Not much to show right now. Beginning tear down for swapping the trans this weekend. Trying to resist temptation to upgrade things at this point. Too much time. Too much money. Spent a few hours mounting the ballasts for the lights and running wires into the engine compartment. Moved the outer lights toward the center to protect them better and facilitate mounting a bolt-on brush guard in the future (haven't made it yet). Also moved the lights forward 3/4" so the grill can be removed without removing the lights. Didn't want to hack the grill up to do so. Mounted the ballasts to the skid plate. Had them there in the past with double sided tape. Worked well, so I just bought some cheap brackets and bolted them on. Didn't want to put them on the core support. More crack inducing weight. Haha!

Well just an FYI, Xantec is an eeebay-style company. Idk much about the bulb sizing (on those headlights), but if its a normal size you can just snag them off eeebay for like $40.

Unless your buddy offers a good warranty.

Good deal then. I'm not saying the eebay ones are bad. I've had an eebay set myself, but when I took them out to sell them, the bulbs were just about to blow (after 9 months) with no warranty.

Warranty means everything.
