It's probably posted some place and I missed it (probably knowing me). What's the time frame looking on getting my LEDs?

I had a 2006 cobalt ss with 6k hid 55 watt headlights and 6k 35 watt foglights , is there any difference now that I have a 2007 cobalt ss ? Will I need a relay harness for this car or anything since it uses the headlights as daytime running lights and its illegal to drive without them in the daytime where I live? I can't exactly pull the fuse lol

They HIDs will work but if you want your warranty you will have to pull the DRL and just turn on the parking lights as DRLs

also Relay Harnesses are HIGHLY recommended on all HIDs

all that is different is the DRL its just a good idea to running relay to protect your stock wiring and to keep a constant power to the ballast

55W 8000K will match 6000K 35W

Update: HID Kits & LEDs have arrived. I will be shipping 99% of them tomorrow. I arrived home to late to do any shipping today. Be patient guys . They all ship out Priority Mail So most should recieve them within 2-4 business days. PLEASE remember i dont work for USPS if it takes longer, I have nothing to do with it

As for the retrofit headlights, Im waiting for the last batch of headlights to arrive I have all the parts from TRS in stock so im building them slowly. I have 9-12 sets to build so its not an instant process with my 40hr work week at my job.

Is there anyone who has installed the retrofit kit, has it working correctly, and can help me? I can't get the brights and the driving lights working at the same time. If I wire one way, I have brights but no driving. Wired the other way I have driving but no brights.... I have been in contact with mkulrey13 last week, and I sent a PM today but have not been able to get a response yet.

what do you mean by driving lights? DRLs? Low Beams? Orange bulbs?

Sorry, I meant low beams. The way I have it now I have lows but no brights. When I hit the brights, the solenoids cycle but then it turns the bulbs off.

I have everything hooked up, I believe, according to what he has told me. He said the paper that came with the harness was wrong and told me how I should wire it. He told me I needed to swap the black and orange on the connection from the stock harness, and then take the blue wire harness to the brights solenoid, and the orange wire harness to the ballast. I did this and my wiring now looks like this:



But now I don't get lows, but the lights will turn on when I hit the brights, but the solenoids are not working the shutters anymore.

The headlights are wired like this:

Except that the blue and orange wires are now reversed from where they are in that picture, as in, the blue wire is going to the brights shutter and the orange is going down towards the ballast.
