Hey Kevin...there is a diy on making a tpms sensor housing to trick so you can interchange the wheels with no light. Just sayin.

ya i lucked out and found a shop that's 3 minutes from my house. the owner's gonna work from their place and come back to my house to finish everything up.

they do a lot of led's inside housing so i figured a retrofit shouldn't be a problem with them.

doesnt sound too bad. im thinkin of getting a PnP HiD kit or silvania silverstars. i know PnPs are bad and "crappy" but up here they're legal and about half of the cars up here have them.

That's not bad for the mini kit. It is the mini, right? Do you know if they had to modify the housing of the projectors at all for it to fit, or do they screw right on with ease?

the guys at the shop looked at the mini kit and saw that it should be an easy plug and play so its not much work at all. hopefully all goes well. i'm gonna drop off the lights later today, hopefully they'll be finished by tomorrow or the next day.

nice! id deff go with a retro fit if i had the money. deff high quality lights. but up here police dont ragg on anyone with HIDs unless their some stupid color like green or pink or dark blue. When winter comes around the sun isnt up for too long and people here like how bright PnP HiDs are. so alot of people have PnP kits. afew shops up here even sell them but of course not what their worth. they sell them for 3x to 4x as much as ebay prices. so for now im going to be getting a PnP kit.

That's nice. Ease of install might be why I go with the mini, but the output isn't as great as say the FXR, right?
