Looking to install some rally lights like the ones pictured. What is the usual size of these and how do they mount? Close up mounting pics would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.race-cars.com-12683-1298385947.1.jpg) |

May just be me, but 1 fog and one driving light would look goofy when they were turned on.
The beam of driving lights is very tight, tighter then the headlights (h4 included). When I am driving using mine, even though I can operate the driving lights separate from the head lights I never do it. The DL beams are too focused and sharp and give me no lateral light. They are a great mix with the headlights though, and give me an extra second of warning VS all the deer that live in the hills around me. Zach |

Zach Might be right and with the headlights I have I already have a pretty narrow light pattern. The 500FF fog has a light range of 70 meters or so the brochure says. The website says 30 meters. That might just give me all the lighting I need. |
