Not meaning to dredge up an old thread (that has old title), but just adding an update to my earlier post. I bought the HID kit from KBCARSTUFF over a month ago and it works perfect...not one complaint. I bought the Philips 4300 upgrade bulbs, rest of kit is the standard XenonDepot kit, with the Canbus adapters (they act as your capacitors also - confirmed with KBCARSTUFF tech guy). I was afraid to write this (Murphy's Law says that now I'll have an issue!), but given that everything has worked perfectly, I am hopeful they will keep working great for long time. If anything fails I'll come back...

Quick question did any of you who upgraded need to realign the projectors or notice you get flashed by oncoming traffic?

Those who used the extreme HID 35w, did you use the relay? I haven't installed yet but plugged one in without the relay and it worked OK.

What have people done about the auto lights - anyone managed to get the DRL harness from gen5diy to work with HID?

Thanks

RikMN, I've always checked after putting in HID's, measured and adjusted as needed. With these truck sitting up a bit higher I try to be respectful of others... We have all seen the dumbass who didn't and it is annoying AND a waste of the investment if the light isn't hitting the road where it is needed.

Xenondepot.com is the same company and has the canbus option shown.
