I got: some pots, pans, cook wear and what not, couple pairs of Levis, some Old Navy V-necks, some H&M button downs, 6" buffer, Volvo polo, Volvo bag chair, some blu rays, a couple ps3 games, a couple other random stuff. But best of all; a triple gauge pod, IPD plug wires, and poly mount, but I think I'm going to return the plug wires and poly mount and get the intake.

1. From my parents and my one aunt and uncle I got an Xbox360 Elite. Which I got weeks ago before Christmas.
**My 4 year old Xbox360 crapped out on me. So I needed a new one**

2. From my other uncle I got Inglorious Bastards on Blu-ray disc.

3. Then I just got kind of gag gifts, just something to open on Xmas Day. Long underwear, which I needed actually for hunting camp. Various kinds of nuts, something to snack on & a soap brush for dishes.

It was a nice and easy Christmas. Like always. Now for the good stuff...

****I purchased for myself this year a Springfield Armory XDm9 (9mm) semi auto handgun, two extra 19+1 mags, Holster, Pistol rug, Remington padded rifle w/scope case for my .22cal rifle. Tons of ammo for my .22 and 9mm and some 20 gauge shells for my Benelli Nova 20 gauge shotgun.****

Nice! I can't wait to get HIDs.


And now my Dad's buying my mount and the wires are going back to get a PCV system. Unless anyone wants them? IPD plug wires? $88?

Nice. I'm gonna get the headlight/HID combo. I think it's like 280 for the pair, big money.

Haha, I know you are. I'll be referring back to your thread when I get them. I'm just going to do an HID low beam conversion, I'm not going to be swapping projectors or anything like you did.

Haha, you might want to. Those projectors are pretty shotty. And get 4300K or 5000K. I had 6000K and it was way too blue. Too much blue for my liking. hah

I would probably go with 43, and they may not be as good as the ones you put in, but I'm gonna guess they're better than stock.

Totally. I hope you like it! I just found that the light is too far foreward in comparison to OEM projectors.
