As per the price it took 16k for the total without HID's !!

1) Where did you order the lights from?
2) Do you need to make any mods to the electricals, such as add relays etc... or does it fit in just like the normal headlights?
3) Detailed procedure of the DIY project
4) Total cost of the entire project

Awesome install, hope its focused to save other road users inconvenience

Would certainly post it as soon as i meet him !!

Do you see a significant difference between the original halogens & the new HIDs in terms of improvement in visibility ?

There were a lot of posts in the HID thread (Swift Aftermarket Projector Headlamps : Reviews needed) regarding poor visibility in rain, are you having the same issue too ?

I think your question is answered below reply

But some say that with 6000k in the stock assembly visibility in rains is also there. Not sure about that.

Yuppp you are right for this !!
