Headlight questions

Quick question. If i get the eagle eye headlight what like will come with it? I know the ring will be white but does it also come with hid like with kit too or no?

Also i would like my fogs to match in color at least any ideas there?

Also since how exactly does the halos work are they just on when the headlight are on or are they daytime runners how does it work if i just plug it in and go?

It's the whole housing. Plug and play. You can get them with or without HIDs. Though the HIDs cost more obviously. If you want your fogs to match the halos then I'd suggest AAC's P13W bulbs.

If you get eagle eyes by an h9 hid kit and h13 relay separately so you don't get a cheap flickering eBay kit

How much do the eagle eye headlights run? How bad is the installation?

usually around $350 - it's pretty straight forward, just some bolts.

Non-RS have fogs. RS package uses the fogs as drls instead. The major differences are that the non RS has headlight drls and has control over when the fogs are on. RS the fogs are drls and, stock, the fogs aren't on with the headlights ever.

Pretty much. Except, that the RS does not have fog lights at all.

I think you meant the non-RS has no fog lights.

RS: HID headlights with halos & P13W DRLs

non-RS: halogen headlights and 5202 fog lights
