I'm thinking about retrofitting mine with projector's now. Except instead of the LED around the projector, I want to put a CCFL. IMO I like CCFL's better, but maybe my mind will change after I see yours

Went ahead and Installed the new hid wiring harness since I'm currently running hid bulbs they will plug Into this harness and it's less I'll have to do later! It's all hooked up now and running my 9007 bulbs right now. I know it tells you to mount the relay with the wires facing down but I couldn't find no where to really mount it like that. How did you guys mount y'all's?

Mounted mine on the back side of the header with a zip tie:



Mounted my ballasts on top of the headlight (actually wedged in there, they have not moved yet):

I may move the relay when I put the new headlights in. I used self tapping screws to mount my ballest. Now my black cover don't set back on there right so I may lower my ballest down lower when I put the head lights in as well

Here is the link to how to make your own clear fog light lenses (and has some pics of H1 retros in the fogs), plus it has some pics of a white truck like yours.

this looks like a good idea may try it.... Or either do led bars in the fog light holes. Unsure

LED's cost a lot more. That link is the only one I have seen with HID's in the fogs, but have not seen any output shots of them mounted.
I am really wanting to try this, but plan on using 3000k bulbs.
