Thinking of installing some Hella lights on the stock bumper for some extra luminence on the roads I take home. They normally have deer near them and my stock lights suck at night. I want to mount them just inside of each light, will I hit the vaccum stuff there?

no nothing to worry about back there, the vaccum canister is on the pass side under the turn signal.

A little torch and grinder work


Hacked off the protuding part of the hitch on my bumper, I like the smoother look. And its still functional enough.

I did the autopal H4 euro conversion with the eautoworks harness w/ 100w bulbs and TOOK THE TIME TO AIM THEM PROPERLY, and dang: its GOOOD.
The Hellas will also be nice, remember any airflow blockage in the rad airstream will reduce coolilng efficiency.....

How long did it take you to install the eautoworks harness? I've had it sitting in the garage for MONTHS. I installed the H4 housings (IPF), but never got around to doing the harness.

Took me about a half hour. Its pretty easy since its all plug and play, no crimping or cutting. It probably took me ten minutes just to find my tools since I took off the grill and headlight surrounds to gain better access. Made a big difference for me! Today I watched the gas gauge go down. I have about 1/4 take left and went 241 miles. Not bad I guess considering I usually never drive highway. Gotta throw my new plugs in this weekend finally. They've been sitting on my work bench for 3 months. :laugh: Something about the coil rail always makes me put it off.
