i dont have a picture but i have a good idea for them, you get like 55 watt or as high as you can get ones, and u mount them behind the flash 2 pass lences, u will need to find some short rectangular ones. thre isnt a lot of room since hte headlight sits right around there. then i had to cut the back of the flash to pass lence off to make enuf room to fit them. then u will want to buff your flash 2 pass lense to make them look clear again since most of the oxodize really bad after 15+ yrs.....

reason i say to get high watt ones cause they look cool like day time running lights!!

i have 55 watt ones and i drove by a cop chilling with radar gun looking to pull anyone over for anything, and it was like midnight and i have parking lights and my fog lights on and he didnt pull me over he thought they were my headlights!

they wont cut fog real well tho since they are up kind of high.... but they look cool and help somewhat...

I have some 55Watt ones in the FTPs I'll try to get some pics of it soon. Problem with them is the FTP lenses scatter a lot of the light. They aren't very effective as actual lights.
