    That stagger is exactly how it’s supposed to look

    • @BaptismOverland
      @BaptismOverland  8 місяців тому

      Yes. For DOT. And I've seen the stock 4Runner headlights produce the same effect against the wall. But on the ground I've never had lights do that. It's distracting. On the ground you can see the actual stagger in a defined line vs being spread out. I tried to shine it further to see if it'll go away but it doesn't

    I love your outro music. Do you need an anti-flash filter in there between the light and Jeep? I know JK's will flicker with LED bulbs. I believe we have similar Jeeps (2016 JKU). What gearing did you end up going with? And is your Jeep a 5 speed Auto?

    • @BaptismOverland
      @BaptismOverland  9 місяців тому

      Didn't need anti flash. I believe it's built into the lights but I've never needed it ever.
      My gearing is stock 3:21 and I wanna go to 4:56
      I drive a 6 speed manual

    How’s it going bro, I recently installed these thanks to your video! I am having trouble with one thing though. During the day, I just want the halos to be on but for some reason the headlight turns on as well. Any idea what it can be and how I can just have the circle halos running through the day?

    • @BaptismOverland
      @BaptismOverland  Місяць тому +1

      I wired just that one wire to my fog lights so that when you flick it to the fog light position it would turn those on (but then your fogs would be on too which I don't have anymore anyway). That's how I did it personally

    What is the true volt range. I thot I saw 9v-42v but have mot been able to find it again. I will be using it on a 24v system, so I just wanted to verify I'm in the range.

    • @BaptismOverland
      @BaptismOverland  Місяць тому

      I can find out. Unfortunately, not even 2 months after I put these on I ended up gettin headlights from KC and have been running those since. A lot of times these kind of lights don't publish a lot of the specs.

    I mistook uncle bob for bigfoot once...
    I stood frozen in the middle of the dark, eerie forest as my Jeeps headlights pierced through the dense fog. In that split second, I was certain I saw the familiar figure of my Uncle Bob, but as the fog cleared and reality revealed itself, my eyes widened in disbelief.
    Standing before me was not my Uncle Bob, but a towering, monstrous creature. It was Bigfoot, the legendary beast that had been the subject of numerous tales and sightings. With broad shoulders, matted fur, and piercing eyes, Bigfoot was unlike anything I had ever encountered. Fear and awe washed over me in equal measure.
    Bigfoot stared back at me, seemingly curious about this unexpected encounter. There was a strange intelligence in its eyes, as if it was contemplating its next move. Panic gripped me, and all I wanted to do was escape, but my feet were rooted to the spot. As the silence enveloped the forest, a realization struck me. This was no ordinary encounter. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to unravel the mysteries surrounding Bigfoot. Gathering my courage, I cautiously approached the creature, reminded of the countless stories that had captivated my imagination since childhood. To my amazement, Bigfoot did not lunge at me, nor did it show any signs of hostility. Instead, it seemed almost... friendly. It extended an enormous hand towards me, palm open, as a gesture of peace. Tentatively, I reached out and placed my hand on its massive palm. Suddenly, a flood of information washed over me. Images and emotions overwhelmed my senses, as if Bigfoot was communicating with me on a deeply profound level. It was a glimpse into the majestic creature's world, its struggles and its connection with the natural environment. With every passing second, my misconceptions about Bigfoot shattered. This was not the terrifying creature that people had feared. It was a misunderstood being, longing for companionship and understanding. As the encounter came to an end, Bigfoot slowly turned and vanished into the depths of the forest. I was left standing there, a mix of emotions swirling inside me. The skepticism that had defined my beliefs for so long had evaporated, replaced by a newfound appreciation for the unknown. From that moment on, I became an advocate for the existence of Bigfoot. I dedicated my life to unraveling the truth behind these elusive creatures, urging others to cast off their preconceived notions and embrace the untamed wonders that lay hidden in the world. Thinking I saw my Uncle Bob in my headlights had led me to an extraordinary encounter. Little did I know that the darkness of the forest held not just answers, but also the potential to reshape my perceptions and ignite a spark of curiosity that would burn bright for years to come.

      The wire connectors came with the lights. I tried to look but the wires aren't imprinted. If I had to guess MAYBE 12-14 awg but don't hold me to that. The DRL halo lights that was thinner. Prob around 16. Fuse adapter I had laying around but you can get those at any auto supply store
