If I had them, that's the only time I'd use them.

I upgraded the bulbs in mine to SilverStar 893's ( 38Watts) and have them on day and night. That's the only way it rolls except when the high beams are switched on.

I had mine on the other night and got flashed. So I flashed my brights back at him. Seemed to satisfy the guy. Oh yeah, as we passed each other, I noticed he was a cop.

I just can't figure out how to adjust the left one. I know it's high and to the left, but for the life of me I can't find a nut to loosen. Guess it's time to break out the owners manual again.

Loosen the two small allen bolts and drop the turn signal.

Reach up inside with a 9/16" socket with a slot cut in it for the wires.

Loosen the nut. Adjust the light. Tighten the nut. Replace the blinker light. Replace and tighten the allen bolts.

The socket is about 45 bucks shipped from snap-on.

The allen bolts are a pain in the rear to get to. I had to take an allen wrench and shorten it. I used a stationary belt sander and some water to keep from over heating it.

The allen bolts are harder than the rest of the project.

Took longer to take off and replace the allen bolts than to set up the target and adjust the actual passing lights. Hours.
