Right, but when mine is done fading you can see its still just barely on. I got 2 arrays that I tried and both do it.

 

Ah! I misunderstood your question. No, mine doesn't stay on, not even a dim glow. When the time delay expires, it goes out completely.

 

2 step detailing.. to maintain its freshness car is only 3mos old

 

Installed Osram Nightbreakers, much better than stock in pattern, brightness and color, but I think I need to adjust the headlight aim a little bit higher, the solid beam is hitting the ground a bit close, will be doing that tonight.

Installed cargo net, cleaned K&N, oil change, tire rotation, routine stuff.

All in preparation for a trip up the coast w/ my wife for my b-day, she knows I love my driving so is insisting I take Pacific Coast Highway

Still have some Hella horns to install, wiring all soldered up, just need to stop being lazy and put them in

 

Sounds good! You'll love the Supertones! Did you find the nightbreakers locally or did you have to order them?

 

Got the Nightbreakers on Amazon after reading some nice reviews. I've tried Silverstars and most of the other locally available higher output bulbs on previous cars so I thought i'd give these a try. I was happy they were't "bluish" at all, just much whiter.

 

I have the same problem, it'll have a very faint glow after it fades off. No solution yet, I just kind of lived with it and leave it off unless I have people sitting in the back

 

I liked my Osram +50s until recently when one burned out. Looking to get a replacement set of something, and these look pretty cool. The slightly whiter light would match up with my led fogs better.

Does it seem like there is an improvement over stock? With the +50 Rangepower models, the light was not changed in color at all from stock, but was just brighter. The beam pattern seemed more directed/focused, but that's probably just the housing trying to reflect light farther than it is designed for. When I switched back to the regular bulbs, it was as if I could see the ground in front of the car better. That's strange, you noticed a different spread on the beam pattern too.

 

Drew, Where in vermont are you and which dealer? Shearer, Automaster? How'd you survive the dump of snow we got last week?

I'm in the rutland Area

Yes, there's an improvement over stock but they didn't really shine (pun intended) until I adjusted the aim higher. The beam is pretty intensely focused like you said and the "cutoff" is pretty clear, not HID of course but solid enough. I just played with the aim until it was low enough not to blind other drivers and high enough to show a good pattern in front of the car.

I have a feeling my stock lamps were on their way out though, so my opinion vs. stock lamps might be a little skewed. The whiter light is great in itself, looks a little classier and works better IMO. We'll see how annoying it will be in fog...

 

WOOOO thank you Evasive Motor Sports! I can't wait to put these on.

 

Did my first oil change at 6,300 miles. $69.99 for the usual dealership package. The dealership which I purchased the Fit from won't honor the free oil change they promised, so I'm paying $69.99 for an oil change at another dealership. And I got new air spencer for my car =D Love the smell.

 

I redid the wiring on my supertones today. Just used electrical tape when I first installed them and had a couple twist splices on there. Used actual heat shrink tubing and some in line splices this time to do it up right.

 

I really recommend the harness from sickspeed. They work perfect. All plug and play.

 

Charged up the battery after discovering my kid turned all the lights on right before we left on vacation. Hopefully the battery will recover; I didn't expect him to break the car until after he turned 3 at least.

 

Well I've got it all wired legit now with the relay and everything so don't really need the harness.

 

Cool. Well I do recommend it to anyone else planing on adding supertones.

 

i think it's because you're at 6300 miles, it was noted on mine that the free oil change is only good for the first 5000 miles or 3 months
