Picture-time, once again...

I decided to take an early morning drive this morning, to hunt for new locations for photoshoots. I ended up in the city of Anmore, White Pine beach, as well as in Belcarra Regional Park.

Here are the end results...I think that I've found a couple of new favourite spots! [:)]

Enjoy!!



<b>White Pine Beach:</b>




<b>Belcarra Regional Park:</b>







Finally, I had to do some light off-roading and across several train tracks to get to this spot, but I would have to say that these are my favourite out of the lot! [:)]

Nyshe pics Drew! Question...



In the pic above, I noticed how your bi-xenon headlight ambers are not noticeable from this angle. Is this achieved by just changing the stock amber turn signal bulbs to the LED turn signal bulbs that *** sells AND THEN modifying the stock wiring so that the turn signals only light up when you use it?

Yes, that's correct. The LED front turn signals...

Firstly, did you notice the reflection on the hood? Pretty good for a polish job (the First Finish proejcts from ***) from about 6 months ago, eh? [:)]

Yes, all I did was to swap to the LED turn signals from *** (1157 HyperAmbers) and then you clip the centre wire off to disable the parking lamps. Of course in my case, I also added the HyperWhite LED snakes as the city/parking lamps [:)]

Here is another angle and in the close-up you can see the LED snake lights:

Assuming that you would like the DVD-based MCS Nav. module, the cost of that inclusive of the DVD map disc is $1475 from *************. You'll also need a few odds and ends which will add around another $175 to the deal. Not too bad considering how much the Alpine aftermarket GPS units cost!

Re: Picture-time, once again...
