    Might switch up my strategy and paint on Saturday instead of messing with the lights.

    THEN, it will be setup for full front end maker at Triple C's

    BTW, if you looked into the FSM for the 5-11's it documents removing the front bumper cover to remove the HLs. Granted it does make that one bolt easier and the gymnastics to get the HL out, but still not really worth the added work.

    Put some painters or other heavy duty tape on the lenses beforehand, it's real easy to scrape them across the corner of the fender if you arent too familiar with the process :thumbsup:

    Just picked this puppy up!!!

    20180614_102632.jpg
    20180614_102639.jpg

    Step 1 (remove bumper from pallet) was done in record time! Shaved off about 95 days from my last go round.

    Anyways, I need to order a second set of pods becuase it has cutouts for 2 on each wing.

    Q1:

    • Should I get spot or flood? (Already have floods and the light bar is a spot/flood combo)
    • Can I run 4 led pods on the same OEM fog light circuit? (I don't want to mess with yet another switch)
