    'Cuda got new Fish Eyes, what cha think?
    « on: October 11, 2006 - 04:35:17 PM »
    Decided to upgrade headlights. Put them on relays and installed some H4's. I know they don't look quite factory of course. But they look alright?  :clueless: Have to grow on me, should be much much brighter than the stockers though

    I think they look good.  Been thinking about the H4s for a year, since I bought the relays.

    Absolutely, hands down money well spent. Just drove home for the first time with them tonight. Killer difference,  :bigshades:, i need to adjust them and they'll be a little better since the passenger is kinda heading downwards. But my $24 (shipped) headlights/bulbs are workin well  :bigsmile:

    Looks good.  They do standout a little more than stock, but I like them.

    Goody,

    Where do you get the lights and did you use the procedure from Mads Electrical?

    Got the lights off ebay. And I haven't read the MAD thing, i just made a new harness from the out side of the relays directly to the headlights, and used the stock wiring just to trigger the relays. Stock wiring is still there and functional just in case during my shake down something happened.  :bricks1:
