Thanks swanni06....very good write up, in which I was already aware of prior to purchasing my kits....I believe I already explained my view on the HID's in my last post, and realize the positives and negatives about the Kits, but to me, the positives far outweigh the negatives. I am extremely satisfied with the beam of light, and oncoming traffic seams to agree thus far.

Frankly I just cannot stand people trying to belittle others, there are other ways to explain your views without it.

lol well Daniel Stern wrote it I was just trying to defuse the situation and let his knowledge explain it as he knows lighting better than anyone I am sure.

If you are happy with your lights thats all that matters as I see it. ppl just need to realize that everyone likes or disslikes what they want to based on experiance or opinions and opinions are like a$$holes,everyone has one and everyone thinks everyone elses stink...lol

70/65 I think. They were the same ones Mr. Stern recommended for longevity. They are bright as anything you could want. Thing is, unlike the higher wattage bulbs, they'll last longer than a year. Here's the link for the harness

http://www.rallylights.com/SearchResult.aspx?KeyWords=HL28230

That's the harness Daniel Stern designed. It is COMPLETLY plug and play. All you have to do is mount the relays, route the wires, plug the trigger into the passenger side headlight plug from the factory harness and hook the hot and ground up, then plug in the new headlights after you install um. The harness going to the headlights could run 115 volts A/C current...and that's NO exaggeration.
