Thanks and the glare is not noticable while driving and after 3 nights on dark roads nobody has flashed me due to glare.

On a side note: do the city lights always come on when the headlights are? I never noticed before, but now when the lights are on, the city lights in the top corner are too. The switch for them is in the off position so that is out of the equation. Any ideas?

i put my HIDs in but i wanted to hide them so i did. you open my hood you cant tell if i have them or not. it looks as if my 2.5i came with them!
Nice write up though.

Thanks I figure you can never have too many writeups. Anyone know about my city lights remaining on now when my hid's are on?

are you talking about the small bulb (194) at the top of the headlight housing?that is what i call the parking light but call it what you will. so i am replacing mine. i will have white LEDs in their place. the white is just about the same color as the HIDs. its great. hopefully that helped but if not just pm me or something and i am sure we could figure it out. just trying to help!

Look at Axlxa's writeup, he shows what plug in the engine bay to pull to disable DRL.
