September 7, 200916 yr I just got done installing 4 lights to the roof of my ea81 toy.well,um the lights are there,wiring is a whole 'nother story.Best part is I got the lights at pull and save for $10 for all four.Normally they retail at $40 each I will get some pics tommarow after they are powered by a switched relay...I would do them today but I have some homework that must get done before midnight tonight...
September 7, 200916 yr Make sure you mount them high enough to where they're useful. Haven't you done a 2.2 swap? Wiring lights is a bloody joke in comparison.
September 7, 200916 yr Author I have done a 2.2 swap.just not on this car. Maybe I will also get around to installing my CB radio as well...I wonder if my antenna will be to tall,roof mounted 102" whip Edited September 7, 200916 yr by Uberoo
September 9, 200916 yr Author well,I was gonna take some pics of the lights lighting up the whole street, but my camera has other plans.The battery is dead on the camera so I will get that charged and can hopefully take pics tommarow.

September 10, 200916 yr Those are leaning pretty far into the warm spectrum. Are they that orange, in person ?? Swap the lamps out for something a little brighter, perhaps. There should be a Silverstar H3 lamp that will work. I know i found some for my oldschool driving lights, and what a difference. Though, you might want to work on getting the stock high beams in operating condition first
September 10, 200916 yr Nice, I think having more lights like that is more versatile. Mine are about equal in wattage, but only two lights. Does your single high beam work to compare the range with? If they're floods, you could angle the outer ones out for better side view, then swap the center bulbs with 100W or better.
September 10, 200916 yr Author Those are leaning pretty far into the warm spectrum.Are they that orange, in person ?? they are actaully very bright yellow, pretty close to white when you are actually looking at them in real life. I am not sure what kinda of lights they are.I got all four of them of a nissan at pull and save(I wanted its 33's but those might be a bit big on a subaru ) I do however know that the two outer lights have a clear lense with no ribbing,and the two inners have clear lenses with ribbing.So I am guessing that the outers are driving lamps and the inners are flood lights or fog lamps?I dunno.. as for the stock high beam , um I was fitting a legacy radiator to the beast and that light didn't want to cooperate.So I ripped it out of the car and threw it in the dirt.It didnt survive....I will probally get another eventually..
September 17, 200916 yr Why don't you just embed the pics? I like the setup, probably what I'll do on mine.
