thanks guys! Well im in the process of ordering the 6000k Phillips HID stock replacement for my stock bulbs because everything needs to go "a step up!" so i'll be getting the wedge LED's for my side lights and wedge as well...
Thanks about that balast, yup the metal thing came with it and i couldn't fit my drill in there so i attached the bit to the dremel.. it was kinda sketchy but it worked out well
The other balast is ONLY held by the adhesive tape right now :eek: so im kinda woried about that, but thats because there is NO room in that fog light bay WHAT SO EVER it took me a good half hour to get all the wires in and the balast mounted on that side, even had to extend the power wire for that side to route it "pretty" - although that still needs work. So i had to mount the 2nd balast to the urethane body... that really worries me i hope it wont burn it or anything and i obviously cant drill it... so if wose comes to worse i gotta get a new mounting place, but i hope it will be fine....
if you ever open up the driver side fog light look in there... no space at all! its like the Air Conditioning or something..
I'll take night shots as soon as possible, my mom had to go out so i didn't have a chance to keep the GS until night.
Does anyone know how to replace the stock HID bulb? globe? do you twist it or pull it or what..

Turn the grey cover in the direction of the open arrow and then pull it of. Then pull of the inner metal cap by moving up and sliding it down. This exposes the balast connection, rotate it off gently and expose the bulb. There are two metal clamps that you need to remove by squeezing them in and then they will spring off, slide the HID out and you are in business. I talked to the dealer and they were going to charge me 250 bucks to do this... it took me less than 5 min to do this!!

Looks good!
watch for the PIGS!!!
I got a warning for having the 7500k bulbs in the NSX! Luckly the guy I bought the kit from swapped me for the standard HID 4100-4200 bulbs. No more run in with pigs since then.
