Dropped And 6000k lights

I got my 4.8 dropped by the air suspension by my dealership. Now all i need is a lil chip that will let me drive in "Access" mode cuz thats the mode its in, in all of the pics.

(Its dropped to the lowest, or at least as low as "Frankie" had his.)

Cost???

How much did the dealer charge to lower? This was through the DIS right?

I think I have the exact same setup as you. JL 12W7 with the JL 1000W amp. My sub is sitting in the exact same place as yours, but I had the amp installed in the compartment on the right where the stock sub is. They removed the stock sub, and the length of the amp fits perfectly in there. I don't have a cap tho, and haven't had any problems powering the amp without one. What is that other little piece you have in the bottom right corner of the pic?

<What Kind of light set up I have>
I ordered my lights from Jlevi.(www.jlevisw.com) both my headlights and my fogs are 6000k.

<Lowered>
By my dealer, yes through DIS, for 150$, satisfied me

<How to install sub>
I have never installed audio wise in my car. This was my first time not only installing a system in a car but also actually undoing the main battery from the car.

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.
