    20170801_094508.jpg Well I got a set of the

    PIAA Chrome Ion Crystal Lamps.
    The initial unboxing is well just cut the tape and open. This is what you see:

    Nothing out of the ordinary. But flip it over and this is what you see:

    Plug but now wire harness. I don't know if that's because if you use 2 you would need a different harness? But it doesn't come with a wire harness. With that said you will need some wire and a in-line fuse to wire this. Also a switch to power them on and off.
    So just painted the exposed metal from drilling.
    Installed the lights just to give you guys a idea what it looks like.

    Finished the install. Wasn't very eventful.
    The white wire is the power lead to in-line
    (15 Amp)fuse then to battery. The black wire to ground.
    Wired the white wire from the left light to the white wire to the right one. Then from that to the in-line fuse. Same as the black wire to the ground.

    The light output is pretty much a concentrated light beam from both lights. I focused the light a little above low beam. And a little below the high beam.
    The light is a yellowish light so should help with fog, rain or snow.

    To do the install you will need the following:
    Power wire 14/16 awg
    Ground wire 14/16 awg
    In-line fuse 15amp
    Connectors for 14/16 awg 8 needed
    Connectors 14/16 awg for battery terminal and one for the ground.
    Phillips Screw driver
    Wire strippers
    Zip ties
    And about 1 1/2 hours to complete job.
    Any questions please post. Thanks for looking.
