Here's so more pics... BTW, I never re-aimed my headlights after I got them in, but I think they're ok the way they are...

I also have a little vid of it changing over from low to high... It would be cool if someone can help host it for me... Just PM me your email... Thanks!

LOL, I just got mine installed.. same setup as Nicks above but with the addition of 5000k foglights also. The headlights turn on and warm up blue, turn yellow, and then turn pure white. Stupid non oem housings fake h4 crap LOL, but the fogs.. simply beautiful! I'd post pics but everytime I take them they come out hugh and when i resize them they get distorted lol

we had a few really strong fogs the other days, so I decided to go back to halogen fogs, cuz I was not able to see even the edge of my hood, was complately blind.I just parked a car and was sitting for an hour and waiting, and only when another car showed up I was able to follow him cuz he has halogen lights.Just terrible.Thanks God I wasnt so far away from the house.

What are you saying? HIDs aren't good in the fog?

^ You didn't know? HIDs are too pure for the elements, which is why all those cars that come with HID stock have halogen fog lights, just in case it rains.

I never knew that... I guess you learn something new everyday...

What if I get yellow HIDs in the stock fog light housing? Would it be good? Or will it still be bad because they're HIDs? Thanks!

They would be good, but they'd be yellow. If you don't mind the color, which is illegal anyway since headlights have to be white...

I don't mind the yellow... That's what I had planned to do... Because I have the PIAA 1000X and 1200 Ion Crystal Yellow... But they're both driving lamps... So, I wouldn't mind getting yellow HIDs in the OEM Fogs for the bad weather...

oh yea for the fogs it's okay. Just for the oem h11 I haven't seen a yellow kit. Better luck if you have the new fogs for the 04. They have a different bulb.
