bought them off a vendor from nasioc. Lifetime warranty on balasts AND bulbs.

I got the hi/low BUT the Hi beams dont work I guess on subaru and Fords they have been having that issue.

They offered for me to send them back and they would send me just the "low" single beam ones and a refund for the difference, but i didnt want to have to take everything off and wait to get the others in... so i just kept them.

heres the thread/vendor i bought from

I got the idea from Sybir at the lat Thurs night meet. He modified a sun visor clip to make it work like that.

I just has scrap metal around so i used that haha.

my friend and i decided to tackle the issue with my high beams on the HIDs.

Pulled out the volt meter and plugged away. The harness that came with the kit was basically useless. We spliced and soldered up our own while continuously checking things along the way. Things work great now. Hi/lows and the Hi beam indicator on the dash is only on when the hi beams are

Ill try to get some pics later if im not too lazy lol

Sooooo some great news tonight driving back home from the local meet..... Idk what made me do it but, i decided to press my fog light button on...........AND THEY WORKED!!!!

They havnt worked since i installed my STi cluster! I thought it had something to do with the cluster but now i think it was due to my HIDs or those and a combination of the cluster.

Im guessing since my friend and i made our own harness for the Hi/low HIDs to work, that sorted out the fog light issue in some weird way

All i know now is that tomorrow i think ill be buying the yellow stain glass paint to get the yellow fogs ive always wanted haha!
