I really like those, driving lights. What are they and how did you mount them? Thanks.

Its just that you see most people spend $40 on pep Boys $hit and they have a crappy 4 foot beam pattern.

I feel the same about those cheap lights, Ive always had good luck with hella, had 3 rally 4000's on my pre-runner, 2 pencil beams and 1 cornering beam in the center it had total coverage in the desert at night. I could turn off the headlights and honestly couldnt see a change since the other lights were so bright. The cornering beam was great because it was so wide of a blanket of light.
I have always wanted to run the 90mm headlights in place of foglights, these would definitely light up the road better than that junk pep boys has. maybe when I get an aftermarket bumper with holes in it I'll mount a pair. Probably wouldnt actually work well in the fog but would help any other time.

Bat mounted them in the bottom corners of the grill area. They were PIAA's if I am not mistaken.

I use stock Navi. Rear view is auto switched when car is placed in reverse. Front Camera switches by a toggle mounted under dash.

You can check out some of the specs as well as other mods on my site....

sorry to wake a dead thread, but does anyone know of any lights that would work in the reflector slots on the front bumper? I think that would be a good place for some vertical super bright LED's
