Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

The chevys are putting Cummins in their 2022 diesels?

Oops Duramax. IDK what I was thinking, I saw what looked like the Cummins logo on it but it’s the Carhartt logo. It was a Carhartt special edition. I recognized the logo and my brain went to Cummins. Hey, I’m old AF !

I have been putting off the quad retrofit for awhile partly because I wasn’t sure the Acme projectors I bought would fit in the low beam location and clear the lens. If you look at the housings it seems the location where they mount is further out than the high beam (upper) location and those Morimoto projectors barely touch the lens. Yesterday I found an original Depo headlight I had, baked it open and mounted an Acme in the (lower) low beam location. Fingers crossed.

I stuck the lens in place..looked good but I figured I’d better bake it into place. Success! I’m not sure if the Acme mini H1 is shorter than the Morimoto mini H1’s but there’s actually more clearance, maybe 1/4” to the lens.

Awesome! Can’t wait to see these when they’re done!

Well I forgot about the shrouds so I had to do it again. This time they are exactly like the Morimotos. They barely fit, might be touching the lens too but they do fit.

Did you smack it to make it fit ? I heard that works
