Oh, the horror...
Fyi late 90's, 97 I think Canada made DRLs mandatory and GM in particular left it in most if not all us models.
I put the Spyder lamps in my burb last November looks like the same ones you have. I pulled the grill and used the new buckets and there was enough adjustment in the bolt holes to get the grill back on. The right light sticks past the grill a 1/4" but over all I like them. Gonna try to raise the beam a bit more since I've had my wife follow as I was in the car and they can go up more with out to much glare.
thanks for joining the conversation.....cirrus as in the plane?
ok, it seems there are fitment issues on these lights......but not on all of them.....perhaps it does indeed have to do with QC in that tiawaneese factory.....were they made on a Monday or Friday as opposed to a Wednesday? just jokin, i doubt they have days off.
what's your take on the beam pattern and cut-off in real road experience? i know the "garage door test" will show a decent pattern pretty well, but nothing like being on a dark twisty road at night.
and yup.....correct aiming of headlights is paramount in determining the effectiveness of the product.
i've read that some folks just pop the lamp buckets out of the assembly and install them in the stock one.....did you install yours as a complete unit or swap out lamps?
just went back and re-read your post.
i'm going to do a close up check on the units as compared to stock......maybe they fit better as they come out the box......i'm curious as i'm now aware of these issues. some people have had to sand or machine down the actual bucket to get them to fit the grill opening.
time will tell.
