Just got all 6 of mine in today. Question - I ordered 3 sets of these (2 for my brother, 4 for me) and all the boxes seem the exact same except for one thing. On the bottom one of the boxes says in yellow DRIVING LAMP KIT, and the other two say in orange HALOGEN LAMP KIT. Did they screw up and send me two sets of nicer lights? Both are checked off on the side of the box as driving lamps. They screwed up the order cause any yellow light is a fog light, yellow lights seem to work better in fog cause ti can cut through the fog instead of reflect off but are pretty much useless in clear dark as hell nights. |

I dont think they did. The lenses are still clear. |

I would like to make it known that I fucking hate wiring anything in a vehicle. These lights are definatly the last piece of auxillary electronics going into my jeep. seriously? i can wire one of these hella kits all fucking day. no way is it close to a difficult wiring install Its not difficult I just don't like doing it. And it was like....15* outside yesterday. |

found the problem, on the inside where the connector is for the bulb there's a small plastic sleeve that goes over it. the sleeve had a small rip and was touching metal. Fixed that today and for 30 bucks I'd say these lights are badass.  |
