    When using a proper Hid headlight with the proper projector , eg bmw , audi etc . The commodore ones arn't proper ones ,so they just shoot out a muddy beam thats scattered

    ^Exactly. I see cars with aftermarket HID's all the time, the commodore fog lights stand out. But I must say, I have never been blinded by oncoming traffic.


    New battery is in yay. Vassoed both terminals and the stereo wires are on the side posts.

    What does the Vaseline do? Stops eroding or something?

    Yeah the best stuff to use on battery terminals, even better to use Vaseline than that paint.

    Fair enough the SS lights look better, it's something different and I kinda like them.

    [​IMG]

    It looks like the seal isn't lined up but I reckon I can jiggle it around.

    [​IMG]

    It's getting there.. Probably going to have a piece of mdf at the back from top to bottom. I've had enough for tonight. Bolt it up 2moro.

    Duct Tape them to the roof more like it.

    Though commodore sedan roofs don't flex much in the middle, but at the front above windshield is crazy.

    Took the car out today. Got some more photos of the head lights. Looks different :eek:.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    And reversed the car in so I can get a photo of the lights on. A bit close though.

    [​IMG]

    I managed to line the lights up a bit better, just had to hold it in place while doing the bolts up. Then shoved the seals into the fender because they weren't 100%.
