    They look great, they are a whole lot of light for the money. I'm tossing up between these and a light bar, i think i will go the 9".

    Today i swapped out all my internal lights with LED's using a kit from Ebay. I done 4 doors, 2 map lights, interior light, rear cargo light, glove box light, and parkers. Really happy with them, much more light.

    I also installed the Ozbush Manual Maper, and prepped everything to add the EGR plate tomorrow if the postie has it. I also have the air horns to go in, fire extinguisher to mount and the 3" exhaust has just arrived.

    Yesterday she got her tyre rotation, balance and alignment. Caster does not look right. Still saving up for those new superpro upper arms to hopefully bring it back to spec (about 3 degrees positive).

    How one does the rear look to you guys? I don't think that left to right differences look right...

    cant remember where I got the fan from. Bought the fan years ago to fit to my other car but never got afound to it.

    I do think it is a 10 blade fan for a hilux. Something like this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Radiator-...0AAOSwgY9XegvF

    the fan is no different to the other fan in the way noise.

    My car doesnt overheat at all, but I had it, so why not. I dont think I will really find out how much of a difference it will make tho. My car always runs between 86-88 Ive only ever seen it his 92 once for a split second, that was towing my 1.3t boat up hill, with air con, 37* day

    Made a start yesterday

    Water pump was leaking.

    So, new pump, red Toyota coolant, cambelt, 10 blade fan
    What sort of fan is that?

    Awesome thank you.....

    They look great, did you have to etch prime them first? and what colour did you use? I think you did a bloody great job....

    I got some duplicolour plastic primer and some silver Supercheap acrylic and clear. The colour is a little lighter but it's hard to tell because of the angles.

    Be aware that the door trims have to come off completely in order to remove the plastic silver trims unless you want to risk it by masking them whilst still on the car.
