Changing the HIDs and Parking Lights

I just wanted to post up some pictures of what I did in my free time after a good break from my classes.

I ordered 6000k HID bulbs for $20 and some left over LEDs from my interior. Pain in the butt from the wheel well for my first time doing it that way, but was quite experiencing!

What do you guys think?

Stock / Before


6000k & LEDs / After


Comparison

Where did you get the Leds, cause if they are from superbright they are going to burn out Soon. Lol i burnt out 4 in the front in 3 months and my license plate ones just died too.

for the led's did you have to install ballasts so they do not flicker as quick?

the ones in the picture is from superbrightleds, they last for about a month (from others' experience), when they're about to die out, they do that flickering for a bit and just pop! I got some ijdmtoy leds now in there and from experience, it is said to last longer. Last longer = No flickering till monthsssss later
