Default xenon and e-code are installed...

today I put xenon and e-code together. and here are couple pictures I took. BTW for people who did SPP's xenon upgrade kit, how did you handle the wire to battery...I did like this for now, but I don't know.

Default I use mine as running lights every now and then...

but if you wire them the traditional way (to parking lamps) they'll stay on with your xenons and yellow up the housings. You need a relay to fix that.

Default oh man...damn postal workers....

glad that you've recieved it...

remember go lightly on the oil and let it dry before you stick it in. you should only need about a quarter sized drop on your hands and message it in.

Thanks for the update!

Default Why did you wire the lights to your battery?

Instead of just tapping your existing headlight wires?
