New Christmas goodies...

Got some cruddy(i thought) HID's, PIAA 510's, Infinity Kappa door speakers (front n rear) and a Polk Audio PA660 4ch amp.

HIDS & PIAA fogs


Polk amp (yeah trucks a mess)


PIAA fogs


ran the wire for the fogs to the hot on the factory fog plug. works perfect. I'll go get some better pics at some point today...had it washed too...

Yes I agree that the truck is a mess.....Definately needs to be vacuumed and detailed.

I'm saving up for the PIAA fog light mod myself. You say the factory Fog light switch works like a champ? Did you have to use any additional relays, or just wire it directly into the factory harness?

the piaa lights come with a relay. you wire the power for the lights right to the battery and use the hot wire from the factory fogs to pull in the relay. that way when you turn on the fogs with the factory switch it sends power to the piaa relay, thus turning on the new lights. pretty simple to do, just time consuming organizing the wires to look clean. dont forget, if your cutting your factory harness off the use the hot, cut it far enough back that you can always splice it back into play and reverse your mod.

You're goig to be blinding oncoming drivers with those HID's in the factory reflector housings. Do a projector retrofit.

Where did you get the lower grille? I'm guessing that's a Roush grille in the pic?
