If you would like some more pics, I would be more than happy to take some. It seems like every pic I have taken of my car was in my driveway. h:

I'll get on that right away.

OK, I took some pics somewhere besides my driveway. h:

Here is an inside the car pic:



Outside the car:



While driving:



Overall, the visibility improvement is awesome. It gives at least 20 more feet cutoff than halogen lights and the 6000k temperature makes the road markings glow with a 3 dimensional blue look.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, I don't drive much at night, so I haven't gotten to use them much. Only twice since I installed them.

No problem. They are a great investment if you do a lot of night time driving. Good luck. :thumbup:

I hate to bash. But that has quite a bit of glare and you need a relay for that so you dont fry your stock wiring. cause HID warm up you can pull up to 25 amps on warm up. our stock 18 guage wire cant handle that much amperage. so you need to run a relay to power up your HID's

I don't see any glare. Maybe because it is up against my garage door 2 feet away?

I have never heard of this relay that you speak of. Can someone confirm this?

I installed this 'relay' (it's a full wiring kit) when I had my old projections cause I was using more powerful bulbs than the stock ones. People have welded their bulbs to their OEM harness, but I'm not sure if this is the same situation due to the type of kit. You'll find out eventually.
