    Do duel LEDs controlled by a switch or a solenoid. When you are parked they are blue when you turn your lights on they change to orange.

    I was thinking white for the "parking light". Like when you turn your lights on, it'll be white. but when you hit the signals, it goes amber/ orange/ clementine mandarins.

    ya, it looks great but is there a way you can fix the light when it drops off.

    if you plugged in your gauge cluster without the right sender your gauge is fried, if you didn't you need to get the proper sending unit, just tell them wherever you go you need the sender for the cluster with the gauge

    on the tach take a wire from the coil to either the P or + terminal screw on the tach

    LOL...its supposed to be like that, its slopped lower on the left side so oncoming traffic is not blinded and its a little higher on the right to illuminate signs and what not..all cars with OEM HID projectors are like this, some dont step up as aggressively

    technically you could remove it by just grinding the shield down flat..

    got rear ended this morning on my way to school, i was actually the second car to be hit,:mad: its not that bad the rollpan took all the damage the tailgate has a little damage. The girl did have insurance thank god, so we'll see what i get to fix it..its gotta be close to 2gs i'm thinking with replacement rollpan and depending on what they do to the tailgate...i'm curious if the insurance company will want to total me out, the truck is probably worth around 2gs..we'll see what happens

    Bummer dude. Im really contiplating not driving my truck when its done just in case some idiot pulls that crap. WAY too many man hours and money into something for it to be trashed by a dummy not paying attention. Hope you get some funds. If they total it buy it back and you'll have money left over.
