2011 Headlights (merged threads)
There are those of us, definitely in the minority, who will have nothing to do with a social web site. I stay away, far away, from Twitter, Facebook, and what have you for a lot of reasons.
If you post your promo codes on Facebook, you will be missing out on customers who feel as I do. Maybe we are in the minority, but we do exist.

I ordered one set
, my next mod would be F-sport bumper, but I've heard that the 2011 parking assist sensor are smaller than the previous model? I wonder how it would fit? I think there are some one on the forum did the conversion? can anyone confirm how would the sensor fit? thanks

the stripped version. t's stripped down of everything but the essentials. The light ballast is expensive and so is the HID bulb. If your IS is already equipped with HID lamps from the factory, then you already have the ballast and you already have the bulb. Why buy another right.
The loaded lamp option is required for Halogen users because it includes the required light ballast and HID bulb. However, if you've out-smarted us then I suspect you'll want to source your own light ballast and bulb on your own to lessen the cost.

i asked darrel the same question, but he didn't have an answer for it.
Again, if the HID KIT you currently have consists of a bulb and the ballast then you're simply substituting yours for ours. Why wouldn't it work?

I do not think any aftermarket kits or ballasts will be plug & play into the OEM Housings..
Also, there is only one style and size of D4S HID Bulb that will work with the OEM Housings.. (from 2006 to 2012)
Just my .02 cents

If the KIT you're referring to is simply the ballast and the bulb, then I see no reason it would not work however without having more specifics it is difficult to determine if what you want to work will work without trial and error. We already have a solution to remedy your concern (loaded headlamp option), however it seems you're attempting to use something else in it's place.

It does come with the new relay flasher. I made a mistake and ordered a second one, but thankfully Darrel caught it.
