So lets see. You got the single fin grill which looks pretty good. Dont know if you have the front lip before or not but thats still nice. Hid fogs...sweet. And you added LED strip to the top of your light. Did I miss anything.

Question: Take a pic with the hood down and the LED strips on. How did you wire them also, did you add a toggle in the cabin?

Klinh,

Looking good as usually. Where did you purchase the LEDs? and are they install inside the lamp? or outside.

Thanks bud.

The HID foglights kit are from www.hidextra.com. The complete kit is only $60 shipped !!!!! It came with everything you see in the pics plus "capacitor" to cancel any error code. Contact Michelle for more infos. Here's the link to the special deal that everyone is buying.

not too shabby,

cover or plug up the licensee plate holes
match the low beam bulbs to the fogs now
led stripe just looks ugly on the top...did you just do it for kicks?

Ok.........guys. I didn't do the LED mods. It look tacky !! That was only a test look with 9v battery and I took pic just for the fun of it. That's why you only see one side of the headlight. The LED goes under the headlight seal. If the LED is not on, you can't really see the LED. Now everyone please get off my back.

Cool new mods. I also did the hid foglights a while back. You should match the low beams like Alexbenz said...it would look a lot better.

You only need to remove the bottom plastic cover and foglight cover. For first time installation and for better fitment of the bulb, you will need to remove the foglight assembly. Know that I know how the bulb fit, I don't have to remove the foglight assembly if I ever need to change the bulb. Btw, you need the H7 bot H11 bulbs kit for the foglight.

the higher you go in temp/color the less visible the light will be to see at night, but that's simple so get 8000k bulbs for the low beam then...

and in your post #6 it doesn't say anything, has a link.....wow, lol
