You filed it down?
Nope just tin snips. It worked out fine. It doesnt wobble once its in place or anything. Have fun connecting the wires though. They dont give you alot of play so you feel like your gonna pull a wire out of place but you wont.

yeah dude - wtf. they need to lengthen the wires. Did you connect the relays?

I didn't might go back and have a buddy sodder more wire to install them, but not sure if it bugs me really.

I told you. If only they gave like an inch more of wire it would be perfect.

Also i didnt connect the relay. I like the faster flash rate. Where are your pics?

yeah it was snug.

As for the plate. I ended up not using the bracket I bought from them. I did a little prefab job and I think it looked pretty bad. Would be off center and touching the exhaust so, oh well. out 15 bucks.
So I removed the light section from my previous unit and tossed the plate back on.

Here are a few I snapped on my phone. I shoulda taken one with the lights off. I got the smoked one.

Thing looks great. Aside from the wire length i'm very very pleased.


Light sitting as is


Light with my buddy on brakes
