Haven't seen a 2013 done up with HIDs, so I thought I'd share the pictures as I go. Low beams will be done tomorrow and LEDs will be done whenever they arrive.
First, the kits are 55w 4500k from DDM. Fogs are H11, lows H7. In case anyone is wondering about the 55w bulbs in the fogs, I can tell you they run substantially cooler than the halogens they replaced. I did the left side first, kept them on for about 20 minutes, and touched my hand to the lens. The halogen side was quite a bit hotter than the HID side.
I was going to do a more comprehensive before/after photo shoot with the stock fogs at night, but once I got over to my buddy's place and we started to dive into it, I decided the fogs were getting done right then and there.
Does anyone know if the dealer can program the fogs to stay on with the high beams? I slipped a tech at our Chrysler dealership a 50 to enable this on my 300. Would be willing to do again.
I will say this, my Galaxy S3 doesn't do the standard low beams justice. I actually think the halogens are pretty good, but there's always room for improvement!
The HIDs look better in person too. The beam spread on the road is ultra wide which is great.
Anyway, here we go without anymore stalling!
You can see the headlights cutting through the smoke from all the fires in the area.
Anyway, I love the 55w 4500k kit! Very white in appearance, none of that ricer blue hue at all, and the increased light output is phenomenal.
