I like it. Makes me want to get some and tint the lens around the projector red for the evil eye look.
Yeah - I've been trying to get a blacked out grill for some time. I think it looks mean. Red might get you in trouble with the police though.
So everything just plugs in?
Yes, everything plugs in. The relay has 4 wire outputs.
1) Fused wire that goes to the battery
2) H4 Harness connection that connects to only one of the stock headlight plugs (this is to provide the signal to tell the relay on/off/high/low)
3) One wire that connects to the right ballast
4) One wire that connects to the left ballast
Then each ballast has a pigtail with nice weatherproof connectors that plugs into the back of the headlights.
How long did the swap take?
The swap took me about an hour and a half. I went slow and pulled the battery and routed some of the extra wires to make sure everything looked good.
And noticably brighter than the standard out-dated halogens from the looks of it.
Noticably brighter doesn't even begin to explain this. I had stock halogens in there to begin with - then upgraded to cheap blue H4 bulbs and diamond cut headlights and that was about a 50% improvement. The HIDs are at least another 100% improvement over the H4s and about a 300% improvment over stock halogens.
Are the lenses plastic or glass?
These lenses are glass.
