Talking Lazy Eye HID

So I found a site for some decent price HID ($179.00) for any temp everything included. I went with 8000k for low and 10k for my fogs, need to install this weekend. What the heck early Bday present I say... Not bad I must say, 45 min to install per set and there is no turning back now...

The only thing I have to do is align the lights, yea I kinda light up the block now and save for some OEM Bi-X kits (avoiding ebay right now)

oh yea any good idea on what bulbs to go with for the corner and city lights ?

Paint the side markers or get Euro Impact strips. As for the city lights; I got mine (194 Super White Xenon) at autolumination.com Link

Are yours the LED ones? Do you use resistors?

^^^ damn, beat me to it.

My camera is making it look a little whiter. In real life they are a bit bluer, but not that much more.

They aren't as bright as the stock bulbs, but out of all the 194 bulbs that I have put in there --minus the stock -- these have been the brightest. And cheapest.
