Just ordered these for my front drive/signal light.
I really hate the yellow halogen that stay on all the time in daylight 90+ deg.

That parking garage looks like some of the roads here in the Northeast :smt005

[geckoboy86]

Loving the 6th gen!

[im2c0ol]

The roads around here 3-5x worse than you see, that's why I don't dare lower my car.

Oh, wow, those rear spacers really make a difference.

Feedback:
It throw a straight beam like a low voltage highbeam, the throw is probably farther than stock, helps see the signs up to 100'+ but loosing the width. I'm happy with the results, better and brighter than I expected. It just through the optic off otherwise it should be much brighter.

Perfect fit, you can probably park the car one side on the curve for easy access to it.
This is a must mod on top of your list! I can notice the different just rolling out of my drive way.
Ride with much more confident now, it feels like a different car.

The metal part are being reused, you'll only need three parts to complete this upgrade which is two bushing, one rear sway bar.
