    I'm going to install some behind the grill lights this weekend and wanted to get the Hella black magic kit for a sleeker look ( being black n all )

    Seen alot of posts about guys saying they were too big to there liking. I haven't been able to find any pics of the black magics installed.

    Does anyone have these installed or seen any pics of them instralled? I'd like to see them before I buy them and get an idea. Thanks:headbang::headbang:

    So TW lives up to it's reputation. Causing me to spend more money. I just purchased a $600 Dewalt power tool set (Tim the tool man Taylor grunt) so I could mod out the Yota some more. Kick ass toys though!!:yay: $150 off through memorial day weekend too. So go out to the Home Depot and get ya some. I finally got around to installing the Hella black magics behind my billet grill. Now tomorrow I'll start the wiring and post some pics of the set up. I still haven't seen any Black Magics on any Tacos yet. So I'll post em soon!

    Sorry it took so long. I'm not finished with the front end I still need to put on my lower grill, and my eyelids are being painted, as well as my trd emblem coming in the mail. But nobody wants to see that. You want to see the Black Magics hahah. Aight, it's dark and I'll have to take some day pics later.

    All the lights are alot brighter than this but I had to take a top angle pic because the pic wont turn out. It's too bright! The lights aren't that yellow either. I mean I'm not making excuses because I need to get HID's hahah but they really aren't that yellow.

    Yeah I'm getting a few of these. I did a mount similar to ilovetacos behind the grill lights. Except the Hellas are alot bigger and I have a billet gril. I mounted a steel bracket on the bottom of the grill surround by drilling two holes for the light brackets that came with the Hellas. Barely fit but it worked out perfect because the are held in tight and theres no shaking what so ever. Ill post some pics later.
