    The avec 18w pods worked great in there. The wiring took me a while to figure out going under the truck but I am really happy with the end result.

    A little update:

    [​IMG]

    Did my halos and sealed it with TRS's retro butyl. Switchback function is awesome but unfortunately, I can't even use it. My 2012's turn signal wire is constant and this will leave my amber constant which is a no no.

    [​IMG]
    Next, I finally pre-wired the rear terminal housings for my Iggy panel. What a pain to crimp 36 terminals! Other than wiring the relay wire, at least I don't have to worry about any wires when I add another switch!

    A little update, I found a way. I just tapped into my rear blinkers. Ran the wires from the rear to the fronts and it works flawlessly! :woot:

    ok cool deal. i was just curious because we both have similar set ups as for as the wheels go except your suspension is better. i just have the OEM billies with a revtek coilover lift. one day i will be switchign it to OME with a better coil but for now it rides alright

    @99TacoDriver





    Before and after. I tried to get the same angle. It definitely looks a lot more aggressive and bigger in person. Happy with it!

    Yea I came from a mud terrain and I didn't find them as loud. But hopefully hafter all the new rubber burns off a little they will tone down

    I suck at updating my build :( Anyways, I updated my op post to what it currently looks like. Also I scored another set of headlights and was thinking of my next paint scheme. Thinking of something like this



    But with panamera shrouds painted with toyota's oem magnetic grey with both halos front and behind the shrouds! And this time, with Murano projectors :cool:
