    How did you hook it up? Did you ground each light? If only 1 light is grounded i believe you only get 6v and not 12v

    To those who did this, on a 2012+, did you paint the reflector for the Amber DTRL? I'm thinking about doing a retrofit, with a morimoto mini and a blue demon eye, and blacking out the reflector bowl, but not sure about the DTRL reflector.

    Do you have any pictures of these installed? Also some night pictures of the light output would be sweet. Very interested

    Does anybody have a picture of the back of their retrofit? I want to see if people have it closed off or not and how.

    Looks good. Was that your first FXR install?

    Just a few LEDs...
    Still only have the BHLM (no retrofit), but I added some red LEDs to the "bulb shield" inside the headlights to give an angry red eye effect.

    Question for everyone running retrofits: How high do you set them at 25 feet? Every source I checked has the proper way to aligned them left to right but only say set the height at the side mirrors of a passenger car. But with so many cars out there on the road is there like an average or some standard? So far mine are set fine but I'll probably raise them up a bit or wait till I adjust my coilovers. I'm just curious given the fact we have lifted trucks the angle is a little steeper than sedans with projectors. By the way I came up with a height of 40" at 25 ft.
