I agree 100%. It was definately worth the $49 IMO. Small price to pay for what is a definte improvement over stock.

To run on normal roads with other traffic? I think you would end up blinding everyone else like HID without projectors. You get better results with the lights higher facing down, like the off roaders putting them above the cabbin.

Found out that the UR lower front brace neatly blocks access to the rearmost of the 2 bolts that hold the torque arm to the engine

Looks like I'll be running this track day with the rubber mount

Got mine out with a spanner, just.

I tried every spanner and socket I had and nothing would give me enough movement

I'll make myself a 3/8" socket adapter by grinding flats on the shaft of a M10 bolt with 16mm or 17mm head but by the time I found the problem today, I CBF'd
