Great! Now, who has come up with a plug-in harness to make the fogs come on whenever the headlights are on???

No pics of the install because it was a direct 5202 kit. Literally remove old lights plug in HID bulbs...wire up ballasts and you got yourself some HID fogs...149 shipped. the company i got them off shipped them in 2 days, very legit, only thing that was kind of a bumer was that they r not the slim ballast but who cares, not like im caring them on my back, once their installed no one knows if they r a slim or a regular.

no problems in the yukon, and they were much appreciated going down the freeway at 4 a.m. in the morning with no lights for miles and no other cars. It felt so peaceful with no other cars around. lol

OOOO yeah, nah when i had my HID's put n my fogs i had them swap out the factory fogs for some other ones but they cracc'd, imma take a gew pictures tuesday if you look close when they are off the housing part (glass) is cracc'd but when i run my finger across them i can't feel the cracc. igot you thought u meant like the wiring or sumtin.. but its cool i guess it doesnt break off or nuffn..guess the investment was good when it rains no problems snow cold heat no problems (YET!!!)

this has been repeted and repeated on site after site to anybody that does HIDS. Reality. Still much better light. If done properly it wont blind people, and to be honest I dont give a fuck. Most people dont care anyway.

My HID's don't blind me standing in about 10 feet in front of them... Bright, but not overkill.

Honestly, my HIDs don't bother me either, standing withing 10 to 15 feet of the car staring dead on into the headlights it is not anywhere near the point that causes me to feel like it to bright or irritating. And also reading those articles that were posted above, about the whole scattered pattern BS, you have to be a scientist to even notice that!!! I love my HIDs, cant even compare to those stock bulbs

on some older cars you can. But in todays modern cars the headlamp is designed very well.

I am still undecided on which brand to purchase for my HID's so any input is much appreciated.
Also, have any of you run into problems with cops after installing the HID's?
I really like the blue HID's but I really dont want to deal with cops pulling me over. If anything I might go with the pure white HID's but let me know if you guys have ever had any cop problems.

I have had no problems with my HIDs it think as they are not to blue and not blinding to other drivers cops really wont hassle you. don't forget that many newer cars come with HIDs i doubt cops memorize what cars have HIDs and what cars don't. About brand...their are tons of HID companies out there some that are priced really high and others that are not bad at all...I purchased my headlight HIDs of www.vvme.com...they are not a known NAME BRAND but they are awesome! And my HID fogs i got off eBay, really legit...To be honest i dont care name i care for quality, and not only do i feel like i got quality on both my HID kits, i feel like i got a great price.
