I got them for $40.... so ya they are worth it for me... just helps tighten everything up... although with the sways already installed, you might not really notice much... buy them used, or off ebay and then you aren't out a huge amount if you don't like them!

I am planning on getting the set from runningandwrestling for 40...I hope I can get taxes done this weekend and have the money when me and my friends are on the way back from great wolf lodge on the 24th...otherwise I will have to find a time we can both be in manhattan or something

got them installed tonight... now just have to put in the hids and disable the drls...

tw0123 · 03-18-2013, 01:24 AM

only got one side of the hid's working... gotta try a couple more things for the driver side...
also put in 28smd leds in the 194, and 60smd led switchback in the 3157, but they are backwards... stupid Chinese garbage... get what you pay for I guess...

at work the other day... magnaflow muffler and tips, and a dirty ass !!!

well since I have 2 rolls of leds... here is my latest project... there are actually 8 leds, but one went under the lip, so only 7 light up the plate

no more black hood for this ho... gotta love the kijiji free adds!! kid texted me earlier this week asking if I wanted to trade my black hood for his silver one... colour is slightly off, but it looks better than what was on there.. plus there is no rust on this one!!

also put the summer wheels on today

today was a good day

tw0123 · 04-15-2013, 11:53 PM

decided to use up more of the led roll last night... and this is what I came up with

17 led's in the 3rd brake light

after that, on reinstall, I decided to wire up the inner tails as well

tw0123 · 11-30-2013, 12:32 AM

figured I would update this a bit...
put the led rolls to more use again... this time in the custom tails... still working on them, but here are some samples

first took my dremel and pulled them apart

then got my design laid out...

starting soldering... this will be the running lights, once I figure out which wire controls which...

and the inner portion will be the brake light...

day shot, no running lights

night shot with running light

still cleaning up the wiring and installing everything, then have to seal them all up and wire them in the car

slow process but its coming... hard working on 2 cars and having the restaurant and family!!

Those wheels look oddly familiar....

tw0123 · 11-30-2013, 01:32 AM

haha... I wonder why....

I have to get new lugs for them next summer, had a wobble this summer and thought I shifted a belt in a tire... took it to a shop and the guy used a impact gun to put them back on after he balanced them... couldn't get them off and he wrecked the lugs... almost wrecked the wheels too... ill inspect them closer next summer when they go back on!
