Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

I bet that new exhaust sounds like crap and your speaker brackets are crooked. You should just send all that crap to me. :P
Seriously though brother, time for a new exhaust video.

How do you like the Billet Specialties pedals? Any issue with installation? Mine arrived today and I'm going to install them on Friday. Just wondering if its pretty straightforward or not. Nice looking ride!!!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Absolutely LOVE your truck.
I noticed you upgraded your headlights to LED, can you provide me with any info on them? Are they a direct pug in or do I need to replace wiring harnesses trim rings, ect...
Do you have the model/Part number, cost and best place to purchase them?

I hate the stock headlights on my '79.

Thank you for any info!

Mark

Thank you!! Yes I did change them got the JW Speaker EVO 2. Theybare plug and play just like putting a old headlight in. But I also have on order a new release LED from Dapper Lighting. I like the looks of the Dapper better I am just curious about light output beam pattern cutoff things like that. JW a set will run you $500 or the Dapper having a pre order sale for $399. But I would never go back to a old style haedlight. Amazon for the JW headlights is the best price. Just type in Google JW Speaker EVO 2 of go to dapper lighting and look for the SEVEN. Anything else just ask.

Thanks a lot for the response.
I might wait to see how those LED's from Dapper lighting look on your truck before I pull the trigger on the EVO's. They look sweet!!

Thanks again!
