Default Red Headlights (Infravision!)
I know this isn't any kind of special mod but I think it looks cool and wanted to share. I'm scared I am going to wake up at night and it's going to be staring at me...

It certainly is different, but aren't the headlights white (or a hint of blue) so you can see more easily ahead of you? white/blue has a higher intensity than red, so thats why.

Did you reverse the light kit or did you cut off and solder red LEDs to where the whites are supposed to be?

Oh, I wasn't going for realism or anything. Actually I was reading a book that had a horse in it with red eyes and that gave me the idea.

All I did was put the red LEDs up front.

i do believe he's going for a purely asthetic look with these.
in wich case i think it looks great. add one under that mean looking hood scoop and it would look amazing.

maybe they arent easily impressed ...maybe they are just being nice to a new person on the forum. maybe they are just showing appreciation for somebodies willingness to share. maybe they arent being a dickhead. yeah we know anybody with a light kit and flat black paint can do this , but you dont see us being the dick head and raining on somebodies parade. ive looked through your post...you have a habit of doing that.
