Did you change the fog light bulbs as well or is that just an overlay?

If you're asking me, I've changed literally every bulb in my car to LED. I'll post pics when I get back to my computer.Did you change the fog light bulbs as well or is that just an overlay?
I spoke with HIDKitLights.com's sales reps, they said that you don't need a relay harness unless you are doing a dual bulb setup, or if you have a bi-xenon setup (both Low and High are on the same bulb).How are you holding up without a relay? I really wanna get an HID kit but this thread is spooking me
Thanks so much for this write up Snoop! Great info for a newb like me. I think I can do this now. I've never upgraded headlights to HID before. Usually the car had them (I miss them).Ok, got some night time shots. They are not much different from halogen in terms of light output, which is fantastic. There are a few minor hot spots towards the middle, but the overall output is great.
5000k 35w HID matches the DRLs very well. The lamps produce a ton of flicker (the part of the cut off where the light bends and changes color), so you're going to look really blue driving down the road.
Fog lights are 35w "golden yellow" halogens.
That's not that expensive. You won't need any error eliminator or adapter cables.This is what I am looking at... Pricey, but I like the lifetime warranty and DDM has been in the game a while.

LED isn't on par with HID yet. They all produce a ridiculous amount of heat and most burn out quickly. The light output isn't very great either. If you're only interested in how the lights look, you can go LED. But if you want to see at night as well, stick with HID.I was sold on HID as I had a full retrofit on my 2006 Honda Accord but I have been looking into LED's recently and the newer ones have brighter then HID lighting and just wondering if anyone has experience with the brighter kits like the Broview 6500k 12,000Lm kit. The name is weird and they don't have a solid website but they have a large number of reviews and it looks very promising. Just tired of the whole relay wiring thing and price is cheaper and brightness is better supposedly.

Replied to your other thread.So I'm trying to get a Morimoto HID kit. Problem is, 50W or 35w. I like that the 50W is brighter but from what I've read, 5500K at 50W is different than 5500K at 35W. Can some one clarify for me? I would like to buy headlights that match the DRL's as close as possible. 4500K at 50W might be too white...
