    My new Matchbox projectors from TRS.... its the only thing I have so far.
    I plan on using these as my new fog lights.... then doing mini's in the lo-beam spot.

    You know fog lights can only serve their purpose if they are lower than your headlights so they can shine light under the fog right?

    I really don't use my fog lights in the first place..... I am merely just using the fog light hookup to put HID's in these. The will create extra light when needed. I don't think i have ever actually had a problem with fog so i have never really thought about that. But also mustangs have theirs mounted high so i figured once again it shouldn't be much of an issue

    do you guys think I'm better off mounting these with the bolt and using the factory adjustments to align them.... or am i better off sinking them back in farther and manually adjusting them? What is the best way to get them to stay in place when i am test mounting them on the car (Jbweld, epoxy???)? Ultimately what is the best way to securely mount them to the reflector bowl?

    why Matchbox if you don't mind me asking? The mini's perform better. with all that work you're doing you should have done FX-Rs imo. That bondo job looks pretty cool though.

    Oh I'm sorry I missed that! That's what I get for scrolling straight to the bottom! Sounds like a good plan then!
