Got the headlights properly adjusted, the e-code housings I have them in are REALLY nice, actually gives the headlights a cutoff. which lowers itself as it goes to the oncoming traffic. Drove it around minneapolis for about 2 hours seeing if anyone would flash their high beams, judging if it was too bright blinding people, and nobody did. (passed a good 300+ cars oncoming)

Didn't do much. I just replaced the switches for my wig wag lights with the kind that light up when they're on.. a blue one for the tails, a red one for the headlights, although I have to finish them up... these use a different type of connector to connect to the wire than my previous switches.

I liked the look of the LED's over my stock light (brighter, more attractive), also the housing was a bit tarnished, couldn't polish it up well, and a couple of the lights burnt out. On top of being new to replacing things I didn't want to keep pulling them off junkers and running outside the yard just to see how they work/look. Figured while replacing the tail lights might as well just get something matching for the 3rd light. There was a deal for 10% off if I spent over 100 bux so it was impulsive to just buy that as well. Think they turned out well. I'll post pics this weekend !
