    I would hate to pull my headlights back out just to change something. Huge PITA in my opinion.

    And you don't have a plate bumper with hoops!...:D If I had gone hoopless it would be cake. The hoops require me to loosen the bumper to get the lights out. A Pita yes, but I like have having nice lights with "No" Led's going out...which is what I had...:(

    No halos for me for that reason. My supercharger coolant lines all come through the driver's side headlight opening. I wasn't sure I'd get the Retro's back in the hole. What angry person decided we needed one bolt through the inner fender pointed forward?!

    So True!. The good thing with the plate bumper is that it's really easy to access the bolt...

    Hey Rick.. What was the issue with your other halos? They just started burning out? Are the xb's an upgrade over your last ones?

    Curious because I will be updating my headlights soon as well, and was going to switch from my ccfl's (which I've had zero issues with for 4 years) to the switchback led halos... But have heard numerous stories of them burning out. That... I do not want to happen. Lol

    Rick had the earlier version that had some issues with that. The current switchback halos are supposed to have the bugs worked out. Also, the earlier model could not run on amber constantly, the new one can. I can vouch for that as I run mine only on amber and have no issues so far.

    You the man. Thanks for that info. How long have you had them? Mine will be on a switch so I can go back and forth.

    Yeah...my drivers side Halo LED's were going out in places. Passenger side was solid, so I guess it's hit and miss. The Xb's are the latest, so we'll see how those play out in the long run. Got almost 2 years with the last set, but yeah...changing out lights is a PITA if you have to do it on a regular basis. Fingers crossed on this set...:D

    Correcto! Hopefully I can get a few years with the new ones...:D

    @deeezy Dana...did you try wiring in the switchbacks to the turn signals? Was thinking of doing that...

    I actually didn't. I wanted to keep all of my lights amber. It's very easily done though. Just tap the amber lead into your blinker wire.

    @deeezy Sounds logical, but I was talking with Burt (aka Ambiguious) at Rechelon and he said he had trouble getting them to work off the from blinkers with the Halo's!?!?? He said to try tapping off the rears, but I'm not sure since there shouldn't be any difference between front and back. Guess I'll have to experiment...:D

    Finished the hood wrap today..:) Good day to take off from work...:p Just to clarify...the hood wrap was done professionally...not by me!! I did the tailgate and that was scary as hell. The hood sheet of vinyl costs $200 and you don't get second chances. I have to set boundaries on some projects...:D
