I was asking what all you had to get your kit to work, and whether 35w or 55w is needed. Someone beat you to it, but still leaves the 35w vs 55w question...

IMO 55w is overkill. 35w is bright enough for me. never tried the 55w.
i thought i read somewhere of the 55w melting/burning the fog light housing. the hids sit closer to the lense.

This is why I went with the 35w, read numerous threads about it. also, people with the 55's complained of flickering, then went to the 35s and never had a problem.

I would be safe and get the relay kit, it's only $15. Pulls the power straight from the battery that way and is fused.

They gave me a tracking number, but it doesn't seem to work. Anybody else have this problem?

Mine doesn't really work either. I have a usps tracking number and it just says that it has been shipped from China. I'm really not worried about it, these guys seem to be reputable.
