make sure you adjust your fogs down a bit so that you don't throw glare onto oncoming traffic. i adjusted mine by sitting in another car and facing my g and lowering the fogs until i saw no glare. this also helps light up the road in front of you better than if you just left them alone. it takes a while to get them even and level, but i think its worth it to be considerate of other drivers since the hid's throw out a lot more light than the incandescents.

there's a diy for it on here somewhere. it's not completely plug and play as advertised, but pretty close. you shouldn't have to drill any holes through the plastic caps as in one of the diy's. there's some cutting of factory wires, so think and make sure you're cutting what needs to be cut at the length you need to cut them. i recommend unscrewing the cap and cutting them on the inner side of the cap. that way, you have more length in the power and ground wires coming from the harness. the most difficult part is getting the wires through the rubber grommet. if you need any assistance while you're doing it, pm me and i'll give you my number to ask questions if you have them.

looking at it, it looks good, but the light output seems to be mediocre. is that just the picture or are you happy with the output and the beam pattern? i noticed this on another person's 3000k hid kit as well. the beam pattern looks nothing like the lower fogs on my 2010.

The ones in my av are vleds. The ones in the pic are jdmtoys 6000k white led. That's odd that they are having trouble getting them shipped. I've always had items within a week of ordering them. Those guys are usually much better with customer service, but I guess these things are hot items.

Hellfire, are the headlight different Kelvin ratings too? The top pics look more white and the headlights look blue in the pic with 3000k fogs.

Same bulbs in the low beams. The ones with 5000k fogs were taken over a year ago with my digital camera. The ones with the 3000k fogs were taken a few weeks ago with my iPhone 4. But it's the same.

The output is great from the 3000k. I wouldn't expect it to be the same as the 2010 fogs because the housings are different.
