    They are the 35watt 8K HID kit from ddmtuning.com the headlights are size H4 and the fog lights are size H11. The kits from this company come with everything you need there is no need for any add ons. They were like 70 bucks before shipping. They took about an hour and a half to install and thats only because I had never put anything in like that but it was easy to do. If you have any other questions feel free to ask :)

    No problem and thanks. The next things that I have on order is a Salexorganizer for the center console to clean it up. Jumper LED's for the interior and reverse lights (I can't see ish at night when I back up) and a mattgecko sliding window security bar. After I put those in I might do the BHLM. But I wont be doing anything else for a while because I'm saving up for the suspension upgrades next.

    I know the feeling. We have a spoiler for hers sitting on the floor at home. Still haven't put it on yet. Scared to drill into the trunk lid. Lol

    Lowering springs, skirt kit, and some other stuff is on her to-do list

    Yeah I would be too scared to drill the trunk lid too haha she already has the spoiler thankfully hers came with one otherwise I would be in the same situation. Thats a pretty good list she has there I dont think mine has figured out there is a body kit for it lol hopefully she doesnt find out she didnt even know she had projector lights till today haha :facepalm:

    Oh she will when she sees other Tc's with them. That's what happened with me. Lol

    The lowering kits aren't bad price wise. There's just alot of them to choose from is the issue.
