    I can't recommend going through @iHacker enough for your harness. I haven't heard one single complaint about his work and I can see why. These things look better than OEM and probably are. I've heard some issues with other guys and I can only imagine the eBay ones. Don't skimp out on quality to save a few bucks you'll regret it.

    Not quite dark but here a few pics of cutoff. Not projector like but pretty good. When I can get on a dark road or something I'll post output pics from in cab
    Low beams are nice and bright
    High beams aren't too bad, they are wide too. I like that the lows stay on when highs are on
    Last pic is just LED DRL on full brightness

    If you don't have auto DRL dimming (platinum or 1794), do yourself a favor and get it added to your iHacker harness. I think they may be too bright for nighttime driving.

    First real night drive last night. The low beam output is probably twice as good as the old halogen lights. Plus its nice and white and clear. The high beams imo are also better, reach further and the beam is much wider.
    I think I'll upgrade my fog lights soon because now I can't even tell they are on, whereas before they did help a little with seeing the sides of the road. The new 18 LEDs just take over the whimpy old fogs.

    looks great man! I am having a problem with mine and just started a thread about it. My DRLs keep going off when the headlights are on after a bit. I was wondering if it may be the harness. Where can I find the harness you used? I got mine at headlight revolution. thanks
