Indy newbie

Hi all, my name is Jim and I recently bought a 2006 roadster LTD. and enjoy it tremendously. There are a few things to fix and work on but it was in pretty good condition. How to learn from everyone’s posts.

Hi Jim, I'm just up the road in Lafayette;. What color is your roadster? Got any photos? I'm fairly new as well as I have only had mine for about two months. Fun cars to drive for sure.

My Crossfire is a maroon color with a black cloth top. My wife and I are taking our first week trip in it soon. I put new LED headlights In yesterday. Still need to do a little adjustment. I have a friend here in Indy who also recently bought a 2005 coupe.

What I bought was from “headlightexperts.com”. I got 2 sets of “H7 LED CONVERSION KIT” normally $209.99 on sale for $99.99/set. Will be better when I can get them aimed correctly. I can see better and further with high beams on.

Re: Indy newbie

JDPROADSTER,

I'd be interested in pictures of these installed , say against your garage door. Ideally, take pics of the stock setup first, then with these LEDs' installed.

Thanks in advance!
regards,
