    Looks good Bino. How the new light out put compared to it old setup?

    How's the cutoff with these projectors?

    +1, I'd like to see a good shot of the cutoffs.

    Light output should be no problem as they are HID. Hopefully, the reflector bowls can deal with the heat from being enclosed in the small confines of a foglight projector housing. Does the housing have some heatsink material or heat dissipating fins, etc?

    Now with 3 daily drivers to swap winter tires, it was time to upgrade to air! (Especially with tire shops getting more expensive and tendonitis making it harder do it with only hand tools.) It's an IR 2115QTiMAX with 300 lb. ft. in reverse and selectable forward force. It's very light (2.5 lb.), small, quiet and works OK with my 6 gal. pancake compressor set at 120 psi. The second of 4 force settings puts the lug nuts a bit under 76 lb. ft. and the torque wrench finishes the job. The 6 gal. tank is small, but it flows enough air to break the lugs loose, recover while jacking the car, remove the lugs, recover while swapping wheels & starting the lugs, tighten the lugs, and recover while lowering the car & torquing the lugs.

    I bought it on Amazon, as I had a gift card from Christmas. This is a 3/8" drive unit and I wish I would have bought the 1/2" unit (same size and power) because many stores don't carry 3/8" impact sockets (especially deep sockets in sizes above 3/4".) I ended up finding a 3/8" to 1/2" impact adaptor and a 1/2" drive 13/16" deep impact socket.

    Now the the Prius is done, I just have to wait to be sure winter is over to do the Ridgeline and my wife's Fit.
