Clearly yours needs to move out wider. The pattern on the road looks pretty average at the moment, might not be that bad as photos make it look worse.

Wasn't sure if they were stock of not as I hadn't seen the interior lights at night on another FG.Hey mate, I'm also from Sydney and interested in getting all my lights done... Have you got the contact details of the guy you got yours from??? Btw it looks good twisted my arm... Edited 28/03/12 03:15 AM by PULNGZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaps easy to deal with and ship's pretty quick (think I had mine in 2-3 days). I'll PM you his details.My high beams (H7's) are Phillips Diamond Vision 5000K which I got from eBay for $32 deliveredbtw when you contact Alex for the HID's ask if he can do the same prices he does for pickup. I got those prices plus $14 I think for express postage with H4's and H11's Edited 28/03/12 05:20 AM by Goliath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
