lookin good. did something similar on the dmax, cheap pro comp race lights with HID conversions. Don't stand a chance against real HIDs, but brighter than halogens.

Where did you mount the ballasts? Is there enough wire? did you have to extend the wire?

Excellent post !

Excellent post !
the ballasts i mouinted behindthe bumper on the cross braces, just using zip ties. there was plenty of wire, probably a foot at least; no mods necessary. i just used a standard fog light harness that i already had installed so it was as simple as using that as the power supply.
i'd have used the stock fog light harness to power them for a completley factory circuit but my switch is bad.
