1st pic post+BHLM done but problem...

[physedfailure]

I figure there is no point to post pics of my stock taco Ive had since Feb. Everyone knows what they look like. So I didn't want to post untill it was actually worth posting pics. Had a busy holiday weekend. Cut the front flaps, did black headlight mod, put in my JDM yellow fogs, fog mod, scanguage, DF-Toy. Got a ton more planned just no time... MOTO METALS should be coming in this week wrapped with nitto terra graplers. Maybe by then I will figure out how to post some pics...I use snapfish.com to host pics maybe bout time to swictch

Only prob I had with BHLM is I put my new PIAA GT-X H4's in and now it seems like my high beams are my low beams and my low beams are my high beams. If i just turn my lights on the beam is all up in the trees but not that bright. When I switcht to HIGH beams the beams is straight ahead and twice as bright. If that makes sense. Anyone else have this problem?

Where did you get your JDM yellow fogs? Are they bulbs or the complete housings?

[physedfailure]

No they are just the bulbs

Looks good man, I am way to lazy to do my headlights.

Ditto I had all the stuff to do it about 1 month ago and finally needed a 3 day weekend to get all my stuff done where I had time to mess with the truck

I kinda know what I'm doing too. But I guess everyone prob says that. We all make mistakes though so i'll check it out

You can't put the bulbs in upside down, not H4's anyway. They only go in one way.

You also have to check the light its self. Ive seen a few that have the wattage set up opposite. instead of 55/65, it might be 65/55. Same thing happened to my friends 4runner, he had to pick up new lamps.
You can (just to double check) put your old lamps in and see if it works normal, if so you know its your new ones. If not, Im wondering if you put the lamp socket in upside down? or plugged in the lamp wrong as mentioned above?

+1...bulbs are possibly upside down or the reflector is facing wrong direction.
