For what it's worth, here are my 55w 6000k's in headlights vs 35w 4500k's in fogs. The photo is fairly accurate. And you're right, they are waaay too close in color.

Nope! That's one of main reasons I went with 35w with the fogs. The 55w heads and 35w fogs fire right up simultaneously. I make sure I turn the car on first though just to be safe.

I just walked back in the house from trying out a set of solid exhaust hanger removal pliers. The hangers made the pliers ____ing bend like they were made of ____ing plastic. It has become clear to me that in order to remove the TS hangers, I'm going to have to saw the mother____ers off and purchase new ones when I put my TRD on. Can you tell how ____ing frustrated I am????

Maaaan yeah sorry to be the bearer of bad news. There is no way they are coming off. I am returning mine to Amazon. They pay for return shipping

Yea I tried for 45 mins to get 1 hanger off today, and came to the conclusion that there's no _____ing way they're coming off without being cut. I'm surprised TS hasn't came out with a tool or something to remove them!

Which pliers did you use to try to remove the TS exhaust hangers? I didn't have any issue minus being a pain to remove, it takes muscle for sure. I went to Advance Auto and got the Lisle exhaust hanger removal tool, it's special order they'd have to look in a catalog.
