This is just a example. Do your homework.

I was close to putting UK on it, but I really don't like the application of UK. I ended up using some left over Finest I had from a previous job on it. Once I get home from work I need to pull it out in the sun and make sure I didn't miss any high spots. I also do not like to wax anything, although I did just put wax on our Saleen because I am planning on having paint work done on it at some point this year and there was no point in wasting coating on it.

So do you detail car full-time or do you just do it part-time? I only do a car each weekend pretty much, since I only do this part-time.

That's weird I love the UK Application of it. Hated the original. But I do this part time mostly. I work from home so sometimes I will have cars dropped off for a few days. Have a facebook page yanks auto detail. Love to do this full time.

Well I got a few after pics yesterday after noon. I need to snap a few more as I installed the SLP delete kit last night which looks 100x better now. I also installed the Airaid Jr. kit last night. Here are my a few after pics of it with CQuartz Finest on it. Paint looks a mile deep now.

My HID kit from The Retrofit Source came with a relay harness, but someone mentioned using an Escalade relay which won't let them fire until the truck is running, or until it senses enough voltage to properly run the ballasts. I'm not familiar with the timed relays you mentioned, so I'll have to look into them. I'm assuming I could just replace the standard relay that comes with the kit with one of the timed relays and then I'd be able to retain the automatic headlights? If its as simple as that, then that seems like the answer.

Not really. The timed relay goes in line of the signal wire ( positive from truck bulb socket) that controls the relays.

Got my 24s mounted up today. Boss 333s got a good deal on them used. Not perfect by any means but love the look. And found some used Lexani LX-Nine 295/35/24s for dirt cheap.

Thank you! Hope to drop it more about 1" front 2" back someday

Looks real nice. Tahoes like yours make me think go lower and bigger wheels. I'm usually a lift it and bigger tire guy but torn of which way to go lol. Mine is bone stock and I'm itching to change that.

I used a Jatronx relay (voltage sensitive to 13.5 volts). Works great. Only triggers the HIDs when the truck is running and thus the voltage is high enough to supply the ballasts properly. If I don't want the lights on when the auto headlights try to come on (like backing out of my garage during the day), I just turn the switch off before cranking the truck.

It is a 4x4 and I came real close to putting a level kit on it but that's not me lol

 

[07Burb]

Mine 4x4 also. Low just looks too dang good

Yeah honestly I almost looked past this one being it was a 4x4 but glad I didn't lol

I see. Thanks for the tip.

This is exactly what I was referring to in my original post. I'd prefer to use a relay that is sensitive to the correct voltage than an adjustable timed relay. I'll search around for the Jatronx one you mentioned. Thanks.

ETA: Just did some research on the Jatronx voltage sensitive relays. It seems from reading a member of HIDPlanet's forum that all I would have to do is simply replace the relay(s) that come with my Morimoto kit with these voltage sensitive relays. Its as simple as that. Using these relays I could then remove the resistor I installed which disabled my automatic headlights. Here's a link to the thread about the Jatronx relays for anyone interested.
