    :?: ok guys I need some info here...i recently heard locally of some LED headlights, do these even exist, and are they any good if so??? another thing is, im installing HIDs soon but ive heard that because the lights get so hot its not recommended to tint your headlights...is this true or myth??

    out of topic, but, does anyone know where i could get a CF exhaust cover for a descent price??thanks to all in advanced... :D

    Cf exhaust cover, RRM has one but they charge out the booty, as for the tint thing, sounds myth to me, as for led, ure prob heard bout the led mod that one person did

    They do exist but are illegal in Canada but im not sure in the states,
    I got this from a website that i purchase my LEDs from:

    "Surface Mount LEDs make this headlight bulb super bright. Bulbs are for show only and do not match the brightness of Halogen or HID headlight bulbs."

    also here a few pics of where I mounted the ballast brackets....

    on the passanger side I drilled a 1/4 hole so it would sit where its at...i found it to be the best spot even though I tried laying it down accros that top part but the wholes didnt really fall in place...

    this is the drivers side...as you can see, this is right below the battery...just right of the battery securing bar there's a hole and BINGO! it fit just right...

    hope this help a few if you dont know where to put your ballast...and this is a really simple mod so dont worry...i think the only tricky part is deactivating the drl's so it wont mess with your lights...it gets a flash effect if you dont deactivate them...ill make a vid tonight just to show what it does...ill do the mod to deactivate tomorrow...i am following the steps from http://www.mitsubishi-forums.com/t31985 ... d-39-s.htm
