Haha I guess I would eh
Well that unusual traffic increase and enquiries started about the same time you were posting on FB. Can't hurt, and again, thanks! IT's YOU lollll

A lot of ppl is also asking me the same 'install' question, and I refer them to Charles lol Thing is, there are 10 different ways to DIY those headlights. Recommending a (one) method to someone who (most likely) is far more advanced skill-wise than I am, could become quite embarrassing. Not to mention my elegant Frenchglish writing skills :/

I'll see if I can "video" the whole process - from heating/opening the headlight, enlarging the socket hole from 21 up to 23mm, fitting/aiming the bi-xenon, down to the connectivity of the ballast on the existing headlight circuit. I'll make it as simple as possible (simplicity rules!). It's really not as complicated as some may believe.

I'll go make a fool of myself and video that soon (aiming at Feb). Again, just for you Martin

Hey Fred, you may recall I had told you that I was working on a DIY instruction for the kit, assembled from you, Charles and others on the forum. I have something cobbled together now, but I want you and Charles to look at it first. PM coming.

FULL refund on your kit + shipping and tons of virtual kisses coming your way - if it passes Charles' QC of course!

Sure those of us who've been wanting to join the "Exterminate-the-Halogen Secret Society" will much appreciate this Norm.
