looks good! i wish my chromiums matched my xenons as well as that pic shows. the chromiums are much more "blueish" than my xenons.

i just recently installed mine, and i found out they turn off when i push the gas pedal.......the rest of the time they are on.

did i tap into the wrong wire?

Are your rings evenly lit?

I installed mine over the weekend and three out of four are about same brightness, but the fourth one is really bright (much brighter than the rest). I didn't use the supplied relay/wires. I tapped into parking light wires (one on each side).

Umnitza, do you think parking light wires doesn't supply enough voltage to the ballast? Do you happen to know (or guess) why they are not equal in brightness? By the way brightest one (passenger side low beam) looks like the second pic you posted, and rest of them looks like the first pic. I have Chromiums, by the way.

They should be of all equal brightness, drive the car around, they should all be the same.

Chromiums come in 6000K. If you currently have 4300K, they won't match except at a distance.

This customer wanted 6K all the way around, that's why they match exactly. HID fogs, HID low beams, and Predator Chromium.

Are you saying they need a "break-in"? If that's the case, I think I drove total of 2 hours after the installation, so I definitely need to drive more. I'll see if the brightness of the three rings improve or not.

What pictures should I send to you? Should I send the picture of setup or just the ring part?
