  1. I would think it would be the person who set up this forum
  2. This is from a website that sells the HID kits you bought, this was taken from Xenonking.com FAQ. (5) Are these HID light systems street legal? NO XENON HID conversion kit available from any source is DOT approved if installed outside of the factory. Moreover, in the U.S, this is not street legal for use on public roads. As a result, we officially endorse the kit for exhibition and off-road use and will only sell the kit to be used for these purposes. We are not responsible for buyers who violate the terms of sale while in which they will assume all responsibilities for any unauthorized or unintended use other than exhibition or off-road use. From my research is has to do with the headlight assembly design. HID systems reflectors are set up different than halogen. You can buy them, but can still get a ticket for using them on any street. I guess it depends on the police officer. I just want people to be informed as I wanted to purchase HID for my edge until I did more research on it. Chad
  3. Scott, I have had my edge about 1.5 months now and love it. I drive 25 miles to work one way and had moved from a Ford 500. I get a little worse MPG than the 500, but on average for mostly city and some highway I average 19mpg. The conversion would be about 12l/100km. This is mostly conservative driving, with the occasional lead foot. I have not had a chance yet to drive a long distance on the highway, ore than 40 miles. I can tell you that the Edge is a fun car to drive and I am happy I switched from the 500 and I really liked my 500. Chad
  4. One thing to keep in mind is these kits are not street legal. They are sold for off-road or show use only.
  5. Bob, It will tell you in the owners manual what bulbs you need for replacement bulbs. I know on the Edge, the low beams and fogs are H11. The high beams are 9005. Definately look in your owners manual as it will tell you what series of bulbs you need. Another good company to look into is Hoen USA, that is where I purchased my bulbs from. I will see if I can get pictures up tonight.
  6. I did a lot of research before I bought new fog lights for my Edge, here is a interesting article too read before you buy new lights. Fog Lights & More Fog Light
