  1. I put pictures in this thread, I'd have to look at my wiring again to know for sure, I jsut did some trial an error until it worked haha. One thing to key in on is that the ballasts actually have a little +/- sign, and the plug that connects need to line up with the correct +/-. Just make sure the black cable is matched with the (-). Its hard to see at first but you'll get it. By blue and black wires I'm assuming you mean the bare wires? Those you need to plug into the adapter caps (best description I can give) that come in the kit. They are in a bag, just push the blue/black wires into the adapter. I'll try and take more pictures tonight. http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?/topic/8343-hids-installed-in-2011-limited/page__pid__66708#entry66708
  2. I have a 2011 SEL w/ sync, no NAV, and it came with a back up camera.....there are aftermarket ones, someone will chime in.
  3. Mine do as well, I got the 6000k, i had 8000k on my Fusion and it was too blue/purple. Really terrible in first/last light of the day.
  4. ]I didn't want to take out a bunch of stuff in the engine compartment to conceal my ballasts so I just mounted them in an easy location. All wires are out of the way of moving parts, nothing bounces, everything works perfect. Installed a retrosolutions kit, took about 40 min b/c the stock light broke off in the housing!! PITA!!
  5. Yet, holes are cut out for the reverse lights haha, go like the other guy did. Dismantle everything and paint the inside, thats dedication and true customization.
  6. It is from Big Bang Theory - Bazinga - I figure the car is too damn smart for its own good, just like Sheldon. I keep wondering if I am seeing you. - Name is Carrie by the way.

  7. I used the 55W 6000k kit from retro solutions, everything fit fine, just a little difficult at times to figure out the wiring, not really electrically savvy. All worked out though.
  8. Update: Got everything wired in and drove in this morning to work, everything is done, I just need to drill holes in the back of the bulb housing caps to flush the rubber gromit in. Range of light looks good, haven't seen them in the actual dark yet, just dusk. I ended up braking the damn bulb off the factory light and it fell into the bulb housing...... :angry: NIGHTMARE to get out!!! Took 45 mins to get the stupid thing out. Found easy places to mount the ballasts (post pics later today), they're just under the hood but away from all moving parts etc. The lights look great, and seem to be showing a good pattern. Like I said it needs to be dark to tell for sure.
  9. Ugh....its all mounted and in....I just need to drill out the back of the bulb housing caps.....hopefully it doesn't rain tomorrow. Don't have any bits at home to drill the holes.
  10. I'm halfway through my HID install and the stupid driver side bulb won't come out! Help! I got the harness off while it was still connected to the bulb....no matter what way I turn the bulb it won't give!
  11. Saw you driving yesterday, I like the color of your edge. Whats the plate meant...?

  12. ON THE......OVR THE..... CLZ 2 (Close too).....RDN THE.......list goes on.
  13. Got my hitch installed yesterday, ran $500 from an aftermarket source, not cutting of the bumper needed, and still sits high enough off the ground. My edge didn't have a plug n play for the wiring harness so they had to hard wire it. All in all I'm happy, post pics later.
  14. Just gave mine a good washing a a quick blast with the quick detailer, looks freakin' awesome, post pics later. Does smell good too!
