to anyone who has installed the kit: i am sure you lose flash to pass, since HIDs do not support this feature, but is it possible to hook the flash to pass up to the fog lights?

Not trying to sound rude at all but, why would you want to spend that kind of money for lights?

What exactlly are you getting out of these? Brighter Lights? Whiter Lights? I don't know anything about HID. So this seems like a lot of money for headlights.

That isn't exactly right. You still have fash to pass as the bulb will start up very quickly and the light shield response is very fast, but it is not a good idea to start up the bulb immediately after it was on. This has to do with the technolgy. It will damage the bulb over time. Also a voltage drop when the lights are on isn't good either. Suggest you start the engine first, then turn on the lights (which is a good practice anyway).

For the guy that posted "whats the big deal with HID", he needs to get out of the city and do some driving in the country with a HID equiped car.
