    I am going to make the purchase next week. Just wanted everyone's opinion. Which one does everyone use?

    Do a search. The Morimoto bulbs have the incorrect ground wire for Prius and will result in the output having two shadows in them.

    Get the xenon supply ones.

    Your C looks awesome. Love those taillights. Any chance you can get a wall shot of the HID lights? I would love to see the out put and beam pattern.

    I'm using 35W Xenonsupply for Fogs and 55W DDMtuning for Low Beam.

    I bought 35W Xenonsupply first, put them in Low Beam: bright enough, much better than halogen.

    Then bought the 55W DDMtuning to replace Xenonsupply: WOW and never look back. I put 35W Xenonsupply in the Fogs and they will stay down there.

    I have to pay tax and shipping for both: DDMtuning is only around $50.

    Do you have to replace the H11 bulbs for your foglights or they fit perfectly in the foglights housing? I know the manual list the foglight bulbs as 5202 or H16.

    No need to replace, I'm using H11 bulbs for both fogs and low beams.

    The H11s fit in the H16 slot?

    does the 55w kit get hot in the housing? Has anything melted or burned? Also, can you post a wall shot of the lights? I would like to see the beam and the hotspot created by the 55w kit. And I would love to see the hid fog kit too.

    No, it's not hot, melted or burned: it's the same wattage of the factory halogen bulbs.

    I'm not sure about taking pics: where, how far to the wall, with the engine on or off, ... Also how to take pics of fog kit? The low beams must be switched on to have the fogs.

    and does the H11 plug into the H16 cable from the car? Sorry, I realize now I should have asked these at the same time.

    about 15-20 feet away from a non glossy wall/garage or parked looking at the front of a house. Just to get an idea of how the light is projected out. With fog lights on and off. Just to see how much of a difference having hid fogs make. Thanks in advance for going through the trouble for us, as this is all new to me.

    It will be the same as your pictures on your other thread, not beautiful like 2k1Toaster pics: I want that nice beam too but have no money and time to do it.

    Thanks for the answers, I just wanted to double check. The connectors on the two bulbs don't look very close, that's why I wasn't sure. Guess it's just an optical illusion.

    Xenonsupply, 4300k ordered. Thanks for the help and info.

    Next up, Nokya led fog lamp replacement. Or maybe a 3000k HID kit for the fogs. But aiming might be issue.
