if you want things "proper" wait till keith does the group buy again and do a retrofit. The kit in the GB had both bulbs, ballast, projectors and even sealant. The only additional thing you needed was extra wire for the angel eyes. Other than that, tons of places are going to be different and it's basically first hand experience on whether a place is good or not. I've got two sets from HIDKing on ebay and plus a buddy got a kit from them as well and they have been excellent. Super quick shipping and great product.

Are you sure? The wiring harnesses should be different since Amtron's kit is for the 9003/H4 connection and the fogs being the 9006.

Cole's right. All you need is a different bulb I believe. Where's Keith, he knows everything about this stuff. It's either the bulb or conversion, but I believe it is the bulb.

My bad. I figured that since before you were using the H4 factory connection to connect to your ballast that it would not be compatible to the 9006 factory connection that would connect to your ballast.

Do you need to disable the DRL to use the HID's?
