I just got an 2000 LS V8 that's 97k miles and I'm loving it even if its 11.7mpg =S

I wanna make a few mods but don't know the exact info that i need... i would like to make the interior lights white but don't know the size of the bulbs or how to change the top ones... i just finished changing a whole new set of coils since the Lincoln Company ripped me off with only 2 coils

Also i would like to know a good powerful HID kits for the fogs and highs to make them 6000k (white), plus I'm thinking bout getting some chrome paint and weather pain protection to paint the grill of the LS and make it look chrome instead of getting a whole new grill.... also i would like to know where i can get a cheap K&N intake

Any other suggestions are welcome since i still don't have enough funds to deal with the audio of the car and Im not so sure the steps to open up the headlights since they are very foggy by the inside
 
Wow.. You got a bunch of questions there..

A K&N is a no go.. They don't make one for a 2000.. Just 03 +
Most of the people here color match the grille instead of the chrome..
You need to bake the headlights if you have the gray sealant..
I wouldn't put HIDs in the highs. I would put the xenon lights in the highs and HIDs in the fogs and lows.. DDM tuning is a good brand that most here trust.. Or eBay..
I'm not sure on the interior lights.. You can go to Sylvania.com and cross-reference them there..

I think that about answers all of your questions..

Expensive.............http://www.lskoncepts.com/store/xetronic-digital-generation-2-hid-xenon-conversion-kit-p-136.php


Cheap but not bad kit.........http://www.ddmtuning.com/index.php?p=product&id=101&parent=85

If your headlight have the gray sealant than you can stick them in the oven for a few minutes to loosen the sealant and pull apart. If you have black sealant, you'll have to cut them open.
 
Damn dude did you forget to take your medicine? j/k but I think they pretty much answered your questions. Intake wise I have a KKM intake from lskoncepts. I would recommend the DDM hids. Lifetime warranty. That does seem like a very low mpg. I get 16.7 doing 90% city driving with 20" wheels and a sub in the trunk. Might want to change your fuel filter too.
