So far nobody flashing lights at me, but I don't want to blind people, so today I adjusted them down to match where the stock bulbs were. I'm near Seattle, and people here might be too passive aggressive to let me know. Either that or they're too used to people with purple HID bulbs in old Civics to think mine are a problem.
For anyone else looking for LED headlights, though, check out Macswfc's photo here-

Costs more, but looks like a cleaner upper cutoff. Possibly not as bright, probably more down to my lack of camera skills than anything else.

huh.. considering it's super easy to re-adjust on the GK, why not? keep us posted how you like it cause when i hop into my wife's GK the headlight illumination is only borderline acceptable with the higher aim it is set at right now. i want to get her brighter lights.
especially after driving my GTI/Golf-R with its bright headlights, i keep twisting the GK's headlight stalk thinking the lamps are off and driving on DRL's at night.. lol

Installed an auto dimming mirror with built in compass. Gentex 50-GENK5AM. Direct swap.

it was easy for me as I already have done the wiring for my dash cam and sound system to use for the mirror's wiring.

The Fogs are on, but the car is off.

How's the new GT? I've been wondering about it...not too many of my buddies play it, and I'm hesitating because I need a new steering wheel setup -_-

. I'm considering a dash cam in the near future - is the install straightforward?

Oh man, that looks so awesome! I bet it feels really nice. Love Buddy Club (had a bunch of their parts on my old car - quality stuff!).

At the moment I am actually trying to decide between Rota Grid or Slipstream wheels, and whether I should go with white or bronze for my aegean blue Fit.
