With the ridged suspension this thing has I am surprised more things dont go wrong. I guess that is what the warranty is for. Sorry for the pain though

At least it’s within warrantee. The HIDs are ridiculously expensive to repair if you had to pay for it!

well i got a upgrade. i got a 6k blue tint hid on it now. replace both for a price of $98. dont know the brand because bought it off a friend that had them d2s laying around but it looks awesome. replace both hid is a pain. have to remove front bumper and the headlight themself. took me about 2hrs to complete the whole thing.

you could have done it with out taking off your bumper and headlights, but regardless it is still a bi&$h. I was thinking about swaping my stockers for some yellow Hid's? What you guys think?

I used to have an IS300 which had the yellow fog lamps. Didnt care for it much personally. I never used them because it added too much yellow to the HID lamps.
