Getting hid headlights and fogs
Iam getting hid headlights and foglights and i was just wondering if there is anything that i should know before i install them, i heard that the 2007 and up have a fuse that has to be removed or it will blow the bulbs.

Take out daytime running light fuse. Make sure all connections are great and sealer properly. Plug and play kits are straight forward. Mount the ballast well

it means if you have an 05/06 you dont have to do anything because the DRL's are your parking lamps. For 07+ the DRL use your actual headlight.

Shop buyhids when you decide to get some. I've probably made 10 purchases from them and yet to encounter a problem!
