I never updated with a picture! I guess its cause I didn't take one I had the lights working but I took a drive down a dirt road and now they don't. these lights have frustrated the hell out of me from the start.

if you are using the bumper for a ground try running a seperate one (ground wire) for the lights. just run it straight from the neg on the battery right to the lights if they work than you know that was the issue and than you can rerun the wire properly and make it all nice looking

I have it grounded under the hood to a bolt on top of the radiator. I don't think that's the problem. I think its the splice connections are loose.

not much has been going on lately, I decided the lights weren't bright enough to warrant fixing them. so now they're just decorations until I get some 100w. I bedlined my rockers and insides of my doors yesterday. ill snap some pics.

I'm pretty happy with it. it looks good and will be very functional.
