NCSU's HID Retrofit Headlights...
#181
No worries! I must have missed the original posting of your pics.
Looks good, don't know how often I'd rock the purple though! I also had a fogging problem on the drivers side... Only happened once though.
Are you using a block heater?

Thanks man. I've never rocked the purple. My favorites in order are red, green and blue.
Why do you ask if I'm using a block heater? Because of the cord coming out the front? That's just the controller for the backlighting, the wire wasn't long enough to get into the cab so I just have it laying in that lower grill area for now.

You're running switchbacks in the turn signal right? How are those working out for ya?

The switchbacks are awesome!! I love them. When I had my stock lights with the chrome turn signal bowl, I used them a lot as just my running lights. They are pretty bright, and are only 60 leds. Vleds makes them in a 90 led now. Pricey but worth it IMO. V-leds has made a lot of money from me alone. lol I always love watching them fade out and then become white again when I'm looking at the reflection on the back of cars I'm driving behind. They are probably thinking "what the hell?" when my light suddenly goes out after being amber and then fades into a bright white. haha

Hey NCSU, You didn't happen to try and peek into the housings at the projectors did you, You see where the Devil Eyes LED is and how it was secured??
Does anyone know if you can change the Automatic lights photo sensor to power the parking lights instead of the headlights??
Also does anyone know a power source that is only active in all gears except park (If we find this out Autolights can stay the way they are)???
[thought] Now I have to figure out how to re-wire my Fogs to work with Headlights only but still be able to go on with park lights if done manually and be Master on/off by stock switch. [/thought]

I still need to decide if I want to do any kind of backlighting firing out of the shroud vents or if I want to keep the halo around the projector in addition to the halo around the housing. I am also contemplating getting the housing painted. I am not sure what the black would look like since my truck is two tone copper and gold/tan. Brian suggested maybe getting the housing painted to match the gold metallic two-tone. It would probably go good with the color scheme, but I haven't seen anyone do anything like it. What do you guys think? I tried to do some photoshopping to see:
Stock:
Paint to match (I think it would be a little lighter than this)

^ I'd PTM the copper/red over the gold/tan.
Sorry but no. I didn't really look into it before I installed them.
