What is the difference between the H11 and H11B?
I could not find anything about "ground shadow" on google, because everything was related to photoshop.

If you're near Toronto, you're more than welcome to take a look at the kit after I install it.

yea i heard quite a few good things about these guys..

it's definitely going to be a little cheaper than buying the morimoto kit.

It's the same kit as this. I see a lot of GS and IS drivers use it on their cars. And after reading the reviews. you can't go wrong..

don't get me wrong, i believe it's a good product. i've done some searching around. but i'm just not sure if i need the other more expensive kit because that kit comes with a relay harness and i been told that i need it.

any advice regarding this? sorry total newbie to this.

You don't need a harness for the CT.

I chose heavy duty harness, but they sent me the canbus adapter things.

I installed it a few weeks ago, and so far so good.
Left it on auto, and have had zero misfires so far.
The quality of the kit is definitely much better than most of the crappy chinese kits out these.
One connector was broken though so I just used electrical tape.

I also removed my HID fogs and went back to the halogen.
(because I don't ever want to take off the bumper again)
