Default Sealed beam conversion and 23000K worth of HIDS

Here are a couple shots of the cars headlight set up, I couldnt get straight on shots with my camera of all 3 on because it just blinds it. Im gonna get my buddy to shoot it.


Eurolamp Sealed beam conversion
Hi-Xen 12000K
Hi-Xen 6000K
Hi-Xen 5000K
Disabled highbeam/no fog relay







My camera is junk compared to my buddies who took the above pics, but when all the are on people refer to it as the "light of god" coming down the road, that should give you and idea of the brightness.


Fogs



Fogs and Lows on



All 3

12000K fogs, 6000K lows and 5000K highs

For the fog relay just pull out the fuse box that has the relay and cut and ground the light green wire.
