Picked up some replacement smoked taillights.

It has rained all day here so I'll have to wait to install them.

Going out of town this weekend. 76461764627646376464

I like the floor mats! Not so much the smoked tail light's BUT that's where the personal interest comes from when modifying a duel cab ute or Big rig or Truck

Installed the grill and headlights today

The headlights need some adjusting. Specifically the driver side top one [emoji1787]

Wired up the LEDs after work
They look sharp at night

I have to ask you won't be blinding other road users, with the LED conversion kit
as the car did not come with these from the factory.

[Daviddear30]

No worries asking. No. These aren't even the headlights. These are more like daytime running lights. They just look cool. They aren't super Brite. Just very white.


Many people upgrade from halogen to HIDs which are much brighter.

2000 stock truck headlights suck compared to my 2014 corvette lights. No comparison on brightness.

Yeah technology has come a long way my brother's AMG has Matrix headlights,
And my sister in law has a 2022 Mazda CX5 with LED headlights and fog lights.

I live out of town but in general here in Tasmania we have a hell of a lot of wildlife and our roads are FULL of potholes, or as i call them " Sink Holes"

[Daviddear30]

I've never even heard of matrix headlights. Headed to Google [emoji1787]
