Performance Parts Zone

I bought a Yukon Denali a few weeks back to drive daily while my project car was being built and told myself that i was going to leave it alone.  Yeah Right!!  Ive already made several lists of parts for it so that im covered no matter what direction I take the truck.  Do I want performance?  Do I want a show vehicle? Or do i simply want a nice looking SUV to pull our trailer to the shows and relax in?  Whichever direction I choose, when i look at my list, i noticed that some parts carried across all of them.  One of these was the Piaa 40 Round Series Driving Lamps.  The factory fog lights just werent cutting it, and to be honest, we just dont get much fog here.  I wanted to upgrade to a high performance driving light that would compliment my headlights, but would also serve a purpose.  Over the weekend I pulled out the factory fogs and After a few hours of making the Piaa Lamps fit in the factory cut outs, i had the look i was going for.  Ironically, It got dark on me before i could wire them, so i had to wait until Sunday to knock that out.  So, Sunday night I jumped in the truck and took her out for a midnight cruise.  The difference was incredible.  I spent some time aiming them and when I was done, i had a light beam the started about 4 feet in front of the truck and went almost as far as my low beams.  I have to say that this was one of my favorite functional mods Ive ever performed.  If I can motivate myself one weekend, ill put a factory one back in and take pics of the difference.
