hersh, what did you do to remove the city light bulbs? didnt you get the lamp error msg? i disconnected the wires for the city lights and hooked up with the halo wires but i still get the lamp error msg, i think thats cuz of the leds in halos?

hey hersh, i put in the resistors today, and no errors now. If you plan on putting the resistors make sure you put 100 ohms ones.
hey do you also have white leds in your mirrors? if so how did you do that man?

Looks nice.

It looks like you disconnected the running light bulbs so that you can see the halos...did you?

My fogs are next...they're in the mail.

Loving the HID fogs. Just picked up a Carlsson front from CuryousGee, What kind of fog lights did you get, and what size HIDS are you using. I have HID fogs on my stock AMG bumper but want to transfer them.
