i know, i'll definitely be in contact in advance, my main problem is downtime.... i'd honestly love to do the lights when i know the car will be outta comission for like a week or so, powdercoating stockers at the same time while the car sits on stands would be ideal, but we'll see... i have no DD then so what would i do about work lol :/

As far as painting the inside of the light, would i need any special kind of paint or will normal spray paint be fine?

Just finished up, it looks amazing thanks for the write-up... Although I think the hardest part was getting the connector through the rubber around the brights hook-up, maybe a little more info on that. I ended up pushing a paper clip through, hooking the wire and pulling it back through the rubber that seemed to be the easiest way.

What type of bulb is used on the parking lights? Are those the superbright LED replacements?

Sorry guys, cannot be talking more about other types of products since I am not a vendor over here.

This was just meant as a tool for the installation since so many of you have purchased these kits and no formal instructions were given. I was tired of repeating the same directons over and over, so i figured this would be the best place to post them

i'm about to wire my inverters up. could someone confirm for me where each wire on the inverter should be soldered to on which wire on the parking lights? from caesar's pics and descriptions, i'm assuming its the black wire on the inverter to the black wire on the parking lights and the red wire on the inverter to the green with red stripe wire on the parking lights. i just want to make sure before i begin soldering. thanks!

Hey Ceasar, when do you think you'll have the instructions for the 06/07 up or do you have something that you can send me if I want to do this? This is next on my to do list. I was actually thinking about doing this and blackening out my headlights this weekend or the next. Great work by the way. Everything you've done is just amazing!!
