    Here are the Off Road lights. I have a member testing them out for me, it is the far left light almost looks like an exact replacement of his current off road lights!

    More pics to come.....

    Hey guys,

    I need help installing my HID kit on the fog lights... I already installed the Head light HID and they work fine... I hooked up all the wires for the Fog lights but they dont turn on.... Please help...

    I hooked up the red & blue wires from the bulb to the ballast red & blue wires.
    Hooked up the harness that was on the original fog light to the harness closest to the bulb. Then hooked up the other end(Harness) to the Ballast harness.

    Is there anything else? every wire is hooked up. Please help.

    Thanks

    Nevermind that question above... i figured it out!

    The connector that goes to the original bulb can be turned around, so i just had them backwards.. All is well. they're working perfect!!

    THANKS Slim!! Great Price, Great Hid Kit, Fast shipping!

    I'll be taking pictures one of these nights!

    Well, finally got the 4300k hids installed. Is everyone HIDs shining in the trees!? Is this because there not in a projector? I went for a test drive and the low beams were shining high in trees and on the side of houses. Lo/Hi beam pictures attached. :confused:

    Ross, did you get the bi-xenon ones? If so, the sheild is supposed to be mounted with the opening looking upwards.

    Yep, I made sure the sheild was intalled with the opening pointing upwards. I attached the low/hi beam pics in my earlier post.

    hey slim. i just got the lights installed and they were extremely awesome and bright. unfortunatley a week after using them they both stopped working. i rechecked and rechecked the recheck to make sure none of the lines were cut, no water damage, no nothing. just to make sure it wasnt a fuse or soemthing i plugged my regular OEM bulbs back in and they work. i think either the ballast or the relay or something is dead. it wont turn on at all. what to do? can you email me at jungsoo726@hotmail.com for further directions.

    havent had a chance to install yet but just to make sure, you mean the black shield piece around the bulb when its installed is on the bottom of the bulb, correct? when you say the opening im not positive if you just mean the area of the bulb without the shield. i got the bi-xenon too.

    Yes and yes. The reason why the opening should face up is because when the bulb is on, the light will shine upwards and will reflect downwards onto the road and not upwards therefore blinding oncoming drivers.
