BlueOkay a few questions and a poll. I just ordered my HID kits. Two 12k kits in h7 low beam and h3 fog light should be bright :cool:. Yes I know they are for Off road use only but I can get any fix it ticket taken care of no questions asked car unseen. Then the fact I will blind everyone on the road :fiddle:.

Now before my cars like 3 crashes the fasteners they use to attach the bottom stuff to the bumper you could just unscrew and pop out. well the ones in there now :mad: :mad: :mad: They are like pop ins but I can't get them off short of drilling out the centers and buying new ones. If it comes down to it I will. Tips or tools to remove them? Also any place safe to mount the ballast in the bumper so that it doesn’t get wet/hit/damaged?

Now for the poll. I have red cathodes in my car and they create allot of noise when they are on over the radio. just with how i have them even when they are mounted under the dash there is still noise. the entire setup with the tap for the cig lighter cost me almost 50 bucks to do that’s 2 lights and the 4way thing. I found an led kit on ebay with everything should be right around 30 bucks but the pics don't show what or how they install but i can figure it out. So i want to redo the inside lights but i don't know what color i currently have red but with everything in the car being blue/purple doesn’t match to well at times. soooo

Why not go green to match your dash gauges? That's what I'd vote for if it was on the poll.

I drive a GT my guages and aftermarket headunit are blueish in color I am going with blue. I don't want to get white and find out it's dim and dosn't look right. at least with the blue if it comes out dim it will still look okay.

You would have a LOT more light output and visibility with 4300K or 5000K kits, and less incovenience of punk *** coppers! 12K is very purple and the output is factually very close to that of a black light! You just bought the most expensive lights with the least functionality. But hey, at least you'll look cool!
