Hello All,
Let me start by saying that YES, I did read through all 11 pages, wish niner's pictures were still up. I wanted to just summarize and have someone tell me I am right before I go an dump the $100 on this. After 4 months with the car, these headlights are driving me nuts... I thought about the chinese crap, but don't fill like spending 600+...
First of all, both options are the same... Just that one has plastic parts and the other has metal parts and comes with a lifetime warranty. Correct? Other than that the install is the same. You can either wire outside the assembly and modify the factory harness or inside and just tap into those two black cables.
This is where I have the questions... I read that everyone hates the t-taps, because of salt and everything else, but they will be INSIDE that rubber seal, I know you are putting a slit in the seal for the wiring, but is the worry that big. Also, I rather not unmount the housing to solder if the t-taps are that bad plus I SUCK AT SOLDERING. Couldn't I just splice the wires and wrap then in heat shrink wrapping, which is waterproof, is there enough room in there for a splicing tool?
I think the XS would be better, but more money... Anyone else? Is it really worth the extra $90?
