I would like to have some more info on the 4HI mod and wiring the fog lights so they come on auto like the headlights. It seems like there was a really cheap way to do the 4hi mod but I don't remember it. This weekend while I have the truck apart I would like to do it if at all possible

did you upgrade to 55w?

Our 55w HID kits are 40% brighter than the standard 35w kits.
The 55W system ballasts are about 1 cm longer than the 35W ballasts.
55w kits tend to wash out some of the color of the HID bulb due to the light output( for example, a 55w 8000k will look similar in color to a 35w 6000k kit).
what do they mean by "wash out some of the color"?
so the 8000k bulb won't look as blue?
btw, this is the slim ballast.

Where do the two resistors go and what kind exactly do I need? Is that for just the 4hi mod or the fog lights on with the headlight at night? Right now as I am sure you know the headlights are automatic and the fogs do not. I want to make them come one automatically and them to stay on with the brights along with the low beams.
