Default RE: lighting placement

Did your truck come with the towing package? Larger alternator, trans. cooler, receiver, pre-wired. Mine didn't, and with the stereo kicking the lights dim as the bass hits At a traffic light the volt meter drop to around 11. Have to either cut down the stereo of turn off the heat/AC.

For Christssake. Your photographs are ridiculously misleading. To start, your halogen to HID comparison is typical MFG Bull****. Those photos have completely different exposure settings.

This first image was taken with a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi with a 4s exposure at f/5.6 at 22.0mm iso100. Good ****ing God. Everybody knows that using an obscenely low ISO in the dark will give you just that. Darkness.



This second image, is clearly photoshoped, as no EXIF data is present. Meaning the image was post processed. Also due to the extremely odd color on the leaves, as well as the purple tint of the tree trunk, I suspect that the Shadow/Highlight tool was used extensively.



Just for kicks, I took your original headlight photo into Photoshop CS3 and used only the automatic color and level corrections. Here's what I got:


Ahem..


While I've got you here I have some questions about basic electrical inconsistencies with your specifications of the TBL-813.

To start, you need to be testing amperage at 13.5 volts- what is provided by the vehicles alternator. Second, who's ballasts and bulbs are you using? Are they Digital or Analog? What bulb base?

Unless they are an OSRAM or Phillips product (which incidentally are only available for sale to Automobile Manufacturers and from junkyards), you are ripping your customers off, as Chinese plug and play kits only cost about $28 from a distributor. That and the Chinese kits are extremely low quality.

Stop misleading consumers, and take your shameless advertising somewhere else. Like your own website.

Dude, what in the **** is wrong with you? You've posted these pictures in at least 5 threads so far. None of us want to see your ****ty Halogen lights in every goddamn thread.

you've posted the same amount of pictures as I have!! I don't know what your pproblem is?! We both have the same lights.. granted yours are way cooler becuase you've got the HID kits.. but you can't bitch at me for posting in threads that are related to the topic when you yourself have posted pics in multiple threads as well!

No, I've posted pictures in related threads over the course of Months. You've spammed yours topics completely unrelated, while totally ignoring the original post over the course of a couple of hours.

Two very very different circumstances.

I agree with Viper, theres no need to keep posting all of those pics of your lights. They look REALLY good iwhitne, so take one of those and make it your sig. Just dont need 6 pics in every thread on here of them. Nice work on the install iwhitne!!!
