Reverse HID lights...

Z4-VILLA · 12-01-2011, 09:14 PM

Because this mod activates whenever you put it in reverse, I believe it qualifies as I drivetrain mod. :-)

Did you upgrade the wiring or anything to the HID ballast? That's alot of draw off of small wires IMO

Too bad the sound is so distorted in the vid.

ShakyDog · 12-06-2011, 09:00 AM

Are they going to melt the plastic?

Z4-VILLA · 12-06-2011, 02:02 PM

ZStig · 12-06-2011, 03:26 PM

Are 2 threads really necessary for this? We're all more interested in your hardtop install

Jumbosock · 12-06-2011, 06:59 PM

Maybe it was a worker who was trying to baby it?? Or maybe he just wanted to rev it??

Z4-VILLA · 12-06-2011, 08:37 PM

Mirko · 12-06-2011, 09:01 PM

Aren't they too bright so as to confuse any motorists into thinking there is an oncoming car instead of a car reversing. How does it look at night, any pictures or video?
