When you buy them, you'll want to make sure they come with the harness already assembled, so it's only a matter of switching plugs (The halos need to be wired seperately though, dont come with a plug, gotta tap into a line) Amd make sure they bring bulbs. A store will tell you around 300. I got mine shipped for 215 from a online store, and you can find them on ebay for around 150 or so I think.

Tip: The bumper needs to come off in order to install these. So if you are doing it yourself, it's not fun, and a shop will charge about hour and a half for labor I think.

You will want to seal them before installing them also.

Yeah, use silicon to seal them. They do not come sealed when you buy them. I didn't seal mine when I put them in. A lot of people don't. I saw a little fogging the first 2 or 3 days, and havent seen any since. (been over a month) But if you just don't want to take any risk of having to take them back off later to seal them because it keeps fogging up, then just pop them open and seal them before installing them.

Thanx man I never would have known. U would think for that much money they wouldn't fog up. I guess they have to make money somehow, @$$ holes :shiner: at least they look good.

I kind of wonder if not being sealed allows better ventilation. They get pretty hot. Just a thought though. hopefully I won't see any more fogging up on them ever, so I don't have to take them back off. (knock on wood)
