A few more installed today:

Red LED trunk lights

Installed Red Trunk lights in the trunk.
Wired it up with a 3 position rocker switch so I can switch between the stock light, the Red LEDs or keep them both off.





Switch Mounted








Beatrush Rear Tower Brace





Cant wait till I can drive it!!

No, the housings are xenon housings. Not sure where you coming up with them being meant for a halogen bulb.

The OLM kit uses a motorcycle bi-xenon housings.

As you can tell the cut off is very sharp.


Only so many direction a critter can come from without being lit up...I hope they live by the mantra "stay away from the light".
Do you have like a straight up forest across the street from your house?! That looks so sketch to me.

& are the mailboxes across the street from the houses too?

Haha. Yes, I have a small forested valley across the street from me that isn't a developed area. There are several neighborhood developments that surround it. Yes, the mailbox is across the street.

Nothing sketch at all about my house and neighborhood. The city area I live in is one of the best in the greater Columbus area.

When I moved to The Big Island, I had to get all the tint removed to pass vehicle inspection. $100 I'll never see again.

50 bucks or in Houston. Is it illegal to have tint out there? Or just to dark?

50 bucks? Everything is more expensive here. As far as the tinting and legality, you'll love this: All the windows have to MATCH. My rear windows (Who ever uses them?) and backlight were darker. Oh well, when in Rome..... or Kona....

That's absurd. How are the able to verify the rear window? I thought the device was suppose to be able to send light from Point A and receive light at Point B then determine the dilution percentage from the tint. The devices I know of are set widths.
