    yeah. they aren't blue when thay are turned on but the halo ( wired separately) is blue when on. I dunno, I thought I would like the look but didn't realize they would be so obvious behind the grillcraft.

    I say go with the Hella 700FF if you change it out because they do look clean next to the factory lights, don't overpower, and are lightweight and durable. Nice job on the brackets!

    Took your advice, thanks!
    Actually they are 500FFs. Added bonus when using this kind of bracket, I can put the Hella stone covers on and they're not upsidedown.

    Not a must but you will see what you think. You can always add them later.
