I noticed in another thread that your current car looks to have HID's in the headlights and parking/fog's. Am I right? If yes could you give some info. I also like the color, very nice.

You mean this picture?


Yes my headlights are HID. They are H4 Hi/Lo type in 8000K . But I think the US versions got H5 instead, correct me if I 'm wrong. I did not do the installation myself but it should be quite simple . There are a lot of very detail installation write ups on RL which are all very usefull.
As for the fog light, they are LED H3. You can find them on eBay . Try to get the ones with lens like this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-x-H3-Lens-...bc25d9&vxp=mtr
Since the LED is not as bright as the normal H3, I switched the wiring of the in-bumper high beam (inner pair) with the driving lights?(outer pair). This way the whole fog/drive unit will be lighted up when I turn on the driving light(as picture). The outer pair still got lighted up by the little parking light which is also LED. I kept the normal H3 there for flashing purpose. This picture is taken with headlights on and driving light on. Sounds confusing but you will know what I am talking about when looking at the picture.

If this is an automatic, make sure you check the flex-plate and crank end play....Search for "trust bearing failure" or "TBF" on this forum.
