Don't ruin your stock harness because it's an aftermarket set up, trust me you will be disappointed and will spend a lot more money in the long run when you burn up that harness.

I'll actually listen to u. U seem nicer than the other guy lol.

Ha these guys mean well. They weren't too nice to me at first but there is alot of truth to what they say. If you want a better look, I recommend going with jw motoring, the d2 6000k bulb replacement is from what I understand the best replacement bulb for our set up. Its just as bright and gives it a nice ice blue shade. Check out this video. https://youtu.be/AJ8A7nmyvLo

side question. I saw your signature and its got me curious. Did the K&N drop ins with the hps hoses help at all with the acceleration lag?

Yes they did, I suggest them if your not looking to spend alot on your intake. You can feel really good gains on mid to high rpm's. I actually just changed out my intake, I'm doing a custom set up. So I have an extra pair of k&n drop ins if you need them. Only used for like 2 months

Yes, you are correct, while those are not cheap, they are the best bulbs out there.
