    I think that will be my next major mod. Going to try and wait until I catch up on everything else though.

    Hey PCBuilder... are you running LED reverse lights? (I thought I saw something about that in the first gens section)

    I'm wanting some reliable and bright reverse LEDs... any suggestions?

    Don't know why I didn't think of this before, and it probably won't happen for a while. But for an extra set of reverse lights, you could buy a driver side and passenger side cb antenna mount from B.A.M.F and install the lights on those!

    ^Thanks for the link. Also, I'm liking the idea of the BAMF bracket for extra lights...

    Welcome! :thumbsup:

    Yeah, it would work great for somebody that has the stock rear bumper but wants auxiliary reverse lights.








    Oh yeah, and I just ordered a retrofit kit and new headlights! :goingcrazy:

    Tried ordering yesterday before the discounts expired, but they codes expired early and I sent them an email. Glad I did, because I just called them up and they confirmed that I attempted to place an order by looking at the time on the email. So they honored their coupon! Great company to deal with so far.

    Here's what I ordered:

    Bi-xenon Morimoto Mini Stage III Kit (D2S)
    — Morimoto 3Five (35w) D2S Ballasts
    — Morimoto 3Five 4300K D2S Bulbs
    — Amber Morimoto XB LED Halos
    — LHD Projectors
    — Re-sealing Glue
    — Gatling Gun Shrouds
    — H4/9003 Wiring Harness


    And these headlights/corner lights

    Nice. Are those one-piece lights? Those look OEM but I recall some member who had the one-piece units but they were ridiculously expensive.

    No, they're two separate pieces thank goodness. I wouldn't be able to do the blinker relocate if it was one piece.... Which means I'll have to do that all over again haha :rolleyes:

    This is going to be complicated. Now that I've looked at all the parts, I think I'm going to just have to hang out at the welding shop and help. Way too many parts.....

    I know right? :rolleyes:

    But after looking at a completed bare metal one, it's not that bad. I think it was the little pieces for the fog light mounts that has me confused as well as the plate with a bunch of random holes haha

    Haha yeah...

    But it's not too bad now that I know what goes where...
    :rolleyes:

    I have no idea what you're talking about haha
    What's wrong with that? :D

    I'd only drive it on base...
    Yup, supposed to make a Relentless bumper out of it. No directions, but Eric at Relentless has been very helpful with my thousands of questions haha











    So I think I'm going to wait until Friday to take it to the Welding shop, because I'll have all that day off plus most of Saturday. This will allow me much more time
