I swapped my 11's for 13-14's and I wonder why i didnt do it sooner. Ok, cost aside lol.

The 13-14 housings are EXTREMELY robust, much more so than the 10-12s. I used an adapter harness made by 5.0 Motorsport ( find them on facebook) as the 13-14 is not a direct plug and play to the 10-12s harnesses.

Same bulbs and ballasts though if you have HID.
