I will have to get pics of them tonight when it gets dark out.

I did not do any crazy business like don or jr did, I went with plain old replacement assemblies and I put the Sylvania silverstar ultras in and ill just have to see how they do.

Good light  for the dark wet night driving is a good thing. I will be back up there next week getting my moisture levels back up.
