new Cayenne owner question

hi everyone,
I am trying to install HID Kit to my 06 Cayenne. Has anyone did this before and can give me some opinion and the process.
I also wanted to change the stock audio(non Bose) and adding the multimedia GPS/ DVD/ iPod to my SUV. I am totally new to this and wanted advice on which brand, experiences that you have


thanks

The hid should be pretty easy. I believe they are H7. For the audio, you can get a double din adaptor on ebay from japan but I think they are expensive. You also have to turn off the most bus and run audio signal wires from the head unit to the amp.

Try searching on this topic, it has been covered before. It involves a lot more than changing the bulb.

No. That is the tradeoff you need to make.

Sorry I don't have experience with any of them so I can't make a recommendation. The ones on Ebay seem cheap enough to take a chance on.

I actually just bought from Apexcone the new 55W HID kit and hopefully it will not yield warning light

I think the hid kits are pretty similar and they are pretty much all from china. Just get something around 5-6k. Anything higher than 6k will make the light too blue or purple and actually doesn't light up the road as good. Hope this helps.
