too bad that one of the clear corners was a defect, and the side markers were pre-facelift

but the headlights and the LED tail lights were correct!

can't wait to throw them in tomorrow.

I can't install the LED tail lights because I have to get new wires because both of them fried.......O well. Can't wait to install the P46s :alright

Congrats and good luck with the install. I've got to replace my side marker lights (previous owner put in clears, but moisture and condensation have gotten inside). Also looking to get new black/silver roundel set and maybe a blackout kidney set. I'm going to try to install my Dice kit this weekend (if I have time) and I've got aluminum pedals and guage rings coming in from CA at some point next week. Still looking for a set of angel eyes, but I haven't decided yet...

Fun hobby to throw money at, huh?

P46 xenon kit. 6000k Lights w/6000K Angel Eyes

monkey your just not having any luck with your mods are you

I really am not. Ive waited 10 days to get this, thinking this weekend ill install the clear corners and xenon kit. I knew that the LED weren't going in until the wiring was fixed........Which hopefully will be by next weekend..........

but now i can only install the Xenon, but w/e. At least I have something....

Grats on the purchase! I remember when I got clears and HIDs for the xi. They completely changed the look of the car, way cleaner IMO.

Oh i forgot to tell yea. When yea put in the Harnass for the angel eyes you will see the control box for your AWD like mine. It still fits in their real nice. Just put the harnass on the bolt like in your instuctions and Run the ground to the Ground nut in the same area. I ran mine right over the AWD control, because that doesnt move or get hot all. No harm no foul.

when you go to run the positive wire. Notch the plastic piece on the metal frame of that area and place the wire under the gasket. Works fine there.

If you wired it to your ECU you can just turn on your parking lights and they'll turn on.

O know. Well, i have to get my eyes and go to position 2, with parking lights on. Then they will turn on......The low beams that is..

Amy angel Eyes arn't wired yet

Wire in the remote activation to your interior lights then. That way when your door is open or you unlock your car or turn on your dome lights, only the DDEs light up.

Possibly, if you know which wire to tap. I ran mine into the passenger-side footwell light.
