Error eliminator is for the BMW cars, which have relay error codes for when a ballasts goes out.

As for the dual in dual out, I am not sure. I would assume it's a daul ended harness to tap each...

The 11-12 reflector housings are big enough to dissipate the small increase in heat, I'm pretty sure. I know my F150 headlights were.

As for projector setups, they have a much better venting...

What's rice about them, Danny? The fact that yellow is the most functional color to be used to cut through fog? No one said anything about driving around with them on all the time like the rivers do....

50W in the headlights will be fine. And you can actually get better color and more lumens from a 50W 5000K setup than you can a 35W 4300K setup.

I changed my 35W 5000K setup to a 50W 5000K setup...

Danny, get some 50W ballasts and 5000K bulbs from TRS. You will wonder why you didn't in the first place. :D

Unfortunately we can't run a 50W system in our '13 cars unless we completely disregard...

Yeah, you are correct. I thin some leans a little more towards 4400-4500K, like Benz and BMW, or their projector setups are just that awesome with amazing color shift.

That's because they are uneducated on the subject and shops will do anything to sell that crap. I wish manufacturers would stop making anything above 6000K. But obviously that won't happen.

Anything higher than 6000k is pointless.

Even then 6000k can be on the boundaries.

50W 6000K is another story.

Bulbs are H1 if I recall correctly. Or H11.


Pretty much. But I will have everything related together so when I do turn on my lower fogs they grill fogs will shut off.

Still wish they had chosen a better color LED. 5700K is stupid for a fog light to actually be useful. 4500K would've been much better...or even 5000K.

4700K is the absolute best color for a projector housing setup. The colorshift at that point is amazing, and the light output is about as close to optimal as you will get.

Are you talking about tinting the fog lights in the grill? I assume so since tinting the lens of the tiny projector would be difficult.

If you are going to use the fog lights in actual fog, get...
