Not so much poorly designed, as poorly described. I think if Stangmods included a diagram
or picture of how these plug together, it would be helpful. All the parts seem very solid and
the wiring is all neat. Just not so clear where it all goes ...

The instructions don't say anything about the sheathed plug connecting to the ballast, just the
plastic ended ones connecting together between ballast and light.

Thanks

Of course pictures would be nice. Or at least directions that where much clearer. But yeah, I guarantee you that the way I mentioned above is the way the fogs get installed. Maybe you should do a Tacobill-style writeup when you install your kits so no one else has the same problems.

I'm charging up my camera tonight. I plan to install some hood struts I got from
a fellow forum member, the C&L CAI and tune, plus the HID headlights and foglights
if I get the time.

Assuming my pictures comprise a decent story, I'll give it a shot...

Oops.

Should have kept quiet.

Did the install. Didn't get to the fog light kit. Did the headlights. Went ok, fairly straightforward except
for mounting the ballasts.

When lights first come on, the relay in the wiring harness buzzes. Pretty loud at first, then quieter, then
gone. Keeps buzzing if car is off, seems to go away if car is running. Is that just warm up? Still waiting
for a response from stangmods.

Sorry I didn't get to the fogs, but when I do, I'll post about it.

Thx,

The buzzing is perfectly normal. It's just the ballasts doing their thing. They tend to do it most when the bulbs are new and on occasion when the bulbs have been off for a while and cold. You could always find a creative way to soundproof the are you put the ballasts but I would just leave it. Since the ballast location was not designed into out cars they are usually mounted in open areas where the sound is most noticeable. It may just be me but I find it kinda cool.

Again, this sounds like the relay, and not the ballasts, but it does sound like the situation you describe
so I'll live with it for now. The relay and passenger ballast is mounted well, I'm not totally satisfied with
the drivers side ballast.

Took about 3 hours, for hood struts, C&L, program and HIDs, including a short test drive after the C&L
and program, plus adjusting the headlights and setup/cleanup. Reading the instructions fully too.

I'll have some install photos up this weekend.

I've had mine for like a year now and love them. It was a simple install for me, pretty straight foward. They have awsome customer service. Sorry i don't have any pics for you thoe.

Stangmods has always been awesome to me. Great deals, fast shipping, great customer service. They are equal to AM imo.
