Ive installed hids before in headlight housings and never had a problem....but heres my question... i just ordered the yellow vinyl from headlightarmor.com and it will be here tomorrow but ive decided i want to up the "yellowness" with some 3k hids. Where should i mount the ballast for the fogs....is running the wiring down from the relay and battery to the fogs difficult?

thanks for any input!

 

Bumpington!

 

Nope, it's no difficult at all..... Just plug yur existing fog wiring directly into the hid ballast behind the wheel well cover and mount/screw it to the frame... You should not be having to run any wires anywhere if yur ride has fogs already, the wiring should be there already -unlike the headlights- if you have the plug and play application.
And adding 3000k's behind the lamix kick's it up a notch and gives you a much deeper and richer golden yellow tone than just yellow bulbs or just overlays.
Unless you run them independently, of course..

 

im a fan of running hids ONLY if i have a relay kit(yes, even in the fogs)...that way i don't
strain the factory harness on start up...so that's why im curious about running wires from the battery to the fogs and how hard it is....any tips?

 

PIAA H11 Yellow Plama Ion Bulbs FTW

saves money... i have 6000k hid's in my headlights! im loving the ions!

 

that was my original plan but im concerned they will burn my yellow vinyl overlays....thats why i was thinking hids...run much cooler.

 

Installed the headlight armor and it looks great when the lights are off but I def. either need piaas or 3k hids so I get that deep yellow when they are on!

 

This is the true brilliant golden yellow you would get if you install the hid 3k bulbs with the overlays....
I shot these on a cheap camera phone at 1230 in the afternoon with the sun directly above me.. Imagine what it looks like at night....it's jaw drop'n. Mine are run'n independently and I can basically drive at night with my h/lamps off and still see very well. tho I don't do that mind you..

That's exactly what I'm going for thanks vinnymac! Hids being order this week or next!

 

Yur welcome ma'man, you will fall in love with'em

 

If you don't mind i ask, how much did you buy the HID for your fog light? I seem ebay sell them $60 veras I find other HID for $150. I know they all made in china. Any difference?

 

is there room behind the fog housing to mount the ballast?
