      I have this tool (DeWalt 3/8 impact wrench) purchased when they came out couple of years ago. The first thing I did after I got it is tried on my Honda Odyssey lug bolts. It did NOT take them off when there was a swivel adapter in between. But it DID take off when I used the straight socket on it. It had to work at it for few (5-10) seconds but it did take it off. Frankly, it is NOT designed for that kind of work. It is a great tool to work under hood and under dash though. I did EGR cleanup and used it to take the upper intake manifold and throttle body off. It was breeze with this tool. I also recently used it to drive lag bolts for installing flat panel wall mount. Either DeWalt is now shipping junk tool or this one is defective.

        Any particular reason that you put your complete trust in that cube? To ask it another way, how do you really know that it is actually accurate?

            As I said in my reply, both Odyssey and Element have the same H4 bulb but I am not sure if the inside the reflector, the shield is the same or not.

                I wish you had spent few minutes on showing the bulb holder that you put in the reflector. My Honda Odyssey already has a kind of baffle inside the reflector and I am not sure if that bulb holder can fit in there. Given that you do have a (broken?) Odyssey, could you confirm that the kit could have fit in your Odyssey too? It does have the same H4 system.

                To be very honest with you, I too was going to yell at you for doing this conversion but when I saw your final beam shot at the garage door, it looked quite acceptable. Looking at that, I am guessing that you are not blinding the on-coming traffic.

                Please provide periodical updates and definitely say something if you run in to trouble for example, if you have premature failure of ballast or bulb, please update your video.

                    What really surprised me is the fact that the torque converter unit was a sealed (welded?) unit and Eric had to use angle grinder to split it. Are all torque converter like that?

                        Can you STOP scrolling up and down? It is so bloody ANNOYING 🙁 Every page opens up and then scrolls down and then scrolls up. I am almost on the verge of giving up on this site. I can not be the only one who is frustrated by this obnoxious behaviour. Please STOP IT.

                        I am using Google Chrome my broswer and have not tried any other.
