So the HID kit costs $60, and depending on your preference, you can have a bosch or philips brand sticker for $230. Wow, those are expensive stickers!

No not yet, I am at 2,6xx miles right now. I'll install the kit when I reach close to 5,000 which I predict to be around feb or march.

When do you plan to install yours? Please share your experience with pictures.

Are you waiting to do it after your first oil change so they dont see that you modded your brand new truck? :-)

I will install mine when the weather is better here .Its been raining and we are expecting ice tomorrow.(I have to do it outside). If I do not get it done here,next week we are going to Canada for the holidays.My wifes uncle has a repair,detail shop.I will do it there if it comes down to it.Yes,I will take pics.

Another member a while ago had a nice thread on installing the kit.I am going to follow that and also the insallation instructions online from xenon depot. I beleive the older kits had one relay where ours has two.

Hi,

That is correct. The newer kits have a dual relay set up. We did this so that if a relay/fuse ever went out on you only one side will be effected.
