Default 6k HID's!!

Just thought I'd share how my new HID kit from retro-solutions.com looks! My camera really sucks sorry!

Drivers side Ballast, mounted it to my heat shield for the CAI


As you can see, hidden


Passenger side ballast and the relay


A shot from the front


and the light beam


The kit is pretty much plug and play, just drill a few holes to mount the ballasts and relay and run the wires along the factory looms, looks pretty factory besides the passenger side ballast all out in the open. I'm very pleased with them, bright and crisp.

LOL we installed the ballasts in the same spots...These were a cinch to install, any Caveman can do it in under half an hour...Nothing beats the look of HIDs

fair enough... 6K are brighter, but 8k are bluer...

I chose 6K too. But only for the headlamps, not for the fogs... and I love the result!!
