looks good man.. Yea I need to shuffle around my relay the ground wire that came with it isn't long enough so I need to extend it so I can tuck the relay a little bit better and I may fudge around a few things to tuck it just right.

I did the same I soldered my connections and heat shrinked/ electrical taped. If the relay ever dies on me i'm not really that worried I can get a relay anywhere and since the pins are universal just plug the new one in.

Looks cool...I'm really surprised that you did not paint them since they were open. How about a straight on pic?

CCFLs can be bought at retrofitsource.com or ebay.

And trust me, HIDs are muyst better and brighter than halogens. Like Dog said in the beginning, I can drive home with just my fogs alone. I think they put out as much light (although more clear) as the halogens
