That is rather nice, and the hood pins lend that old school look I really dig....

Their bi leds. Most of the power of hid, but much simpler and less amps than stock. Now that I spent a stupid amt of $ they'll probably come down in price.

They are dot approved. As bright as a new car. Much brighter than my 07 pickup. Thay have that cutoff line that keeps the light from shining in peoples eyes going the other way. Will get a night shot in a day or so.

I currently have a PO set up with no pop up lights, just 4 rectangular bulbs in a fixed cut out. Lighting at night is very poor, and not happy with the look. Interested in your set up, can you send details please. Thanks, Ken, Mebane, NC. 73 t top, 350, 4 spd..

Curious about the hood pins.
Hood releases as stock but pins need to be pulled first?
