Dang Tiger, I guess it's all been done before huh? Well I would really appreciate a pic on how it looks, I imagine it looks great. I know the smoked look won't affect output but I always thought smoked headlight have a blacked out mirrored reflector instead of a chrome colored reflector. That's interesting how they are blacked out differently. So...do your set use h1 bulbs for HID? Whose HID kit did you go for? It's hard to find them locally as they're slowly beginning to be banned. I see them on Ebay for <$300 but who's to trust? I don't want some cheapo knock-offs but I don't want to pay $500. I know Phillips/Hella balasts are what to look for. How did you get rid of the low-beam warning and did you have to rewire a new harness for the headlights? (sorry for the 1000 questions!) Thanks!
