nick, i dont mean to sound rude, but, is it me or is there just 2 spots of lights on each side? are they fog lights or a driving light with a pencil beam. in the pic, it doesn't look like there is really much light going on the ground. i have a FOG light on the back of my X and the beam of light is a wide short sort of beam.

That's what you got isn't it?

You should just be able to unscrew the frame and replace the bulb.

Do you realize that at this time a day, it's always you and me Nick?

Nick, Racer's right about your lights though. How come you see the spot on the ground? What lights did you buy?

its not the bulb that causes that. its the light itself. you can change the bulbs till the cows come home. it wont change the beam pattern.

It looks really good, especially the 04 with the 08 mirrors. They really stick out. How do they light up dark places though?

Racer is right. It's the reflector itself that does the concentration of the beam pattern.

Fog is wide and then you have work lights that are even wider. Try them out for awhile to see if they work for you before you change bulbs and then we can buy some together.
