Pictures of where you mounted the ballasts? I've seen the pictures of Shane's truck but I want to know where you mounted yours. I'm going to get a 6000k kit for my fogs soon enough.

Haha.... I can't remember who it was in Tyler's thread I think I got pissed at for the way he talked about HIDs and stuff. I thought it was you, but I guess it wasn't! HID's FTW!

Why 6000? If you actually want to use your fogs for visibility you want to use 2500-4000k.

6000 would be more suited for your headlights.

I know that. I ran yellow fogs (9005) for a while. I just didn't like them and it didn't make a huge difference to me. I want mine to match.

I think I just had bad grounds, which after awhile pissed off the bulbs/ballasts enough.

This picture clearly illustrates why you dont put HID bulbs in non projection lenses.

Look at the glare in the day time.

I just put yellow 9006's in mine and they make a huge difference. Going HID with 2500k would only make it better.


I like the fogs so much I almost considered installing 2500k headlights.
