Here are some pics. Couldn't get any good pictures of the LED tails/brake/signal because they didn't come out so well, but I'll post up a vid if anybody requests. There should be some roaming around though.
BTW, I do realize one of my eyebrows are out. The passenger side wire decided to rip on me so I decided to just run one on both sides until I can solder the wires back. Doing that when I pull off my headlights and when I'm painting the housings as well.
The best picture I got of the rear signals which are the RED LEDs.

Are those the OEM fogs or are your lenses tinted yellow?

They're some mtec 3500k I think. Maybe 3k? I forget. I had them laying around and put them on. I wanted to go hId. But I had hid fogs on my last car and the bulbs I had ended up fading. Idk why but one bulb ended up being yellow the other more like a washed out one.
Anyways other than some flickering last night. I'll find out If the ballast was bad or just a loose connection.
If all is well and it was just a loose connection. Then these 8k hids. And eye lids are awesome. I

hey mike, so i think that the bulb may be busted. i noticed when i turn on my lights there is a slight wiggle in one of the beams (when the lights are shown against my garage). it shuts off and flickers approximately every 2 minutes. i turn the lights on and off to get them to turn back on. could this be the bulb? i'm going to try switching the ballasts once again to see how that works. is there a warranty on the bulbs?

Yes, there's a warranty so don't worry about that, but I just want to make sure if it's the ballast or the bulb that's the issue. Try switching either the ballasts or the bulbs and see if the problem follows either. Once we nail down the damaged component, I'll process a warranty ASAP.

Mike I am ready to place an order for low beams on my 09 C300. How close is your 5000K kit to factory Xenon 4300K? Is it more like 4300K?, 6000k or in between? How far off the factory eyebrows will be with your 5000K kit? I really don't want the 6000k look but more like factory look.
