    Pretty much stock
    The headlights will come with a harness, i doubt you'll need one for the fog's. see how it works out without them, you can always order one later.

    I've shit better things than DDM's customer service


    Slim cubby
    the retrofit source

    Both are good.

    Both are also gunna blind others, or destroy ur distance viewing if u aim down too much but that's another story.

    On the bright side, u can prolly avoid tickets and or have friends write them off.

    If u got the time and money look into a prjector retrofit......not the ebay "spyder" ones
