    How's the quality of the light output in those? And was it hard to changed out to HIDs or was it like normal plug and play HIDs. Thanks for the help

    Hey Kid,

    Installing when my HID bulbs show up, but I assume since it uses an H9 you don't have hi and low beams>?

    Also any tips from the install would be apprecaited.

    Have you seen the fog light replacements at Retrofitsource? I ordered some LED projecters.

    75 watt hid?? They better be bright! Thats alot and in the pic it doesn't seem like it's that bright. The 35 watt in TRS projector will put out just the same as that

    I bought these a couple months ago. They look a lot better in person than in pictures honestly. But i have just recently ran into a few problems with them. After a month, one of the headlights started to get a strange buildup on the inside of the lens. Must be some kind of moisture buildup. Kind of looks like frost rings on the lens but its not cold enough for that yet. Another problem i found today was that the turn signal bulb burnt out, so i went to replace it and noticed the bulb and the connector were badly burnt. Checked the other side, even worse. It got so hot, it started to melt the housing around where the connector twists into its locking position. Ill be sending these pictures to anzo customer service. I might try for a full refund instead of warranty. Don't really want to deal with this headache again. Has anyone else had this problem with these headlights?

    I bought the same anzo's and had the same melting problem. Thats mold on the lens. Did you get a refund? Change the lights? I'm doing a proper retrofit with morimoto's.

    I tried reaching out to anzo and never got a reply back. I gave up a while back.
    Still have them. No other problems though.
    I bought a more expensive brand bulb and they seem to be holding up alot better than the ones that came with the headlamps.

    Thx for the info. Bought mine in 2014. Just replaced driverside harness that they sent me after that burnt out. Already did passenger side a few months back. I'll be selling mine.
