At first I'm going to just use stock halogen bulbs to make sure everything is okay. Then I'll decide between HID or LED, but below are what I'm thinking about getting.

I think they are ZKW

For the HID kit, am I going to need adapter cables on the drop down menu? It says 'These are needed on some D2R/S conversions when the factory power'

They already had a ginuea pig. Check their Instagram. They had a test fit around beginning of June to confirm the fitment and quality. This is their 2nd order.

Good question, but I'm not sure what that adapter is for. I'll look into other HID options.

I believe these uses h7 bulbs. So h7 HIDs or h7 LEDs pick your poison. I'm getting h7 HIDs but going to use stock halogens first to see how the headlights hold up.

I just received a shipping confirmation email for the order that I placed this morning. USR was quick to respond to all of my questions, too.

Monte03carlo - I owe you a beer sir. Thanks for the quick response. Group buy discount for me was over $85. Add in the Twitter follow discount and they came to $512 and change shipped to Seattle.

Fixes the one thing I really did not like about my car. Totally jazzed.
