I know you may think the chrome rear reflector looks wierd. But just wait till they are on the truck, and you'll understand why I left it chrome, instead of black. Hope you like them!

Thanks guys! Can't wait to get them installed! Those 55w HID's in the head and fog lights are definately gonna be a huge improvement upon the stock OEM bulbs.

Fedex man delivered some presents today! HOLY SHIT these are so amazing! Unfortunately I don't have enough time to install them now, as I have gym at 2:00. But when I get off work at midnight... it's on like Donkey Kong!

your driveway is wet... did you just wash your truck for that pic?

[Trupiano]

Lol yeah, we had a bunch of rain an the truck was dirty, so I washed it this morning. Didn't think the lights would be delivered until tonight. Usually fedex comes to my house around 3-4. Nice surprise!

[BAD HABIT]

THEY ARE BRIGHT AS FUCK! :pedobear:

Well, I started working at 12:05 A.M. and just finished now at 3:30 A.M. Lol took some jack'd 3d to stay awake. Shouldn't have taken this long, but I'm tired so blah!



JJ is the shit! Definately the best at what he does! 150% quality product, the best customer service you could ever want, great price and fast as hell shipping! And also... In the words of a great artist:



No exageration, I could not love a human baby, as much as I love these lights!

Good Night Movie-House, I'm going to bed!

Here's a great little guide on the harness install, just in case anyone ever needs it.

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/5615/hidwiringharness.jpg (http://img23.imageshack.us/i/hidwiringharness.jpg/)

Here is how to hook up your wiring harness

Here is what get hooked up to what:

1. Connect to Left Ballast input

2. Connect to Right Ballast input
NOTE: 1 & 2 may be reversed depending on where your battery is and how long the connector cable legs are.

3. Connect to the Positive + side of your battery.

4. Connect to the Negative - side of your battery.
Note: the negative power leg may also be connected to a solid chassis ground.

5. Connect to your car's stock headlight power cable.
Note: This connection can be to either the right or left headlight power connector. The other headlight connector is no longer used and should be covered in electrical tape or other material to protect the connector ends from the environment.

How it works:
The Headlight power connector (5) powers the relay (6) which provides power directly from the battery (3 & 4) through a fuse (7) to the HID ballasts (1 & 2).

Got it?

Trup...you should:

Pull the grille emblem colormatch the back of it red and spray the ram head and edge with black chrome paint...

tint the fogs and the lenses on the mirrors...

Great idea with the Ram Head! I didn't even think of that. Not sure if I know how to do that though. I'll have to look into the paint!

For the fogs, I'm getting the lamin-x tint, and then get the smoke material for the tail's and 3rd brake light. The mirror lenses, that's a badass idea! Thanks man!:pedobear:

[SmokedRam]

It's easy...see here:

[Trupiano]

Ooh I don't know about that ram head now. Here's a pic that someone did... I don't really like it. Not sure yet though...

http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i360/myoung84/IMG_0035.jpg

[SmokedRam]

Yeah, but he didnt back out the ram head...just colormatched the surface behind it...

[Trupiano]

Yeah that's true!

[SmokedRam]

I bet if you get an up close pic of your grille, Dan can photochop it colormatched to get an idea of how it would look

[stratus04]

bro your lights and truck are sick i love itt

[AWE Daniel]

Looking good trup, you going for the red/black theme?

[Trupiano]

Thanks guys! Red and black somewhat, but I don't wanna overdue it!

[4XLGator]

They look great Trup, especially in the sunlight. Did JJ tint them?
