how was the installation process? And how is the visibility? I have the halogens on the 05 so is it going to be brighter?

the install would be easy if you didnt have to drop the front bumper and take the whole headlight out. just make sure that the wires are lined up right. positive to positive neg to neg. with the blinglights kit the harness from the ballast to the headlight HOUSING (not the bulb itself) is backwards so that why you have to check the wires. hope this helps

absolutely yes!! Blinglights.com and i think a few other vendors out there sell replacement HID bulbs as well in whatever color temp you want for people whose cars already came with factory HID's

is this a basically plug and play installation besides taking off the front bumper and headlights (which is easy in my opinion)?

Looks nice!

Did you have to spend a lot of time leveling the headlights? Doesn't the OEM HIDs come with a headlight leveling adjustment? How do you adjust them if you install the aftermarket HID system?

That system is basically so ur cutoff doesn't go beyond the the head of the drivers in front of you, it levels the projectors according to the road. For non auto leveling, we can not level them automatically, we can aim them but thats about it, that is why HID kids are specifyed as off road use only (street illegal), you blind other drivers casue your lights don't auto level
