HID Retro Memoirs NNBS Tahoe/Suburban
Nice job Lee, final result came out awesome. It's hard for me to look at stock Tahoe headlights after I've grown accustomed to how OEM a retrofit looks. Amber DRLs are a Avy thing though lol but then again I don't even run DRLs anymore cause I did the quad parking/turn. Enjoy your retrofit brother. -

Added Dynamat - Got a noticeably quieter ride
Great job on the install, to people looking to sound deadening material I recommended contacting Don at Sounddeadenershowdown. Really knowledgable about vibration and sound deadening. Dynomat, second skin, and whatnot are more for resonance dampening while materials like MLV or Thinsulate is...- iCalvin

Was just going through this thread and can't help but notice that the projector is mounted sideways.- iCalvin

Thanks y'all! The weather was perfect that day too, it was good to get out of the blazing heat in the central valley.- iCalvin

A Day at Pismo Beach
Took a road trip down to Pismo yesterday with some of my buddies to go see a The Classic car show but realized today was only cruise night but that didn't stop us from finding things to do. My buddy was camping out at the dunes for the week and invited me earlier that week to roll by. I got a...- iCalvin

LED Light Bar Installed
It's not mounted to the foam. It's mounted to the plastic "valley" where the foam on the bumper assembly slips into. It's pretty sturdy in there. Below is a picture of my auxilary battery setup before new alternator and redoing the cables. I do not have pictures of how I mounted it at the... -

LED Light Bar Installed
I have a 25" led bar mounted to the the bumper support plastic where the bumper foam slides into, I also have a transcooler and the bar is bright up against it. I had to cut the bumper foam to accommodate the LED bar legs but the foam is easy to cut. I use my bar as a work light when I have to... -

2015 Yukon HID Conversion from The Retrofit Source
Most modern day Mopar vehicles need a capacitor or Can-bus harness in line to get rid of the flicker. Dunno if you tried that or not, just a suggestion. The cutoff doesn't look bad either, but still a noticeable amount of glare above the cutoff. I don't think these projectors were the same as... -

relay in harness?
That should be the relay that retains the turn signal/hazard "clicking noise." Same concept as the stock turn signal relay click but for some reason when you swap headunits to aftermarket it doesn't work anymore which is what that is for.- iCalvin

FXR Quad Retro
It does really suck. TRS has been good to me so far though haha. They will more than likely help me out with this problem as they have previous problems. Thanks again! Also, uploaded some newer pics since I got bored today lol. -

FXR Quad Retro
Haha, I always tear stuff apart just to figure out how things work. Differences in personality. A retrofit honestly isn't a necessity, its more of a luxury item. People have been running sealed beam lights before halogens came out and people were fine back then with what seems like no light... -

FXR Quad Retro
I know exactly what you mean about not having enough time, as it took me over 2 months to complete this since I kept setting it aside for more important things. I maybe would pay someone to do a retro for me if I had money and really stretched on time, and being 19 I don't have that much to... -

HID Retro Memoirs NNBS Tahoe/Suburban
Marcus it is a easy fix with the MH1 depending on how they mounted it. If they used the threaded mounting shaft with the lockring and not epoxy, you can turn the projector from the rear by spreading a pair of needle nose pliers to grip the notches in the rear of the projector used to align the... -

FXR Quad Retro
Thanks you two! Appreciate the kind words I wouldn't put HIDs in the the GMT900 fog lights, it turns them into a big flood light that is super annoying and obnoxious as heck lol. I had HID bulbs with glare caps from retro solutions prior to the LED bulbs and even though I never ran them... -

FXR Quad Retro
Haha thanks. Thanks Thanks, I stripped the chrome using outdoor strength bleach. Pretty much the easiest way to strip the chrome on headlight parts. Shrouds use a different chemical. Thanks, no I only have FXRs on the low beam bowl, a FXR would never fit the high beam bowl, I tried to fit...
