Yeah 6000k were way whiter than i expected too.. who makes yours?
if you go 3000k fogs you will love it i promise.

04blackedge 02-24-2009 12:52 AM

I got mine from Autoluminate on ebay.

I just bought the 3000k from DDMtuning though, we'll see how good they really are soon!

I would have stayed with autoluminate.. but we will see how the DDMtuning one goes.

59.99, I was about to order with DDM but it turns out to be more expensive, screw that. I'll be getting both kits from autoluminate

I'm never in fog and snow anymore, should I still go with 3000k?

Well I think if you want the yellow color 3000k if you want matching heads and fogs then go with the blue color ranges.

I like the 6000 - 10000k heads with 3000ks fogs like this:

Same here. I just got the 3000k from Autoluminate. I wonder if I should get a relay kit for the fogs, I have one for the heads. Opinions?

jaycheetwood 02-24-2009 01:02 AM

relay kit?? You didnt just go plug and play? why the relay? for heat?

EDIT:

I have run heads no relay for like 6 months now no issues.

04blackedge 02-24-2009 01:05 AM

Tre told me to get it so I did lol. I'll run the fogs no relay then

jaycheetwood 02-24-2009 01:10 AM

Oh yeah i dont know anything about the relay kits. My only guess would be that its for heat and not melting the wires?

04blackedge 02-24-2009 01:12 AM

No clue. Some people have had the problem about one light cutting out on them and the relay fixed it for them, I figured I'd go ahead and install it at the beginning so I don't have to worry about that problem. It actually made the install easier IMO, only had to use one of those stupid headlight connector adapter things.

FordGuy302 02-24-2009 01:14 AM

I helped a buddy install some on his 03 mustang and the kit he ordered for 40 buck had a relay they are nice and install was a snap he got 6000K nice as hell his have that Lexus look though a blueish white

jaycheetwood 02-24-2009 01:16 AM

Ohh weird i have never had an issue with lights cutting out. My guess is the kit or a poor outputing battery... pics of the relay?

FordGuy302 02-24-2009 01:23 AM

my buddy had a problem with one being shakey and cutting out and he told the company and they sent him a new ballast and it fixed his

Its not just a relay, its a whole wiring kit. I don't have a pic of it you can find it on ebay though.

Guys:

My turnsignals, and running lights are plugin LED's (Amber)
I have the exact same oznium 38" strip as jaycheetwood
I have 6000K HID, both foglights and headlights

I took all of my photos at night, with NO FLASH. The HID's are so bright compared to the LEDs so it make it look like I have no amber in the headlights when the exposure is set to work at night. In reality they are amber (you can clearly see this in the photo at top where I have the headlights off)

The hood was also not latched in the first picture, and this is why you have light escaping between the grill and the hood.

Neat

you will get at ticket for that

jaycheetwood 02-24-2009 10:55 AM

Hmm possibly.. but i mean i didnt get one last night and i passed hmm i would guess no less than 9 cops going to a friends and coming back.. 4 of which were sitting with laser guns.. ogden cops love to sit and laser at night.

Trigger01 02-24-2009 05:50 PM

Thats why you pay me to do it!

FordGuy302 02-24-2009 07:27 PM

I like the same color with a solid white light so im gonna go 6000k heads and fogs

Fenech627 02-24-2009 07:30 PM

I like that a lot. If my truck wasnt green I would put sweet lights in it but there is really no lights that complement the green lol. In my town they would stop you for a second for that. Only time I would light em is when im parked.

Looking good none the less.
