I noticed the DRLs dim slightly when the HIDs are on. Can this be disabled?

This is a look I'm going for. How did you mount/place the resistors? I see where they get super hot. I like that the Halo CREES come with a 2 yr replacement guarantee. I'm going to order those.

There were two resistor packs per bulb, and I was able to fit them inside the headlight housing. So far no issues, however we haven't been above 55 degrees here in the PNW since the install. We'll see how they hold up in the summer.

Comparing the two, the OEM Halogens are quite a bit dimmer, yellow... of course that's compared to the LEDs. I like these LEDs, they are nice! At night, there is no comparison between the two. However, I really noticed how the outer ring is noticeably dimmer than the inner, but one light source for 2 rings will do that, I suppose. With the actual HID mains, its not noticeable. Anyway, the yellow LED fogs is next on the lighting upgrade list.

Looks great! I almost put in the 3K LED fog lights when I did mine but decided on pure white to match my headlights and angel eyes. I'm still not sure which I like better...
