I wrote a procedure on installing HID's in the low beams, and the fog lamps. Also detailing how I installed my C5 fog lights in my Z06. You can pick up the HID bulbs and ballasts for around $80 now.

I'm gonna assume you have some of these from JW. If so, which temp did you go with? I think I'd go with the 5000k or the 6000k, anything more would be blue and I think those are illegal here.

Why would you go with 5k instead of 6k?

Exactly. 6k has just a hint of blue. 5k looks perfect, and puts the most light on the road. Well, 4300k might put even more light on the road, but 5k will look better. More aftermarket, less o.e.

I got mine from JW earlier this year when he had a GP for IIRC $575 shipped. Also have the 5k looking forward to seeing them when I get home!
