Hey nice...they don't look bad at all...I'm definetly digging the fogs as well...I would love to find fogs that were alot brighter, as I'm considering tint...Are those HID as well?

Actually, I need some ammo to talk the woman into the tint. She hates driving my truck because of the tint...of course I'm 1 point under legal...

Now if I can rid of the amber corners by tieing them into the sidemarkers, like I did on the M...Unfortuanetly, I went back to factory, as I originally going to use the M on trade in on the X...But I had a knot in my throat when it came time to part with it....so it's still hanging around...

Well...with little thought, I jumped on them...I figure PIAA usually produces great products. I've used their JP imported bulbs(ebay) on my truck for 4 years now, as well, I'm pretty fond of LED's as I use them for DRL, reverse, all interior, RVM courtesy, and probably other places that I forgot...I've only had a couple burn out, but I'm pointing the blame at GM's superior electrical system..

JFYI...

The online order will only authorise your card payment, I will make sure the money taken from your card will be the cost of the H499 + shipping £15 and no tax.

I am the person who takes the online orders here so I will look out for your name anyway

We only have 13 sets left in stock, so do hurry! first come first served...

thanks

Sorry to come late to my own party.....

The Hoen's looks pretty good, but not perfect. When the Xenons are on, they still look a little yellow. I might try those MTec bulbs, it's worth it for a few bucks.

About the PIAAs, I have always wanted to try those. LEDs are going to be the best color and brightness, but come at a cost. A big cost. DawgBone, please keep us updated. I would love to see pics of the PIAAs on one side and either the MTec or Hoen's on the other side.

I bought the Piaa Fog bulbs and they are a pretty good match with the H.I.D. better than the Hoen's I tried, and the Piaa's are brighter. The Piaa's are more expensive though.

Do you remember what model of PIAAs did you get? I would like to try them. Thanks!
