Thumbs up Sweet just finished up my HID install

So after about a hour of screwing around, a few stainless bolts, to hold the brackets on, its done.. Only thing I had to do was change the polarity around, they came right on.. I went for a nice neat install.. The driver side ballast is hidden, the pass is mounted nice and neat with the wires tucked away.. Will have night shots to come.. Very satisfied with the kit, esp for the money, lets just hope they last.. Kit all and all is pretty decent...

Yeah def wanna keep posted on how long they last, had kits b4 that last a week or years for the same price. Also always seein the ones that u have to keep turnin ur lights off and on over and over til both lights come on, quit annoying, but the install looks great.

Thes are the best I could get.. Driving they are a def brighter then what I had, much clearer. They are the 6000k so they are not blue blue but with the eye you can see the blue moreso then the pic shows.. Ima have to mess wit the cam to get a better shot..
