Finally playing with my kit. 5500k h11b. Dont have a relay but its only a 35watt kit and wow what a difference. Can clearly see a difference between the 2. Still have a decent cutoff

Can you give any tips and or details on what you ordered. I got the led bulbs as mentioned on the forum. They suck. Wanted to go with these just wondering if we needed the canbus wiring harness

I have the h11b xb series 5500k. Went for a drive last night way better light projection. No canbus needed. Just using the ballast and the bulbs. Ive had my share of Amazon and other cheap kits this hands down is a very nice kit. Bulbs fire every time and color shift is very clean. 5500k they claim and they are spot on in color like vleds.com. No hinge of blue just a pure clean crisp white light

You still happy with those bulbs? Thinking about pulling the trigger on them today.

I can get anyone a slight discount on these if you're interested.

I highly recommend these kits just for reliability. I have warrantied next to no parts in the last 3 years. Almost all warranties have to do with LED halos, not hid bulbs or ballasts.

Also, OP.

I recommend getting a relay harness. They are cheap and protect your stock wiring.

You seem to know a lot about this. Can you use this set to do your high and low beams? Or is this just for your low beams? I'm so confused

Of course I know a lot about it. It's my job to retrofit vehicles on here and help everyone out.

Your highs and lows already work together, or at least they do on my truck. If you have any questions don't hesitate to send me a message on here!
