lights behind the grille, custom switch panel
I'm wanting to get some hella 500's and mount them behind my grill, I haven't really looked back there to see some possible locations, I know I saw a good write up on here somewhere but I can't seem to find any. Can Yall post a couple pics of yalls set ups and how Yall mounted them
Also I'm wanting to do something with my switches, I'm gonna have maybe 4 or 5 total with the Hellas, less inside, dvd bypass and couple others. I don't really want them just out in the open, does anyone have a good idea to mount this many or maybe a cool custom panel. Also I've seen switch panels but never Nd good ones, could anyone recommend a good one, thanks

there pretty good with this one you can get a little light shake and i mean noticeable but not enough to be annoying really just up and down. the hellas are good you can probaly get away with driving with them on one of two people might flash you but they help with deer for me !! i have silverstar headlights as well with those and the hellas i have seen 2 miles down the road ..as for those pics ill look tomorrow or take new ones !!

Since the pic was taken I cleaned up the wiring, ran it thru some black wire loom and painted the piece of angle iron black. It looks much better now.

I didnt take a pic of it but I used the switch that came with the lights (Hella's) and mounted in the dash panel between the cigarette lighter and back up sensor off button. That required grinding off a molded in plug connector on the back of the panel that wasnt used (I think its for a centered lighter) and drilling a hole in it).
