I bought some holders of TPS and failed miserably. Will give it another shot soon.

Yup for the hid kit installation.

The problem I had was I did butcher them to much asswell as I couldn't work out how to make the connection for the 2 type spade connected which were on the xenon bulb. (if that makes sense) so on the holder there are 2 connections which touch the inside of the headlight in order for the bulb to work. I wasn't to sure how to wire up the xenon bulb to it.

Hope that makes sense and hopefully someone could shed some light and explain how I could do it or a possible write up will be more then appreciated :)

Thanks

Also I have DRL (Mercedes type) on my caddy which is a must have

Lets see the DRL.. Got a pic?

I didnt use the connectors on the twist in holder at all. I connected direct to the spade terminals on the side (bit of a pain to see and get to.)

Loving the look of the van!

If you've got a tank in there you must be carrying a fair bit of weight. How do the coilovers handle this? Do you get any rubbing with weight in now is lowered?

Good work.
