I got the bulbs for hella cheap from eBay seller name "ckw1228". A lot of people here buy the kits from LuxuryMods too.
The plate looks great. Not too bright. and Not yellow light anymore

Sick of the Hood falling down on your head? Replace those worn out Hood Struts in 10 minutes flat.
Bought mine on eBay for $29 from deezeeauto and the brand is "StrongArm" and they come with the swivel ball bolts so you dont have to drill out your old ones.
Unscrew the factory ones with a 12mm
Reinstall the new ones Used a (7/32) - Done Deal! Hood Raises up by itself.

ok, so i know i already did a walkthrough on how i did my tail lights. but since i had a bad resistor on one i had to ship em back and get another set. I did these a lil bit different.
new K2's
scuffed
darkened lower white area and thinned out turn/reverse area
cuttin the design
ready for final sprays
Onyx Black sprayed lightly and 4 coats of clear
Show you the bulbs lit up
Still need to wet sand and orbital in a day or two

thanks man
i was surprised they didnt mind. so, even though they arent braga's and can have issues at least the customer service end of the company is good.
as far as the hood struts, when i bought mine i didnt even think about the ball nuts being included. luckily they were in the pack. once they arrived it made sense why some people have to drill theirs out. worked out well. that was an easy install
