2014-15 Equinox Changing Headlight Bulbs to Philips CrystalVision Ultra

 I purchased some Philips CrystalVision Ultra bulbs to get a little whiter and brighter light than the stock bulbs. As many of you know, the 2015 and I believe some or all 2014 Chevy Equinox models no longer have that convenient removable headlight port hole on the front inner plastic fender liner. As a result, you have to loosen or remove quite a few fasteners in order to get at the headligh...

CT6-V Valeo backup light upgrade

 Greetings all!  I’m sure that some of you have always wondered why the reverse light on our 2019+ vehicles aren’t LEDs like the successors are when it appears that they are the same size.  Well after much consideration, I have decided to see if the CT5 lights will be a proper fit for our vehicles. And drain enough juice to make sure no electrical faults are found.  Will be...

Tonight's Refinement Introduction: Side Markers

 These are standard equipment in the US, but of course, they aren't included in the Japanese versions.  I had been considering these for about a year and a half, but they were incredibly hard to find. Eventually, MOONTECH sourced them from the US for me.  *Note: MOONTECH’s president, Taguchi-san, frequently travels abroad and has strong overseas connections, which is a significant...

Did some headlamp sanding…

 One of the other issues I had with my Acadia was the tops of the headlamps were oxidizing and developed cracks. We all know GM replacements are expensive, especially the HID versions which is what I have. Aftermarket replacements are $600 a pair, still not cheap. I decided to to sand them and ceramic coat them with the Griot’s ceramic headlamp restoration kit. I started off with my own sandp...

Highline Taillights

 I had OEM Blackline Taillights on my previous B9 S4 and loved the ECE style amber only sweeping taillights without the brake lights blinking as well. This mod for me was a no brainer and now the car looks awesome!

Clear headlights for Flex

 Got some new chrome/“clear” headlights for the Flex this holiday and dove into swapping the OEMs out this morning. Had to do some filing on the driver headlight to get the low/high beam bulb to go in and some on the plug for the marker on the passenger headlight to get the plug to seat well. Blew two of the turn signal bulbs testing everything out.  Going to look into some 6000k cool w...

How-To: Corner marker light as a turn signal

 As written, this mod ONLY works with incandescent bulbs, see the very bottom of the page for the changes needed to make an LED work. It's a little more complicated and not required for stock glass bulbs like what I have.  I was in a fender bender recently where having a corner mounted turn signal indicator may have saved the day, so I decided to knock it out the day after. This modific...

Flashing Brake Light Mod

 Just installed a flashing brake light module on my 2023 RS (LED lights). Only attached it to the upper (3rd) brake light. I used the x-1 module from timers.shop since it has a timeout/lockout feature and wouldn't keep annoying drivers in heavy traffic.  1. Programmed the X-1 module on my bench according to my preferences.  2. Removed plastic trim panel at the inside top of the re...

Venza Fog Lights - Part Deux

 So finally got around to installing iJDMtoy.com Xenon White LED projector fog lights I've been sitting on for months. One of my original aftermarket fog lights went to about half brightness after about two years of use. Ended up pulling off the entire front bumper, which made the replacement of the lights and the addition of the vent lights super easy.  So as far as the projector light...
