so these HID kits - do you need both boxes for them to run or was that just a comparison shot between the old version and the new version?

Just comparing the two kits. You only need one ballast for them to work, I was just comparing the sizes between them.

Wow.... the true meaning of "major makeover." Looking good so far!

I could never save up enough money for a makeover like that. I get happy when I just get a new air freshener!

Looks like it's coming along quite nicely. With the extensive list of mods, I'm sure it's going to be one bad @ss car

Thanks a lot guys, we have spent a lot of time on the car and will continue to spend time on this project until it's complete. With that said, just like any other project, I think I will remain dumpping money until.....I sell the baby.
