Just a few questions. Any pics of how you mounted it ? How long did it take to arrive from China ? How well does it light up the road at night ? Are the two parts of the light able to be used independent of the other ? Looks good.

Thanks for your help

Best modifications under -image-2032933362.jpg Best modifications under -image-2961552574.jpg I think its the holes for the license plate bracket. There are 2 of them. It was super easy to mount using those 2 existing holes. Don't buy the light with the mount on the ends. Get the one here in the picture, its adjustable. Here is the link to my seller. He ships from California. Shipping to Georgia took about 5 business days. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...d=121539667898

Its brighter than the HID high beams and its a very white light. The middle lights are the spot and the outside 6 are floods. They are on at the same time for a combo effect. I'll post some pics tonight.

Would like to see some night shots if you can, For the few times out of the year that I would use it, I wouldn't mind something super affordable and it wouldn't hurt much if it gets stolen.

Man, that's exactly what I want. I have a 12 inch, I think. And it's only a spot. But it's still bright as all hell. Mounted mine the same place you did yours. Good look, man.

Installed these patches on my seat covers can't afford to have the logo stitched into the leather. Have a couple more that go on the head rest but they came out pretty good so far. Best modifications under -image-2571687183.jpg

Appears from the pic you could aim the lightbar higher slightly! As to me the Highbeams seems to appear Brighter from your pics!

a while back i swapped my license plate bulbs to led's. and i couldnt get the bulb to twist and click together with the bulb housing on either of them but i am told they twist back into place normal. i gently placed the bulb in the housing and it has worked fine since, however i noticed last night the one bulb was out and it was because as i found out the bulb fell out, has anyone else had this issue? i tried again to click them tonight still no luck. is it necessary for the blue rubber ring around the bulb or ? thanks
