I installed a carriage works cutout black powdercoated billet grille this weekend. The quality and fit of the insert was perfect, I am very pleased. It wasnt easy cutting the honeycomb out. I also put a black painted bowtie to give it an all blacked out look. Next I installed my 6000k HID's in the fogs. I used a relay so the factory wiring isnt in danger of melting, its merely acting as a switch to energize the relay. The actual 12v comes straight from a fused link off the battery.

The pics arent that great (some came out grainy) and I need some nighttime shots but here they are.











And for the ones who asked me for daytime pics of my tails....Heres a couple with just the parking lights on.

 

looks sweet. simple and clean. what Kalvins are you running on the fogs?

 

Looks friggin sweet bro....

 

Thanks......they are 6000k

 

i have 6000 for my head lights and i will use HID on all of my trucks from now on thay make a hell of a difference. i want to get them for my high beams and my fogs also. I'm going with 4300 yellow for the fogs and 8000 with the high beams and get that harness so my high and low are on at the same time also. but that is low on the list.

 

I need to get them for the headlights now...I cant believe how nasty yellow/dim they make the stockers look.

 

its a whole nother world with HID i was on a back road and turned my high beams (stock) and i couldnt see **** that is why i need to convert all of my light to HID. where did you get yours and how much if you dont mind me asking?

 

Oh I bought these frome some member on GMFS...got them for $50 shipped so I figured what the hell.

Got a question....do the ballasts get hot?

I havent touched mine or run them more than 10min yet...lol...but I have mine mounted near some plastic/rubber....could it melt?

 

nope, well mine have not, i have mine on plastic zip ties to hold them one behind the battery and one where the factory air box was and still there have had them since 2006 christmas and been threw everything, mud, sand, big puddles playing when it rans hard and fast. lol

 

Looks good!
