I actually laughed when I turned them on.
These little things are bright as hell. Nearly the range of high beams but the light spread to the sides of the road is fantastic. 5/7 lights for night driving around here. Only got flashed once for them, so I was turning them on/off like I would with high beams, but I suspect if I had the white lenses it would have been worse.
Lighting everything up yellow is cool too.

Yeah, I'll pop the passenger side out and aim it down slightly to reduce the glare. We were also driving in the day light... You have to see these beasts at night.[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 9:57 amI think if you aim the passenger side one down just a hair, it wouldn't be as bad. That was the only issue I had when I was driving in front of you with the lights on, just a little glare. Driver's side was good.Apex wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 8:45 am So, I finally got to use the Squadron-R Sports at night last night.

I would too if I didn't have the front receiver mount for the winch.[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 10:21 amYeah, now that I've swapped the Morimotos into my truck, the lighting is 5/7.
I'd do a LED bar on yours if you can without hampering cooling too much.
When I installed the winch mount, I did take out the tow hooks. I've through about putting lights down there, but I"m sure they'll die a quick death being that low.

I'd look into doing something like the Baja Designs S2 Sports on the sides of the front receiver mount. Would keep them protected instead of being down low where the tow hooks were.Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 10:28 amI would too if I didn't have the front receiver mount for the winch.[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 10:21 am

Yea, definitely considered this. It's hard to tell how much space they'll take up because there's not a lot of room to get the winch hooked up when you need. Maybe I should just and see how it goes.Apex wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 10:41 amI'd look into doing something like the Baja Designs S2 Sports on the sides of the front receiver mount.

I still haven't installed my fog lights because it requires being under the car and removing that goddamn plastic tray thing, which I can't safely do on the streetApex wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 8:45 am So, I finally got to use the Squadron-R Sports at night last night.

Here's the specs for the S2's. Make some cardboard templates and see if they'll fit?Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 10:43 amYea, definitely considered this.

Baja designs makes legit awesome shit. Would do it. I had no idea they made WRX stuff or I'd have gone with them.Detroit wrote: ↑Fri Aug 31, 2018 10:43 amYea, definitely considered this.

I'm pretty sure I'd be shunned immediately if I showed up there. Car is dirty and I haven't visited Bumper Dan yet to get the cyclist damage fixed. But yes this is a good idea. It's easy work, I bet it would only take an hour to install.
