Nice, sounds awesome

Thanks fellas.

Don't be hesitant to get a harness from ottobody.....they are great! And the install was CAKE, all you need are a few tools.....and basic mechanical ability. I believe the only thing you need that is sort of out of the normal is a torx T20, to remove the headlight bolts once the bumper cover is off. Other than that, I believe a 7mm allen to adjust the HID's.

Super easy install.....

The kit is $1,279.33 shipped from GMPartsDirect, which is much cheaper than the individual prices.

Glad I got the RS package.

Ottobody is aware of this issue, call them and they will send you what you need to correct the problem

Since you wired it so your parking lights come on with ur halo's, are you able to turn your fog lights on with it as well?

Have you gotten this fixed? I had the same issue, and the only thing I needed to do was flip the diodes in the fuse holder on his harness's. I believe he told me some of the diodes were going bad for some folks....he was trying to get that resolved.

All of my lights work just like normal.

I believe I answered all of my PM's......some of you all had a bunch of questions. Feel free to PM me back if there are any more questions about this. I am really happy overall.

PCOLASHAN · 02-14-2011, 02:02 PM

I flipped the diode, but it starting melting them. I currently waiting on a fix, also had issues with cables coming loose out of my Ottobody harness plugs. Right now I have no headlights, so the car sits till I get new harnesses. Thanks for all the help!!!
