Rigid Industries Dually D2s Installed

If you're an offroader, you know about these lights. I'm too poor for a full blown HID retrofit...these were the next best option. I took the stock fog lights out and mounted these in their place. They fit PERFECT, I got lucky. All I had to do was dremel a right angle into a part of the fog light housing so I could mount the d2 bracket flush in it. Honestly the most difficult part was getting to the fog lights...especially on the driver side because of the windshield wiper fluid.

Anyway here's a quick couple pictures I snapped just now.

What do the beams look like from inside the car and projected on a wall?

hey sean thanks for the question...

If you can imagine HID lights, but without the cut off or warm up time, and in a more intense white color, and with better spill over to the sides (great for spotting deer)...that's what these lights look like from inside the car.

These lights completely drown out my low beams to the point where I could leave them off completely and only have these on and be just fine.

I'll have to take a picture of a wall projection...

Hey Sean I made a detailed thread of how I mounted this, complete with beam patterns (thought I'm only about 5 feet away)
