im putting 3 lights on my bumper on the yota... not sure how i should set them up.... here is my crappy photoshop... let my know what you guys think..... all the lights are the same size, about the size of a hella 500, i jsut cant photoshop very well

I like the way they look better in pic 1. I'm not sure if the spread would be any better, just looks better imo.

forgot to mention, if i place the lights in configuration 1, the grill will stay in place, if i put the lights in configuration 2, the grill will be removed, this is the whole grill, including hte headlight surronds, its all 1 piece as this will block 95% of the airflow to the radiator if it were to stay in place. just thought of something else... what size drillbit will i need? they are standard hella 500 lights

Probably 1/2" bit. I like #1. also.

measure the bolt... its usually around a 3/8" i think

Yup I like the first one better

Heh....I voted again on Yotatech. No. 2! (Oh yeah, and go with cornering lamps on the outside and a pencil beam in the middle) (also what I posted on Yotatech :-D)

#2. I think it looks better evenly spaced.

Number 1 looks nice. Number 2 does too, but I wouldn't even hassle with the block of air to the radiator.

well just to refresh, it is set up like the first picture..... i will post pics when i get it all dialed in..... the ligths are there and running, but they arent in exactly the spot i want yet... they are close... the middle one goes out and up, with the ouside ones pointed towards the side of the car they are mounted on.... with my highbeams and the 3 spots on, all you see is 2 little blue dots of the highbeams, otehr than that, they completely render the regular highbeams almost useless

eventhough i said the grill would stay, i decided to jsut remove it... looks tougher that way pics will be up as soon as i can get some
