Default Got my Hella's installed!!

So, only took six freakin' hours and a busted front panel cuz i'm a dumbnut apparently, but they're finally on!!! O and my buddy and i argued about behind the grille, but i went with having them out like he suggested and i'm still super stoked on the results. Plus i got to learn how to use a dremel, cutoff wheel, and a welder. Enjoy!


Silverstar Ultra heads only:

Same as above with Hella 500FF's on:

Te switch!!:

I tried, honestly! Haha. In all reality, it would've taken the same amount of time to drill out the holes and whatnot, but instead i got the whole "I'm a mechanic and fabricator, let's make something so it's not blocking your airflow through your grille..." I still think it looks sweet either way!


On a side note, anyone know how to repair a broken valence piece without having to get a completely new one?? First pic you can see where i snapped it off under the passenger side headlight trying to get the whole thing off... D'oh!!!

You just slide the extenders out, pick out the little mats with a thin screwdriver, and then you'll see a little button thing underneath each one. Take a quarter (at least i did since there was one right there) and turn them and then the console should release!

Definitely doing this Fairly soon, just made the brackets the other day. Now need to order some lights and find the time to do it. Hope it comes out as good as yours considering my truck is the same color as yours
