I put a set of these lights on my 350 last summer and absolutely love them. Of course I picked mine up for 100 bucks at the online auction site. Not much cutting is involved, but you do have to remove the 'glass header to do it right. I would definitely run a bead of silicone around the area that seals the clear plastic to the back of the light. I would def. upgrade the bulbs from what come stock with these light though, kinda crappy output. If ya got any questions let me know. Nice upgrade and the foglights in the housing look really cool. Later, Judd

As far as bulbs, it all just depends on how much you wanna spend. Sylvania silverstars seem to be pretty popular and not too pricey. The fog lights are seperate from the h/l beams, 3 seperate beams altogether. The fog's require you to wire them seperately from the rest of the lights. The h/l beams just plug into the factory harness with a new plug. Just run new wires and relay for the fogs and setup the new switch for them, good luck, Judd

Stupidjet, did ya happen to notice the date on this post you dug up??
I asked this a YEAR AGO when they were fresh out on the market.
I read every thread here, so when I ask a question, it's because it hasn't been talked about before....


02...They went on Ebay a week after I bought them....IMO they were pretty cheesy..

Yes, I didn't think they were the best quality, and I didn't feel like cutting up my rad support.

My vehicles have to be DOT legal, long story, something to do with the 1.5 mil pending lawsuit I am involved in....
