Had the 105k service done. I asked Gary (Mann Eng..) why does it sound more aggressive now under the hood. His reply - Because it's breathing right - your filter was really clogged -doh!

Uninstalled hid kit. Installed the philips xtreme vision low beams. Then the nokya 3000k halogen fogs. They look nice. Still need to remove the film off my headlights.

Miss having fogs. The bulbs have been blown for over a year!!

I have the same setup.

Did you order the Nokya off of Amazon? I purchased probably 3-4 sets over the year because they kept on blowing out. Luckily, I was able to return them with Amazon. I purchased Luminx and never had an issue since.

I take it you live in the Hillsdale Garden? That was insane. Any word on what exactly happened? I run by there every Thursday and live close by.

They are from ebay but from a us seller. I had an issue with the previous fogs I had which were the sylvania zxe's. They were both blown in less than a month and I wore nitrile gloves while installing.

I searched for like 2 weeks and came to the conclusion these were the best but if they blow ill give luminx a try. Ive never been successful trying to return blown bulbs.

Cant wait til the tint is off the headlights so I can see how bright the philips are.

I took out the leds from the parking light. Surprisingly they were both black in both headlights.....idk how they burnt up. Maybe resistance was too low.....

Added some standard halogen stealth ambers for that nice orange look when lit up.

Cant get my fat fingers to remove the blinker bulb.....think the fixtures have to be removed or needs to be done thru the fender.....
