    No drilling. I posted some pics that show some mounting areas.

    Yeesh, You may not want to. For now I've basically got the relay and ballists zip tied as cleanly as possible near each headlight and battery. I plan to clean it up later with a more permanent solution, but that's it for now! I'll take some embarrassing photos of them this weekend to give a better idea.

    Just got mine finally installed. My kit came with a 9006 Extension (H310). What exactly is it used for and do I need to have it installed?

    @TRSAndrew, @TRSJimmy or anyone else. How would the H11 HID kit + STI-R clear lens output compare to an RX350 with the same lens (ignoring the high-beam function)?

    Is there anything inherently superior about the RX350 bowl, sheild and/or D2S bulb?

    So after having mine for a few weeks, I have come to love them. I do experience a bounce in my passenger headlight on rougher roads. I have the heavy duty gaskets and it was a PITA to turn those bulbs in there. Therefore, I don't think it's the bulbs fault. Wondering if I should try to tinker with tightening headlight assembly/projector. However, not big enough of a problem to exchange them. Excellent color and brightness. Haven't been flashed yet. FYI, I went with the 5500k 35w set

    Maybe you need to swap them to a set of these:

    Same problem, had to use channel locks to get the OEM to engage with the relay socket deep enough to make the circuit. It's like the plastic hood is too deep. I might try filing some of the plastic off. Definitely will not seat enough to to engage the locking clip.
