For you guys who have installed kits, such as those from xenondepot.com, did you have to cut any factory harnesses? Or do they use adapter plugs, etc.?

If you get a good supplier there is NO splicing into any OEM wires, its all plug and play.

Another Question:

For our fogs, they say a 9005 is also known as an H3 or a 9145. Is this true? The 9005 kit should work for our fogs?

Yeah looks like I'm using 9005's!! They don't have H10's on the site I'm buying from, and that guy on the other site used them. Hope they fit ok!!

Some people report direct plug-n-play, others report a minute amount of shaving. Either way, the 9005 will work. I plan on using 9005's all around (lows, highs, and fogs).

Wow, what a rip. $480 shipped for my kits and that includes the wiring harness, which you will need.

I thought you were against "plug and play kits" ?

Against it? Heck no. And as far as the "wow what a rip" well, I don't see you advertising the fact that you even SELL kits?! Do you have an online store? hmmm....

Just a recommendation...if the housing is made for H10...you should go with H10. Even though the bulb might sit in the housing...if the focal point of the light is any different between the 9005 or h10 the beam pattern will not be as great.

I dont know what the results were on using the 9005 or how the beam pattern was - this is just a general note.

Also McCulloch HID's are not German made by any means...they are of much higher quality then most other brands if not all other brands but they are manufactured in good old honk kong.
