HID Foglights Installed - Corners Coded Off

I swapped out the OEM H11 Bulb with a 35W HID Kit From DDM in 6000K.

I pulled the bumper as I needed to replace a bumper grill that was cracked.
and I also wanted to remount the ballasts for my LED AE Bulbs and the drivers side headlight assembly is a pain to work on with the Headlight washers and stuff behind it in the way. I figured it would make the ballast mounting easier as well.

Oh and I swapped the OEM DS2 in the low beam to a 6000K to color match the fogs. "Another reason I wanted to remove the headlight"

Bumper Removed


Testing before install




LED A.E.'s Stock Fogs, Corners on


LED A.E.'s, HID Fogs, Corners on


And the Final Result 12W LED AE's, 6000K HID Fogs, NO Orange Corners


When I first installed the kit I did have an issue with my MID showing a SLS disabled message and cycling off of the low beams randomly.

I post about this on the forum and a few members recommended trying the BOW modules from DDM I ordered the set and it fixed my issues.

Thanks guys! I think the finished result looks damn nice.

I'll snap some when the sun goes down. It should look cool in the snow.
