Rotary Rasp is another one you may ask info from. He's changed a lot of his lights, has even constructed HID ballast for his foglights.

You can find him in the LAX meet thread.

Cesar, this is a document I made myself a while back when I was upgrading lights. let me know if I missed something. I'll make the one's that I baught bold.
the turn signals are Chrome so i dont have that orange "glow" and the rest are a hyper white.

Directions from San Bernardino are the following:

Take the 30W, merge onto the 215N, then merge onto the 15S, and then proceed to 210W, from there exit Carnelian.

After you exit, make a right onto carnelian, and then make another IMMIDIATE right into the parks entrance.

below is a map of the exit route:
we'll be meeting at the yellow dot on the map.

One last thing for the bulbs, (this kind-of bothered me) but if you are replaceing a standard bulb with a led blub your light will blink faster because the new bulb uses less power. correct me if i am wrong...keith?
