Yeah, you mentioned the foglights issue before. I'm going close to the 3 months mark with my HIDs (knock on wood) with no problems yet. But no worries from me as the Volt kit has a two year warranty.

I drilled my housing cap as well but did not use silicon or any type of sealant. No problems with HID fogs for 2 years now.

Thumbs up Gotta LUV SewellParts Online!!!!

well kids my parts came in today! i'm going to revert back to stock foglights for now. i may end up ordering better quality HIDs. the ones i got from Xentec have yet to give me a problem with my highs and lows but the fogs have been a pain for me.:-/

I bet your going to miss those HID fogs! I know I love mine and could never go back to Blahh stock..lol

I would recommend Xenondepot--I have had his kit for over a year and Zero issues. Fogs been in about 3 months and perfect so far.

i actually kinda like the fogs with regular ol' bulbs in them. compared to my 6000K lows they look a bit yellow.....not like dog pee yellow but yellow none the less. it'll work for now.
