Budget Build Retrofits

[Mjrbrooks]

Probably 6 months? Maybe 7. Again, if I had some fogs to supplement, I probably would've kept them in despite the cutoff annoying me. But, combine all of it together and I went back to the OEM lights with my light bar on when there's no on coming traffic. Oh, I will say I thought the brights were FANTASTIC, but you can't run those all the time, ya know?

I feel you when it comes to having legit fog lights. I love the light bar's intensity! That being said, now knowing they have switchable dual white / amber setting light bars, I immediately want to swap out. Of course, the cheapest 22" one that will swap right in place of the current setup is roughly $80-120. I'll throw that badboy on my bday wishlist.

UPDATE: Within a week, the passenger headlight died. Troubleshooting lead me to believe the ballast went bad. Cut through the silicone I added around the seam, unscrewed it, and boom! Something blew inside, leaked black crap on one side of the ballast (not the black material covering the entire inside of the ballast), and smelled like a strong electrical burn. Not sure what could have happened, but got on the horn with the company. They shipped out a new ballast, no questions asked. Should be here this coming Tuesday.

sorry if this has been covered already but with the two wires that come from the projectors themselves where do they plug into? also when tightening the locking nut you want it to not be able to move correct? or is a little wiggle room okay?

The two wires are the solenoid for the brights. There should be a corresponding jack on your harness for this.

Less wiggle is better. You don't want your headlights wiggling around while you drive.
