The RetroFitSource appears to have some HID options for '15-'17 Colorado's. No specific fitments on '18s doe. :notsure:

Dat's my initial thoughts too. Initial research indicates some issues, so I'll read a bit more on them.

What kind of issues?
A little flickering when people weren't using the correct harness and then a few people I read about had polarity issues.
Even with the morimoto kits, people were having to go through a ballast/igniter or two before they got ones that lasted.

Such bullshit.

He needs to call a lawyer and get the MM warranty act involved based on the dealership's claim that his wiring affected the airbags. That's bullshit.
Depends how he ran the wires. If it's the kit I bought (made by Warn), the only interaction with the factory wiring is a wire coming off the battery on the positive and negative sides. Everything else is standalone including a safety solenoid to avoid accidental shorts and whatnot.

But, modding a vehicle under factory warranty always gives an out. It's a risk you need to be willing to take if doing so.

I wanna put my new black bowties on! Front install doesn't look too bad. Rear will be a little time consuming.

Might have to wait until the weekend.

Front is simple.

Rear will take a bit of clean up after you get the old one off.

I am going to remove all my Colorado emblems and might pull the rear black bow tie to clean it up like I did on the 1LE.... just run the single front Bow Tie.
