first let me start by saying, i know that this is not a lot of people's personal preference, and well i don't really care about making this car look anything even resembling show quality. since i will be driving this car in rallyx, driving it off road, and running the canyons at night, these lights will come in rather handy.

basically i had these lights that i bought for my last car, but never had the chance to install them. i went and got some materials from home depot for the light bar, cut them to length, and got all the necessary wiring and connectors. i had a guy at work weld the steel together for the bars and then this weekend i installed everything this weekend. still have some things to finish up tonight, but its about 85-90% done. i wired everything so that i can run my low beams, high beams, and all four fog lights at the same time. all i know is that the people in the house at the end of the street must have hated me last night cause them lights was bright as hell. oh, and i got two other little foglights that are sitting around that i'll install later in the spots where stock fog lights would go.

Hella. Nice!!!!!! I wanted Hella bulbs all around in my car, but I bought some of Griffgirl's HID's. Props to good taste in lighting! Just don't wreck your car in those canyons.

sad thing is that my last car was totaled driving in regular socal traffic with morons. i drove the canyons for 2 years and the only thing that i damaged was my rear bumper, but thats what gave the car some character and how everyone in the srt4 community knew me. i always found that ironic how i drove the canyons, rallyx'ed the car, hell i even drove through yellowstone national park in 3" of snow on summer tires only to loose a car in traffic on a clear day. goes to show you that you're more likely to get in an accident driving around normally than driving in the canyons.


i readjusted the lights tonight and changed the arangement. so far i like it, but i'll have to actually take it for a real test in the mountains. i really also want to get another set of the hid look bulbs, i like them much better than the regular white/yellow lights that came with the hella lights.
