Thank you for your time, I’m interested in converting my halogens to HID (both low-beam and fogs) and want to get it right I just need someone who has done this before to guide me through what to buy I can handle the install. Thank you for your time
Depends on if you want to do a retrofit or a conversion. I believe you currently have halogen projectors which means you don't really have to worry about glare... just beam focus and focal point. For vast majority, the lighting output is good enough with just an HID conversion in halogen projectors as it's a huge upgrade from standard halogen still. My suggestion is to try that first. If later on you decide you do want to go with a retrofit (which is not trivial), then you can still do so. As you'd still have to do a Step 1 HID conversion regardless of retrofit or no retrofit, you don't lose anything by doing that first.
Alternatively, if you don't want to bother with a retrofit, you can also buy aftermarket headlights with xenon projectors (DEPO, Hella, SPYDER, etc). Just buy the ones that don't come pre-packaged with HIDs as they typically bundle the cheapest possible kit available that will fail in a year or so.
Check your owner's manual which identifies which bulb you use. If you don't have your owner's manual, you can pull out the bulb, and shoot us pics of the bulb and we can tell you which you have.
I see a 4500K kit on your website. http://www.aznoptics.com/index.php?m...roducts_id=113
Will this kit be exactly the same in terms of ease of installation?
4500K is more of an OEM look and will match the 4300K LED parking lights I already got from you

Yes, we also have 4500K... even though we offer it, not many like it as it is a soft white, not the pure white you see in today's OEM xenon. However, they will be a better match for the 4300K LEDs.
Okay so I finally received my system the H7 kit you linked at the top I’ve got the bumber and lights off the vehicle now just trying to figure out how to plug everything together any help would be appreciated kinda feel dumb I just don’t want to mess anything up
So a few questions the to leads with red heat stop coming from the new light and grommet are what go into the original bulb connection
These leads go into the original connector? if so how do I know which side is positive on the original connector
is the the relay I’m supposed to leave out?
black is ground. Just plug it in and test. If you get it wrong, just flip wires. No harm done. And yes, don't need that part as you're not running relay.
Also, when you test, turn the car fully on then off, then turn on lights. Doing that resets your front SAM.
See those original headlight brown and yellow wires? The insulation becomes brittle and disintegrates causing an electrical short hazard. This is why I'm buying DEPO headlights. The original headlights are toast.
