bheinen74 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Subaru gives us 2 lights, so lets make it 10. BRIGHT. All cars should be lit this way, so we can see the Deer and coons, and possums sooner. I would love to go shine that at a particular ex girlfriends front window every so often to piss her off.

TheCaptain Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 I would of put aircraft landing lights on it like i got on my bronco but they are a pain to rig up and i wasn't sure if the thing could take it. Although 8 24v 250w acl's would be kickass on it:grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 looks like your headlights are a little dim? Have you done the relay mod? Its a must before adding any lights to an older car I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4x4_Welder Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Relay mod- Using the existing headlight switch and wiring to trigger two relays behind each light, getting their power straight from the battery. Makes the headlights much brighter, and makes the wiring and switch last much longer. I do have two questions, though- How long can you run them before the battery dies, and Is that brush guard PVC?

Durania Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Also whats up with your corner lights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 relay mod?Because atm the power for the headlights has to go through the steering stalk switch, and most of the time you loose over a volt in that. In my brumby my headlights were getting 10.5 volts while the car was running on highbeam (battery at 13.5v). After putting in relays the headlights had 13v at them. Much brighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCaptain Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 how is the glare off the hood? The dirt keeps the glare down most of the time:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to see if i could do it. The nice thing is that they don't rust... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Well the PVC brush guard is certainly better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCaptain Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 Its purely cosmetic just a "test" project to see how much it can take, and so far its been quite surprising how tough it been:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoobieDoo Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 If you haven't already, you might want to upgrade your alternator. Search for GM 100, or Maxima 90 amp. I'm thinking you'll need the 100+!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
