Default Not To Techinical Yet: Wally World Lights

So I purchased some of the wally world blazer lights that I am sure we have all heard of. I haven't wired them up yet, waiting till my five days off and surco install next week. Want to make sure I do everything nice and clean. Here is a pic with them bolted on.


I will have to say, for this to be a rather cheap mod I do think it turns out quite nicely. I will do a full wire write up when I get to that next week.

looks good!!

if those are the same light that I put on the front bumper you can get 100 watt replacement bulbs for them instead of the 50's that are in them now. I suggest you run a relay I now that mine didn't come with one so I had to buy it and install as an after thought.

I will def. get some night shots and what not as soon as I wire them up. Kinda been lazy the last few days and I want to spend the time to do everything perfect the first time.
Yes this is a great solution for us people on a budget especially when it comes to lighting. I knew I wouldn't use them much but I wanted them for those "oh crap some extra lighting would be nice" times. I also like the fact if you break one or what have you, your only out like $17 as opposed to $100 for Hellas and KC's.

These are taken from another forum write-up with the wally world lights.

I Like the Wally's because they're square..........just like my XJ!
Besides, those round ones look huge. ( But I'm sure they give more light.)
