Oh I forgot to mention, I'm sure that if you look at all thoose HID conversion kits out there they are not D.O.T. approved.I did find online aux driving lights that are D.O.T. approved which are very cool looking

the upgraded harnesses also use a relay bulit into them, to allow the full 14 volts to reach the lamps, rather than the 12 volts that the stock wires allow. and, they also give you the ability to keep the low beam filament on while the high beam is on.

the 2 features added together really do make quite a difference.
