Hi everyone. I have a 2010 TL and want to install the hid fog light kit. My question is do you guys/gals think I should install the 5000k kit to match the stock headlights or should I spend the extra money and get 6000k headlight bulbs along with the 6000k hid fog lights?

6k all day!!!! and then some switchbacks to go with it all...thats what im gonna do.

Ive got 6k top and bottom. beautiful match

I had 8500K on my 3G, it was nice, but borderline rice. 6000/6500K is the best

Phillips 5000K are nice bulbs too. expensive though

Get the Kaixen Kit from Josh @ Excelerate.

Here is the 6K Kaixen Kit top & bottom, with Switchbacks




i put back the amber signals. strangely, i like them more.

once i get some cash saved up im gonna do blackura's setup except for instead of switchbacks im just gonna make it so the amber turn signals just light up as a blinker and not a running light. looks much cleaner like that IMO. also gotta get tints, smoked rear tails, fully black out front headlights, and a tekeda intake. well, i guess everyone has a right to be poor in college!
blackura-once i get my first mod in the mail soon ill out up a pic, i think u will like it, you gave me the idea anyway.

How do you do that? What is the term of the device needed in order to make those turn signals off when not in use instead of running lights & signals? I've been trying to search on it, but have had little luck.

On the bulb, there are TWO metal points of electrical contact. Just put a small piece of black electrical tape over one of them.... One is for constant lit, and the other is for blinking... trial and error will let you know which contact is which.

^^ Thanks. I'm taking the front bumper off this weekend to send (drive) my lights to JnC, so I'll totally do that since it's already off, otherwise i guess you just go thru the wheel well (according to the manual).

Thank you everyone for your opinions. What do you guys think of the hid fogs from Hidextra for sale in the sponsoered sale section? Any good?

Oh and blackura where do I get the switch backs you were talking about like the ones on your car?

djtanveer

there are two places that you can get the switchbacks from one is v-leds.com and the other is autolumination.com the ones from v-leds are better made but the running light goes of when the signal is activated which is not as cool as the autoliumination ones. 0.02

I actually have the Philips 5000k. Would the 5000k Kaixen HID kit match it perfectly?

autolumination bulbs are better. but customer service sucks.

Where did u get your bulbs blackura? And which ones?

thanhnike

do u have any pics when u installing the fog lights?
do i need the new ballasts for the new hids on my fog light?

i think you need full HID kit including ballast if you want to replace OEM fog with HID

Hey Blackura, did you ever had any problem after installing HID fog? couple of my friend who installed HID fog ended up damaging some fuses...

I think its mainly because they installed by themselves (my homies are not skiiled like many acurazine members here^^) but I am curious since I am also thinking about putting HID fog.

venom550pm

If you use a harness and relay you won't have any trouble with the fuses in the car. I agree with blackura the 6k is the best, i have the same setup.

NOX 3.2

So your blinkers don't blink amber ?

davensd

This looks nice... but doesn't HID hinder the driver when driving through um.. fog?
