    New Car! Protective headlight sealant?

    Uggh.When I checked all lighting before bringing her home the brake lights looked small but I figured a big company like Toyota would at least obey the regs.They could have just skipped the seperate turn signals and met the regs.Wonder If we get rear ended I'd be found liable for not having...

    New Car! Protective headlight sealant?

    The old s-10 just had to go.Saturday picked up my new rav4 hybrid which I am really enjoying.Want to go proactive here and try to protect headlights from yellowing.Saw some 3m wipes that claims to be good for brand new lights. Anything better? Or should I just leave it alone?

    Here in Broward county we use gps for mobile systems and hardwired for firehouse/railroad.Even though the vast majority of our signals are equipped for preempt only a few fire departments have trucks fitted with transceivers.PD and mass transit are not.Emergency vehicles approaching an...

    Jeep lights and always-on high beams

    Usually it means that one (or both) of their low beams are burnt out.Rather then fix it they just drive around with high beams on till that burns out too.

    Add-on reverse light?

    Some great input here.Neither of these solutions work for me.Shame there's no street legal light in the Rigid type housing but there ya go.So I'll just pass for now.Thought about upgrading the stock bulbs but not much in the way of high performance 3057's.Thanks anyway.

    Add-on reverse light?

    For '95 s10 pickup.Got a steel bumper with hole for a hitch and factory trailering harness so install should be super easy if I can find the right pedestal mount light.Preferably under $150.All suggestions appreciated!

    I lost my tk20 -sob-

    Possibly the xp-g they're using has a lower VF then the older xp-e resulting in a higher current draw from the same driver without any other changes? It's all very confusing.Anyway if the performance is roughly the same I'll be happy. A friend to whom I had gifted a tk20 to some time ago has...

    I lost my tk20 -sob-

    Great advice all.The Fenix ld40 would be nice except for the battery carrier.If UK and Streamlight can make 4xaa plastic lights with no carrier why can't Fenix? Same for e40 plus I need a neutral tint and it may be that the e21 is no longer available in neutral tint.Great find,Stienke on the...

    DBS xr-e/sst-50 lop reflector with xg-p

    Got a great deal on a Dereelight DBSv2 over at the marketplace with intention to upgrade to sst-50.It came with xp-g r5 pill and smooth reflector. The Beam was just awful.Spot too small.Corona virtually non-existant due to the rings.Spill very wide but very dim.Absolutely unusable to me. I...
