Default Finally got the Hid's Installed

Well i would like to thank those that helped me along the way,Got the kit in and install was a breeze.Had one hiccup were i had to reverse the passenger side plugin 180 degrees but no biggie.Also installed a led 3rd brake light .Should have better pics up soon .Now i just need to figure out why the driver side DRL randomly will be on one minute and then off if you pull the ebrake very odd

8000k hids

Change the bulb, I bet one of the filaments is burnt out.

Looks good, HIDs make a world of difference!

Well you need to get Sealed Beam Conversion Headlamps from Here Type 4703 (for '98-'02 Birds), then get an HID kit (H7's in whatever color temp you need), install....and boom!

Looks great! Though now...you need to swap those stocker fogs for HIDs. I did one, then I just knew I had to do the other.

Hmmm...I think both my DRL go off if I pull up the E-brake. I think the question is why does one stay on.

Looks really good! Is that the 35w or the 55w kit? I'm about to order the DDM kit as well. Just trying to figure out if I should get the 6k or 8k since they claim the 55w washes out the color. I dont want anything too blue.

98ws6 i followed it and actually probably got on your nerves with all the question lol But i do appreciate the help.My kit is the 35watt 8000k system.

Yes i agree i deff need the fogs ,I ordered some lights by Autolumination Xenon Plasma for the fogs hoping it would get me by but they are at not very good.So it will be Hid for the fogs soon.I just need to purchase some new fog light housings because mine are severely scratched and chipped,And i dont want to take a chance on melting the stock plastic lens.Any recommendations for some new fog housings

Looks good. Can't wait until mine get here next week. I only ordered them for the lows so far. I'll do the fogs after I finally get my halo fogs put in. I probably won't worry about the highs though.
