Usually take about 100 to 500 hours, but the color shift is only like 250K kelvin, so dont expect a big difference. It is a very gradual change and unless you paid close attention to it, you might not notice at all.

Kind of lost this thread....lol
Im wanting to throw me some HID fogs in now to go with my HID's I have now! Im guessing to go with the same color as I have now in the headlights? 4300K or should I go one step up to to the 5K. I cant believe they make a H3 in HID--such a small bulb but Im guessing its just as good as the bigger bulbs, plus the light output of both Headlights and Fogs should really look nice.
So for those out there with HID headlights do you also have the HID foglights installed? How do you like them.......

I have to ask this, how many member of GX have truly done an upgrade with HID Xenon with the ballast, and how many have done the projector lens upgrade. You can have the best HIDs but all halogen projectors do not have the ability to put decisively give the best results when it comes to cut and color output. The snap below is done with a TSX lens Bi- Xenon with Infiniti FX35 Matsu****a Ballast ignitors. The TSX lens costs around 250/-$ a set.

Hi Booyah,
One way or another the light output will not look identical as your low beams are projectors and your fogs are reflectors. I personally would say go with a 4300k HID kit to get the best match as the 5k may come out a little too bluish.
I personally am a fan of 3k yellow in the fogs though =)

it will be crisp except for the 'squirrel cage' which illuminates overhead signs. I've had mine in for well over a year now and am thrilled. No difference between the output form the XD kit in my GX vs the OEM HIDs in my GS... well that's not true... I actually like the output I get from my GX better

I also have the HIDS in my GX and LOOOOOVE them! Now the cutoff you will get from the GX will not be quite like the RX but--it will be CLOSE, I mean really close, it has great lines--you will love them. The light pattern is really great and makes a world of difference at night and I also get No-one flashing me at night![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
