Its not very clear on the web site on how to order specific HID fog lights for the X. Does it include a special harness to retrofit the 6000k lights in the fog light housing?

I love the lowered look! Any changes in drive comfort?

I take it you needed a bit more umff with the sound system. I'm a bit dissapointed with my DSP system. Lacks dynamics!!!

Congrats on your X!

Ride Quality

Was your ride quality impacted adversely after you got it lowered?

Eh I don't know how practical this lowering is in real life, but it certainly looks good.

Id actually say yes there is a bit of a diff. Cuz the front dips down by a lot i think, the rear does not as much it almost seems the same. But by the front dipping down a lot it takes away some of the body roll in my opinion, it like hugs the corner wit the front very well

First of the little thing is this "line out converter" you tap into your stock subs' connector(certain wires) with this converter. And then from that converter goes RCA's to your amp. Finding a good ground and just all the little stuff like unbolting things and moving stuff out the way is the gay part but besides that its not that bad.
I see, that's cool. If you ever want the amp and stuff hidden, like I said before, you can remove the stock sub and all that crap can be hidden in that right compartment. Then all you see is the sub. =)

hey..i would mount that amp in a better place for safety purposes...i do car systems....and i seen alotta burnt carpet...besides that...avoid putting it in the sub compartment to the corner...that may make it overheat and youll look embarrassed when that amp shuts off to cool down while ur shuttin someone down with that W7...i would suggest fastening it to the box....and hiding the wires
