You'll love these lights! Don't be afraid to ask questions. You should see my thread from when I was doing my install lol. I learned a lot!

My tip...if you are following the youtube install with that guy and his wife....DO NOT ground where he did. Ground it to the rad support. You will see a bolt with other wires grounded there. Can be a little difficult to reach but its much better.

That's a good deal. I bought a used set for $650 shipped. Outside I go to install these. Maybe this thread will help out someone else in my situation.

$650 is a good price for a gently used pair...
