Taking baby steps...installed my m4 polargs into the drl's pretty happy with them...I have to wait till it turns dark to appreciate them a little better. the driver's side was a pain in the ARS!! but after being forearmed deep in engine crap and sweating like a maniac i got them on.....

Been there...Done that !

It is a real nice, cheap, somewhat easy mod. Congrats on your first step. Now don't tire yourself out to quickly, you must pace yourself with the mods .

Heh, same here. I ended up pulling off my bumper half-way

I just upgraded all my exterior aux. lighting to these new 1watt high power LED's. They look pretty nice

I did half of my interior lights, but I still need to finish the rest. It looks kinda weird right how with the door lights being LED and the rest of the car having the stock bulbs...lol

Does the Polarg M4 bulb come in only one size? I've seen 194 and 168? Which one for a 98' GS400.
