From what I can tell, yes....I wanted just the slightest tinge of blue, but not the over the top solid blue....

5000K is like stock. 6000K is like what most of the foreign cars have. More blueish. BTW Retro-Solutions needs one more order to send out 10 kits.

more pics? I'm very interested in these. I'd like to see pictures at night and of the cutoff when the lights are shined against a wall or something like that.

Thanks

This is awesome Mike.... I think the best spot would be a sticky in the Stangmods vendor page!

Awesome write up! I just installed all four of mine last night. One problem, my fogs won't come on! Is there something I maybe missed when I did this or something? Has anyone found a write up aout doing the fogs from stangmods? I will post if I find something.

Hey i'm Coty! Recently new to the site. I have the exact same problem! i'm wondering if it's because of my ballasts... both headlights and fogs are 55W. I'm wondering if thats just to much juice causing the relay to kick into a safety. I haven't heard it click and have no power to the fog light harness with the switch on.( checked with test light ) I've been thinking of getting a 35W ballast and trying it. I don't want to waste the money please let me know if you found the answer to this problem...
