Pretty straight forward install, actually pretty easy. My questions are:

1) Did you remove your DRL function?
2) Did you need to re-adjust the headlights?
3) Have you had any issues?

1) Yes, it supplies the lights with a lower amount of power which can be bad for HID's

2) I did have to with my 55W kit because it was in the eyes of oncoming drivers

3) Only issues I had were with the accessory harness which was wired backwards to one of the clips, but others who had the same problem walked me through where to look and troubleshoot.

I did remove the DRL fuse.. Unless you took out the headlights to install, I dont think you would need to re aim the headlights.. The only thing I would suggest is to run a bead of silicone in and around that rubber grommet that went in the hole u drilled in the cap for the headlights.... What a difference when driving at night!!! Enjoy...

I used the 35w kit....MORE than enough for me! lol Thanks for the heads up!

I did remove the headlights, and I did use silicone on the grommet! Good advice as well! Thanks!
