High shot of Nav's HID upgrade

Our cars, side by side, HIDs top and bottom, along with LED running lights. Of note, I am using a 285K MCD 10MM bulb where Nav is using a store bought LED bulb. Both LED bulb colors are rated at 7000K. Nav's HID lights are 5000K, mine are 6000K.

The ballast and support box mounted to the internal supports for the bumper cover. Convenient place to mount things and keeps all the wires on the bumper cover for easy removal later.

The bulb mount modified with a hole big enough to allow the plug to slide through and then the bulb inserted into the hole and caulked to seal things back up.

Stepping through the internal removal. The left one has the bulb removed, the right one has a 1/2" hole drilled through it and the metal topper removed. Note, there is still the 3 tabs to secure the holder to the fog light housing. DO NOT!!!! remove these 3 tabs.

Converting the factory H11 bulb housings to accept the HID bulbs. The left one is a standard bulb, the right one has the bulb removed in preparation for internal removal.

The arrangement of the ballast boxes behind the headlight. The ballasts sit below the headlight assembly. Lots of room to mount something this size there.

Drilled a hole in the back of the headlight cover, ran all the wires through the supplied stopper. Connected up really easy. Just had to cut the factory plugs off to be spliced in. Please note, try to keep these splices inside the housing as they will last longer as they won't be exposed to the weather.

The front end of Nav's car sitting on the ground in preps for pulling the headlight assemblies. Only took about 20 minutes to get the car to this point.

transfer case valve upgrade. If you haven't done this to your X-Type, this is a must upgrade in my book. Please note, I am using a radiator drain valve and this one has a collar on it. You need the collar because you fit a clear tube into the collar to allow you to refill the transfer case after draining out the fluid.

Cross drilled, slotted rotors, painting the center section and caliper to "hide" them once the wheel is on.

20% tint on the front windows. Nice addition. If you look at the vehicle behind my car, you can get an idea of how dark the tint is.
