I had a pair of lexus 9006 capsule laying around for a while. I orginally was going to put this in my 4th gen, but I couldn't get the lens off for the life of me. Luckily the lenses came off easy on the 5.5th gen. I wanted the 9006 capsule so to better clear the HID bulb. Unfortunately the passenger light was cracked, so when I pulled the lens of, it split in 2. I ended up using clear silicone to glue it back together and seal the lens.

Another thing I notice is the 9006 capsule are just a tad bit too long. I had to modify the base to get them to sit as flat as possible on the reflector. When putting the lens back on, I think I cracked the driver side one. I also accidently dropped the passenger side capsule, so 2 small chunks broke out. I will need to redo these at some point.

The only thing I'm worried about now is glare. Since I removed the glare shield, and because of the capsule length, there was no way that I could attach it to the end of the capsule.

I will try to get some night pics later on.

I did that with my headlights, before I went back to the stock 4300k

When I had the setup I have to say everything lit really well at night




it was cool to have for a little while but I like the OEM HID look with yellow fogs like you have now

I'm doing a projector retrofit with q45 projectors (down the road)

 

it matches your air freshener lol looks good though

 

Yellow fogs FTW

 

Omg sodium vapor lamps lol like you see in industrial parking lots, I like them as fogs those, not so so on the main lamps.

 

Vanillaroma FTGDMFW!

 

Not a fan of 3000k in the headlights but they look great in the fogs only with HIDS...IMO

 

Fogs only (the lights were just turned on, so they look a little green, but they get more yellow once they warm up). I had the camera in night-mode, so things appear dimmer:




Fogs + Headlight:

 

with the yellow head lights ( not the fogs ) did you get a lot of glare?

 

yellow fogs ftw =]
