Thanks Vic. Funny you should say that... a friend of mine said the same thing when I sent him the same pic. Great minds...

Well, they are a mix of different parts. The black tube and filter are from a K&N kit I bought for a 2016 Silverado/Sierra 2500HD (IIRC). That vehicle used the same MAF sensor as the van mine came from. But that kit didn't work as-is. The throttle body is different (the van is slightly smaller) and I had to cut up the tube and buy a couple more bends and couplers from Spectre to get it to work like I wanted. Eventually I'll have them welded together, but I'll have to pay someone to do it for me, so it'll be costly. This was the cheaper route to get it running sooner. I have way too much money in this cold air intake already. If I was to do it all over again, I would have skipped the K&N kit to begin with and just went to Spectre.

I've lit them up while it was in the garage, but that's it. I can't tell how they work at night, but so far, they're sure bright! I did go with the HID kit too though, so that helps with the brightness. I like how they look. Hopefully they light up the road well.
