Ok, what it is on H11 bulbs are "To original halogen lamp connector socket." I'm not sure what this means at all....

Lmao, it's the wiring relay harness... Apparently, you don't NEED them, but what do you guys think?

It sounds like these are the two wires that should go to the lamp harness that is on your car. Most kits come with a wire harness where you just plug that harness to where the original OEM bulb plugged into. Otherwise, some older/cheaper HID kits came with exposed relay wiring...if you are 100% sure that you have a connection from your car to the kit and the light work when you fire them up then, no, you don't need the exposed wires.

I just put the HID fogs in and I drive my Tahoe excessively since it is my work car...I agree with whoever said the stock lights are too weak....tried them with fog a few weeks ago and had to pull over to make sure they were even working. I converted the fogs to HID yesterday...had some fog this morning before dawn and the HID kit in the fogs did a great job...now the bad news, I think the HID bulbs will fry the OEM fog lense and housing....I know if already happened ton77nxc and I am trying to avoid this so I have limited the fog lights with HID to 5 minutes and hope to find a solution. Otherwise, I will be forced to put the crappy stock bulbs back in

I was thinking about pulling out the lense.. It will be EXTREMELY bright tho then ... but what the hell, might as well try it. I have a 07 Silverado 1500 ext cab... i want to get some HID fog lights as well, but you're right about melting them, I'm nervous about that too!

no problem at all 1hot650r. I changed the configurations in my settings so that he security lights didn't come on when I pressed unlock as that included the headlights. I also turned off anything that had the headlights flash for unlock or lock, etc. As far as the auto lights, it's non-issue.
