    God damn he is selling parts for cheap. The superwhite grill with a grillcraft insert for only $200! The insert alone cost $200, and a colormatched grille is another $200

    I know, it was tempting but I like my 2011 grille.

    No, that thing would be heavier than hell to push!

    Save a few bucks and try Harbor Freight. I've picked up a few things from there and they've worked out quite well. Remodeling the whole downstairs now myself.

    Welcome back and congrats on the marriage!

    I vote, while you're in there doing the BHLM, you should do a projector retrofit also. AND... I happen to have a retrofit kit for sale :evil:

    Don't fall out :laughing:

    ^ you reminded me to elaborate on what i said before

    Keep in mind i use these tools all the time for work, cheaper harbor freight, ryobi/rigid tools would be good if they aren't seeing much use. Are you looking for just a regular drill or a impact driver? If its a regular drill then the three major brands are pretty close IMO, dewalt, Milwaukee, makita. But if your looking for a impact driver Makita takes the cake. I have owned all three brands, my makita still kicks ass. I have not tried the new milwaukee brushless, but i own one of the models they came out with before the new one. Don't buy it, the brushes wear out very quick and after a few months the torque goes out the window, mine is very slow now, very loud and needs new brushes. Dewalt is alright but i have always had bad luck with the batteries, they seem to go bad very quick. I have 2 makita impacts, the first one i got probably 5 years ago and it still works great, i also own one of their newest models and its the best impact i ever bought. Brushless motor, 3 speeds, beats all the other brands for torque. I have dropped it off ladders, use the back of it as a hammer...:), lets just say i put it through alot of abuse. I would not recommend buying the cheaper makitas from home depot (white and black) buy one of the bigger 18v green and black models from a place like toolplus.com or a local lumber yard. The tools that home depot sells use cheaper parts.
    For corded circ saws milwaukee is my favorite. Makitas cant take as much abuse as them, and the locking mechanism for depth adjustment on dewalts is in a awkward spot. Plus on some milwaukees you can adjust the grip which is nice. The worm drives are really awesome.

    Haha, I'm teasing you, they've been sitting in my basement for a while now. I had some issues when I first bought them, TRS warrantied them, sent me new parts but I haven't had the time to install them. They're the morimoto mini H1 retrofit kit with upgraded bulbs and mini gattling shrouds.

    I'm fairly experienced with the install but I'm not sure I'd be able to help out. I've got a kid on the way and a lot of house renovations going on (that's the only reason these puppies haven't been installed back into my truck). Life's kind of turned upside down at the moment :eek:
