Had a brain fart at Pep Boys and bought a couple led strips. I want to increas my visibility. Car is driven mostly daytime.
After playing with a few options I decided to put them in the horn grills. Luckily they squeeze in perfectly between the vanes and can be clipped every 3rd light. Powered with an inline fuse and to the ignition side of the fuse box so they go on with the key. bot the 12" and trimmed 3 lights. They are a lot brighter in person. Camera battery was running down but managed a few pics. I'm changing the bulbs in my H4s to match. Night pics soon I hope. |

I like 'em more here than on an Audi. Pretty hip.
2 points- Fogs on without HLs will get you a ticket here in my little town. Even as "markers". BTDT. That left HL cover can be re-aligned. Loosen up the three allen head bolts on the pivot part toward the inside of the trunk. Take out the "eyebrow" in front of the light assembly- it just is held by rubber bumps protruding into holes. Align the headlight in closed position to try to follow hood surface, tighten down. You may have to fiddle with the other (fender) side pivot, or loosen and move the motor just a little. More visibility is alwaysa a good thing (unless you are Charlie Sheen, I guess). |
