its amazing. all the license plates and street signs glow now. and whats nice is i havent been flashed once. i thought i would be seeing hi beams all the time after i installed them, but i guess they are at the perfect height that it doesnt bother ppl

something screwy happens to the highbeam grounding system when you install hids. its worse in people with fog lights and hi/lo kits. the solution is to provide a constant ground to the highbeams. you can do this by following http://www.landstromsfoundry.com/Tec...Foglights.html this. it should return the system to stock. the only differance is that you run highbeams and fogs at the same time

I might go to fogs also. whihc do i turn the hex screw on the headlights to aim the lights up? They are aimed pretty low right now.

The kit is grerat, but the prongs on the connector cables didnt fit into my stock light harness so i had to do some modifications to make them fit.

Yea, they just didnt fit in the stock light harness. they were too thick. ended up breaking them and had to just rig it my way. when i hit the unlock button on my fob, the passenger light flickers and doesnt come on. but the lights work when i turn them on???
