Hampton Roads Club Mini

I installed my Angel Eyes lights and driving lights yesterday.  Took all day.  The Angel Eyes were the easy part.  As for the driving lights, I had to drill quite a few holes in the bumper and mounting brackets.  The cool thing is outer bracket is behind the license plate.  You can hardly see it.

I still have to do the wiring for the driving lights, though.  Not sure how I will get them hooked up just yet.  I'm gonna see if I can use the relay button setup from my old '02 MCS.  Otherwise, I will just use the one that came in the kit.

All done!   

In my research, I was reminded the daytime running lights are a low-power version of the high beams.  Had I used that circuit, the lights could be turned on without even using parking lights (provided the switch was turned on).  As a result, I had to wire the driving lights directly to the battery (which is about the same thing, except I am bypassing the ignition circuit).  The panel below the steering wheel was two-layer hollow plastic.  Thankfully, they had a provision for the OEM driving light switch (like the '02 MCS had).  I just drilled that out and put the switch there.
