Got the driver side headlight on today, then had to take it off… because the marker bulb from the original headlight was burnt out and forgot about it. I am going to get LED’s to replace it at work on Saturday.
Also got the chrome bulbs in the mail today, and they make it 100x better.
Put the headlights in all the way, and they don’t line right up. Going to have to shave some of the base to make it 100% dead on, but they look amazing from straight on, but not so much from the sides.
Another problem I ran into was that on the driver side headlights, the 3 accent LED’s weren’t working. Honestly, I am not too fond of them, so not sure I am going to try to fix it. Maybe I’ll configure white ones to work in their one day.
And yes, I need to fix my license plate, save your keystrokes.
Pics as promised ( and I just noticed, the flash makes the headlights look much shinier then they really are)…

Kool, yours didn't have that funky pattern. They must have gotten it fixed.

Alligned bumper and headlights better. Hooked up a new switch for my fog lights for when I installed them, and hooked up halo's for headlights to another switch, ready to be wired to fog light halo's too.. Fixed the LED problem, and they work, so I'll keep em. Lined the headlights better after doing some cutting. Here's some new some what outside day time pics... Halo's are on in last 2 pics..

Well on Turkey day my bro scrapped this filing cabinet, and I made brackets out of the corner peices for these lights which bolted right up, with no barely any drilling, just had to make the holes bigger for the bolts I bought.

I drilled the holes on the bumper support, and test fit and works perfectly.

Just need to finish painting the brackets I made, and bolt them up and wire up.

Want to get a new air dam too, and may get one and have it painted when I have the doors finished.

Well today, I put on my new air dam I picked up, so now there is no more zip ties. Also, realligned my bumper, yet again, but I took it all the way off, and started from point zero, and got it better. Still needs a little tweeking on left side, just one washer away. Then hooked up my fog light on my driver side.

Also realized that I hit 75k on it my last time driving it :(
