Default ecodes are on!

Well, I've completed my first mod. Replaced stock halogens with Xenon e-codes. I also replace h7 bulb with H7sl (Silver Light). I am still waiting for shipment of fog bulbs to much with HID. The biggest problem at this point is the city light, which looks extreamly yellow with HID on. Any recommendation on the white bulb?
Anyway, it took me 45 mins to complete the job and I simply love the results.

Default you lucky guy!!!

i was contemplating getting a Digital Rebel not too long ago, but found it difficult to justify the cost since I am just starting out after college...I ended up goin with a Sony DSC-V1...not a true DSLR, but it has the capability to go full manual which leaves me with plenty of options from a point and shoot...and the Sony was half the cost of the Rebel....

Did that 45 minutes include realigning your headlights?

Default I bought advance optik city light bulbs to go with my xenon e-codes

they don't match perfectly but they are certainly much more white than the stock city light bulbs.

Well, sort of
Before removing stock halogens I marked the light patterns on my garage doors then realigned the Xenons to generate similar patterns. I should probably go to my dealer to make sure that all is set properly. BTW: Should those pattern be the same for Halogens and Xenons?
Thanks,
Wojtek

Update: I just came back from my dealer.

So the garage door methodology worked well for me.
