    I figured we can have a thread where we can talk about retrofits, without clogging up other threads. We can post questions, pictures, or anything related to retrofits. I also compiled a few of them. If you have/know any threads that will help with retrofits, let me know. I'll do my best to update this.

    A few things
    Looks great! I have a few questions. Did you do everything yourself and if so how difficult was it? Do they make plug and play headlights with the halos etc already in them(2013)? What would you say the average cost is for this upgrade? These things look so bad ass! Gotta start saving and reading up on this. Thanks

    I thought about doing a video. Maybe next time when I do another one :spy: Or you can top your how-to with a video of your own!

    I hate the stock lights. So dim and I can't see shit lol. Its all forested highways where I live. Lots of deer and elk on the sides of the road. Half the time I don't see them until they are beside me
