Trying to figure out the best place to get HID's from my new LT Suburban. I had them factory on my Escalade and can't stand the halogen bulbs that come with the Suburban. I had HID in my fog lights as well. Has anyone done HID in their fog lights as well? I want to do the 55 watt ballasts like I had in my fog lights in my Escalade. So I'm assuming the 55 watt ballasts would be the best for the headlights. Also deciding if it's worth putting HID in the high beams or just leave them as is. Also want to put LED's in the reverse lights and license plate. The Suburban takes H11 I believe for the low beam. Thanks for any help

HID in the lows and fogs. It takes HIDs to long to warm up to be switching back and forth. Don't the new suburbans come with HIDs factory?

Also 25w works well in the fogs and 35 in the lows. Keeps them from melting the housing.

The LTZ comes with HIDs but apparently not the LT which is crazy for the amount of money that it cost!

Thanks I'm not sure if I should do 5k or 6 k what do you think would be better. My factory Escalade ones were 4300 K

I run 5000k in mine. Plenty of light output with the 35w. I also ran them in my 07 Denali with projectors and they were great.

I put the LED fogs in front Xeon Depot but they're not that bright. But they look way better than the halogen ones. I saw on here the LED 80 Watt fogs and are thinking about those but they're pricey like $120 but if they last it's worth it

Are you running your fog lights all the time? I have the ones from Xenon and their perfect for the price . Specially for the amount of times we get to use them

You should also consider getting the 55w LED's for low beam. As easy to install as halogens and much brighter. No ballasts, or relays, or canbus, or cutting dust covers involved.
