I'll just go back to halogens. BTW, the housings are DOT approved they way they come with halogens.

The light you are referring to is a H7 55watt halogen bulb. Same wattage as factory. That is the eurolamps.com setup. Don't know why the connector turned color. Probably heat like you said, but it is just a standard halogen bulb. Maybe had a poor connection that causes heat buildup.
