• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

20W LED Spots

I don't know how you guys get such good pictures of your LED installs, but I post what I took. These are 20W only about 1.5" in diameter.

Mounted them on the top of the lower arm. Hot glued the wires under the bottom side to the ends. I have them wired into the headlight circuit, but added a switch in case they weren't aligned quite right and were blinding people. Yes, I added an air horn and the longer horn, I stuck in the same place, but its tucked behind the frunk.

Liked the first two, so bought 2 more. This is daylight about 20-25 feet away. At night blinding. I added a switch so I could kill them if I get flashed. I think that I will wigwag the upper 2, waiting for the wigwag thing.

WORD OF CAUTION

Bill, I'm an X- LEO, and I would be very careful about doing the " WIG-WAG " thing......That is a Police ONLY thing in most jurisdictions .......If they BLINK together I think your OK tho.........I would check with the Locals ..........................Mike :thumbup:

Thanks for reminding me that things change. Apparently, you use to be able to have a wigwag, but in WA no flashing white lites projecting forward. Actually, its a bit contradictory as to whether or not you can have more than 2 extra forward lights at all. One RCW says no, and another it says yes. You do need a switch so you can turn them off if need be. Also no blue light anywhere on the car flashing or not, and no red light facing forward, flashing or not. Unless of course you are an authorized emergency vehicle.

So we learn everyday if we are lucky.
 
Would you mind posting some closeup photos of the mounting locations (with the lights off)? I love your install but I am having a hard time picturing how/where you mounted the lights. ;)
Thanks...

Being ADD I'm not much on perfection. Here are more pixs I hope this helps. I would wire in a switch, so if they are too bright or misaligned you can kill them.
