Truck looks great! Hill climb was awesome!

Thanks Cacattack!

Yeah I am not sure if it's a Montero issue. I think it's a fail safe. But I am not sure if they make another tank with more baffles to keep the gas around the pump.

HIDs! Headlights @ 8000k and Fogs @ 6000k. Plug and play eBay kits. Headlights have been installed for almost a year. No issues. Fog HIDs installed last week. I love them. Very bright.

Hella 500 Spot Lights.

Lights look good I like the color temp! How's the glare of the headlights? Any opposing traffic flash their highbeams at you? Been contemplating a pnp hid kit, but may wait to install a proper projector in my 2.5.

Thank you sir. The headlights are pretty blue while driving. That's why I decided to do the fogs in a whiter color. But I've only had a few people flash at me. But then I just flash them back to show that it's the low bean not high. Ha ha. The kits cheaper than buying a set of factory halogen bulbs. $30 shipped.

Lighting looks real good! Could you tell me where you got them? Thanks in advance!

 

[Djbenny]

Yeah the headlights I got on eBay. And the fog lights from Amazon. Only because I had a gift card.

That's the brand I have used for all my vehicles. No issues and very slim fit so you can put almost anywhere. For the headlights I used the double-sided tape it came with and attached them to the flat spot on the back of the headlight housing. They have stayed there since installation.

Thank you!

No problem. Install was straight forward. If you have any other question don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks djbenny, do you know why you stalled btw? I stalled 3 times total now going up steep inclines and I read that it happens more on manual transmissions ... And I know it does happen but it's annoying and I'm wondering if this could be fixed?

Oh lol missed that post! Thanks again!

You know from that angle it doesn't look that steep.. Lol haha jk!

Hey my engine stalls too on very steep hills.. Is this a Montero thing? Is it problematic? If so, how could I get this fixed?

Were you guys climbing steeper grades than this guy?

Wow, great find! I constantly look for good Montero/pajero videos!

I went not that steep, that's why I was confused why I stalled.

 

[Djbenny]

The hill I climbed was steeper.
