  1. Looks good! Are those projectors your old MH1? Looks like you didn't have to cut the bowl for them, and your cutoff is awesome!!! love that shroud
  2. Nice!!! Just wanted to add to this because this sentence can be wrong. "If you have OEM projectors and have put HIDs in, then you're fine as well." It should be, If you have OEM HID projectors you can change the color [Kelvin] of a HID bulb and be good as well. BUT if you have OEM Halogen projectors that usually takes a HIR bulb You should not be installing a HID bulb into them! Doing so could cause even more glare to oncoming drivers. Just like the pictures of the HID bulb and the Halogen bulb difference, the same is true for projectors. A halogen projector is optimized for a Halogen bulb. Placing a HID bulb into a Halogen projector will give a different focal point causing light to leak above the cutoff shield. This type of glare can be very bad as the light leak is now projected at oncoming drivers causing a more intense glare. I see this a lot more with the Dodge trucks that have the OEM Halogen projectors. Now there is a proper way to do this as well. It involves removing the Halogen projector usually out of the back of the headlight housing and replacing it with a OEM HID projector that will fit and bolt right up.
  3. Running your high beams for 15 minutes or so will clear them back up. Your HIR bulbs will do the same thing but not as bad as the factory bulbs.
  4. HIR all the way!!! Make sure your wires aren't backwards on the LED plug side before the LED driver. When I installed my HID ballasts I had the same issue, the lights would shut off when I put it into gear. I switched the wires at the plug on the relay harness and that solved the lights turning off when put into gear. My relay harness only uses the drivers factory light plug, that's why both of my lights went out.

    MD2S retrofit.

    MD2S projector with Apollo shrouds.
  6. What did you use to stick them back together with? I'd use some jb-weld.
  7. The lights at rockauto are good aftermarket lights that use butyl as a sealant. Lights with butyl are way more easy to bake open compared with the OEM lights with permaseal. You will still need to bake open the rockauto lights and paint the chrome black, and reassemble.
  8. Do you need a RPi2 or can the B+ be used?
  9. I was looking at this same product, thanks for the negative review.
  10. I love my XB LED fogs!Did you get the TYPE M? I installed Philips 9011 HIR bulbs in my highbeam and there was no trimming of the bulb needed.
  11. I read somewhere, maybe in the manual that there is a black clip inside the console beside the USB port that you take out and run the USB cable to the front bin somehow. I looked at mine and I did find the plastic clip that comes off but I never really looked on how to feed the USB cable to the front bin.
  12. Yes, you use the USB port in the center counsel to connect your phone. Or you can use Bluetooth to stream to your radio and plug it into the 12V socket to charge. USB is first choice, but since ios8 it doesn't really work good anymore for many. I use the Bluetooth as the USB doesn't even see my iphone 5 since I took the 8.2 update.
