    So it looks as if the lights no longer "pop-up", am I correct? I like this idea otherwise. Having a massive f-350 running a light bar behind me is absolutely obnoxious. I do believe it would help the safety in my small car if I had something like this.

    Is there not a way to fix them so you can flip up & down? Also did I miss the pix showing light out put? Thx

    I'm gonna put this mod up there with hid conversion kits. It's extremely annoying when cars have lights that are too bright. You are using what is essentially a flood or spot off road light for head lights.

    Like I said its a love hate kinda thing. Im not interested in spending $300 plus on a low profile kit. I couldn't stand how stock lights look.

    I havent posted a light out put picture yet. But I will. I also think you could modify the linkage and motor to work with the lights but it would take trial and error

    I bought a Rigid LED Light Bar from 4wheelonline. Ideally it was for my utv, but I thought of installing it on my Miata. The out come was almost the same with the pic. Out put beam was really impressive, but the disadvantage would be the flip on and off would be disabled.
