Default HID install

Installed my HID's, interior, LP LED's... on Friday... Man, what a difference!! Definately a good investment. Install was fairly simple, i took my time, removed the buckets, HL, so i could mount my Ballasts..

there is snow on the ground here... Will shoot some pic's weather permitting.. If you have not already done this mod to your Z06.. I would encourage you to do so. PM me and i will tell you which kid i went with as i am not sure he is a sponsor here. I DO KNOW that he sells alot of kits here and is located just North of Texas...

Worth every Penny on my car. Glad GM designed good lamp housing. I have asked friends about my lights and none of them say they blind them. The say Factory BMW HID's are the worst for annoying.

I agree! Every car I own now and have ever owned has HIDs, including the wife's civic. Single most beneficial bang for buck investment in my opinion. I also have 4LED bulbs inside and my LP lights as well. I hate yellow light. Even in my home I have 6000k CFL bulbs throughout! Post pics!
