I'm happy with the results.

Lookin' good!
In my opinion, there's no better or easier mod that updates the VX as well as a lighting swap. HIDs from XenonRider (others here have mentioned also), plus an LED conversion from VLED (with a member discount, no less!) is a one-hour project.

1.25 hours. Don't forget the extra 15 min to find the bad ground:)Quote:

But like you said, " that's why you need an electrical engineer around." LOL

I prefer "Electrimical Enginerd"
I only knew to look for it because I'd already spent 30 min doing the same thing on Wifey's car.
Now mebbe you can 'splain to me why I was never able to get the high beams working on her's??? I'm of the mind set that HID are bright enough that you don't need no stinkin high beams ... the stoopid inspection station disagrees.
BTW, the firstest thing they teach you when getting your BS-EE is: If it's not working ... is it plugged in? If it's plugged in & still not working ... does it have a good ground.
