I need to get me some new tail lights but I keep spending my money on other things. Just bought a dc power quad alternator bracket for $685 and buyin a new amp for my door speakers. I love audio more then taillights. Lol

I used this on the water spots with a little piece of scotch brite pad. Works like a charm, with minimal elbow grease:

The 9011/9012 bulbs are great. 9005/9006 bulbs are halogens, rated at around 3250K color temp, and the 9011/9012 HIR bulbs are around 3600K, so they're still very stock appearing color temp wise. This is important to me. Then, they work off the stock wiring and require no ballasts or relays, and generate no more heat than the halogens. The 9006 bulbs put out about 1100 lumens and 9005's about 1800 lumens. Respectively, the 9012's rate at 1800, and 9011's rate at 2400, all four using same 55 watts. After a small very easy modification to the tabs on the HIR bulbs, they plug directly in to the factory sockets. So, way more light, and no monkey business with wiring, ballasts, relays, etc.
I use the HIR's for my high beams and HID for my low beams in projectors. The high beams work great now, way better than halogens.

Picked up a replacement seat control module for the driver's seat, plugged it in and we are back in business. Seat moves in every direction, lumbar and side bolster adjustments work, memory works, butt warmer works, the whole nine yards!

No more driving gangsta style laying down almost in the back seat. Was getting a bit annoying after just a couple of days... :emotions122:

Vacuumed the interior, spot cleaned the driver's side floor mat, fiddled around with the stereo settings (still not happy with the overall sound quality and output) and put her outside in the thunderstorm to wash off the dust.

Any details on this? I'm assuming it is probably obvious, but just wanted to ask.

Have you seen some other rigs with this mod? I think it's a no-brainer if the watts are the same, but don't know if there's any long term issues with the housings, reflectors, etc...?
