Hey bud .... Good to see you back at it! Headlight conversion, eh? HID's? ROUND? Going like "BLKNBLU" on here, eh? (I think it's him)... But are they HID'$ <<< Yes, I intentionally inserted a Dollar sign in place of the s.... Cuz they wasn't cheap when I last checked! haha.. FILL ME IN!

Best wishes on the bumper. Wabbit was away and has had some backorder waits... But I can't remember on what, lol. I only mention it so that you could maybe contact him if you're planning your weekend around this. Unless you have a tracking number or something?

I got a bit done today too... Mostly planning and verifying where I'm at in the CV dept.., etc., ........ But hey, s'allllll good in the end, and I got fresh rubber on OEM CV's, right?

Take care, man!

Yea HID's are expensive, thats why im not going with them! Ive already got "HID look" bulbs, theyre purple They arent as bright as my silvanias but they look cool. The headlights i got have running lights and halo's. Im not sure if ill use the halos but ill have them just in case. I havent heard that the bumpers are on b/o but who knows the could be. We'll see once the work week starts.

Email Brian... he'll let you know pretty quick. Just PM and Email him from here... He'll fill you in, I'm sure. I have NO IDEA if they are or not... I'm only mentioning it because, well, you might be in a hurry to squeeze this in asap/the install/ so I thought you might wanna know WHEN, approx., the thing will get to you?

I hear ya on the lights... I hear the best reviews on www.roundeyes.com from guys on here and elsewhere, thus far. I mean, the 5x7 housings fit in other carriers/vehicles, I guess...

My buddy has the one from Long Beach off CL who does the halo's..... they've yellowed pretty quickly(the halo's have)... But he likes the light. His have the option to go with Bright White or Blue effect.. He disabled the blue effect as they're not as bright/safe ??? His name is Redeth, he can give you his opinion on those types... While it seems you've gone with a lil different route/round and with new housings?

Best wishes, MCA.... sounds great, want pics, hurry up! hahaha.

The progress is slow going, i still have not gotten my bumper in. hopefully saturday ill be rid of all my auto parts and my jetski parts so i can start on my next project, my snorkel. I did however put my efan on last week and wow there is a difference. There isnt a huge power difference, more of a torque difference. It only took around an hour so its well worth it in my opinion.
