[bluemagic]

these are the things i've done so far i swaped my corner lights, taillights, both black i also have halo foglights

you can do HID's all the way around for about 300 bucks. Also, go with the flowmaster 70's, ive heard the 44's are REALY loud.. they are what im upgrading too.

 

[bluemagic]

do you have pics of your explorer

Much less than $300...I'm running DDM Motorsports 6000k's in my headlights and the 3000k's in my fogs, they sell them for about $50 per kit, so a little over $100 when you factor in the shipping. They are all digital HID module's, very small and light, and DDM's have a good reputation. I heard about them on this board from others who use their kits, been using mine for a year and I drive with them on 24/7 and they have given me no issues.

now did you need anything else beside's the kit

For the HID's from DDM? Nope...it's complete plug n' play. Pretty much the best deal going around for a quality HID kit. You can choose your kelvin (K) amount easily, there's a color spectrum with a full explanation of the colors, so you can decide what you want. I got the 6000k's which have an definite blue tint to them, but are pretty close to the natural look of HID's that come in BMW's etc...so they look "stock" in a sense. I went with the 3000k's in the fog lights because they are very yellow, and they are a wonderful combination with the blue headlights, and provide an awesome array for night time driving.

i have halo foglights so i'll only be looking for the hid's for the headlights are they easy to install i've never done it

Yes, they are Plug N' Play (meaning no modifications to install). Here is a picture of what mine look like turned on. 6000k heads, and 3000k fogs:

 

[bluemagic]

wow those look great

 

[MillerTimeX17]

so you can see a difference heres mine with 8000k. They are pretty cool if you like the blue tint to them but that just wasnt for me so i swapped out bulbs for 6000k's like thepotroast has.

 

[zerodevil]

mine are 6000k's...but mine are also 55w's rather than 30w's... i like to say my lights are so bright they melt the paint off of import cars.
