Pics of my 2006 headlights installed on my 05'

Alrighty....... Got the last set of bulbs in today and installed the new 06 headlights in.

1. New 06' headlights installed



2. Here is the new Piaa Plasma GTX city lights only



3. 4300K Osram Sylvania D2S HIDs warming up, with Raybrig 5000k Fogs



4. Piaa Mirror Orange turn signals bulbs



5. HIDs fully warmed up



6. Projector HID Cutoffs



7. Heres the light output of the HID low beams/fogs




These things light up the road excellent. High beams light up even more because of the Bi-xenons.

Hey silver how you think this set up will look:
Philips Ultinons 6000k, Philips Crystal Vision 4000k Fogs, and Piaa Super Plasma GT-X 168/194 wedge for the daytime running lights?

YES!!!!! One tip for everyone doing this is...after removing the bolts holding the headlights in. Take a long screw driver and pry the wire harness that holds onto the headlights and pull it off the headlight. This will give you enough wire slack to pull the headlight out more, to you can disengage the wire harness from the car. I spent about 45 minutes sitting there trying to fit my fat hand in there some how to separate the wire harness.



Cost was from 580+40 for shipping from Infinitspecialts on ebay I believe thats the same guy on this board selling em. Bulbs in total I think I spent about $250 give or take.

I thought about getting the phillips 6000k, but I decided to go with the 4300K. I do not have any experiance with the 6000K so I cannot comment on it.

Looks great. I'm still on the fence b/w a DIY retro or just getting the '06. These threads def help me lean towards taking the easy way out. Looks great!
