Met Office: Weather

 

thanks mate.....

Its dry today.... lets see what time I finish wk

 

I'll have my on tomorrow. Mr Weather man says SUN

Just hope my friendly MOT garage can fit me in once everything is finally fitted.

 

its a beautiful day...good luck getting them done

 

OMG..... On the CAR and they are the NUTS

Also got the thumbs up from MR MOT Oh yeah, Mr fellow Scooby driver at the MOT Station - Their Priceless

my mobi aint up to taking pics at night - will try and borrow a digicam tomorrow.....

For everyone with HID kits

 

pics....you tease

 

I'm dying here. You build up all that anticipation and you say your camera phone can't take night pics...come on you can do better than that, can't you?

 

OK boys

Sorry for the bad quality



The Angle Eyes




The money shot


These pics were taken on the Nokia.

Will definately be taking a few (ok loads) of pics tomorrow for everyone to see what can be achieved

 

looks good...well what I can make out

 

in the daytime... (again using the mobile )





next..... Foglight covers and fitting my P1 Splitter. (oh yeah the grill will be going back on later today......

Should get my hands on a digicam tonight

 

if you get chance you reckon you could post up a step-by-step how-to.......

 

No problems mate....its in progress.

 

Well i like my HIDs but that is by far a better option it looks almost original fit

I would be interested in a step by step aswell and also maybe a price list of the parts used and where they came from. Or why not just make about another 100 pairs and sell them on here

Well done

 

Totally agree they look spot on. Might have to try this myself when you get the step by step up.

Or whats the chance of us tempting you into making some more sets for us?

 

i'd buy a pair

 

looking good...looking forward to seeing some high res pics

I wonder if you could run two smaller projectors...it may suit the shape of the lights even better than one...

 

Thanks everyone for the good comments.

In terms of the guide, its gonna take a bit of time as I'm planning to create a full PDF of the process

Trails mate - kinda busy tonight so will try and get some quality pics later in the week. I did think about doing two projectors, but they simply stuck out too much from the rear of the headlights.

Also after seeing RobK0000 efforts in the US decided it wasnt for me. (what do you think?)




Wanted larger projector lenses instead!

Got a set of mini projectors ready to find a new home in a 52 Reg Black Corsa (my daily run-a-about) - this will be my next project come the summer.

Trails/anyone else - got a driver side pre facelift headlight for anyone who wants to practice £10.

 

Great project.
I'm a bit confused.
So are you actually using HID's, or are you saying that just by changing to the Xenon lense things its much better?

 

Mate - I'm using Bi-Xenon OEM Projectors (my Scooby ones were from a JAG) - No HID Kits in sight.

 

Impressive.
But wouldn't it be better to use HID's in conjuction with these projectors?

 

They do have their own ballast so IMO no point getting a aftermarket HID Kit.

See them in the flesh and you couldnt imagine anything better. Should be attending SIDC meet at ACE Cafe.

 

Darms,

I see what you mean about the two projectors...bit tight. I would have the practice lamp but I've made a pact with myself to finish what i have already brought before any more purchases.

 

no worries mate....

give me a shout when ya ready and I'll give you as much help as I can.

 

when is the Ace meet, I'm Essex based so no great shakes to get there...

 

Date: Tuesday 22dn April 2008
Start: 6pm - 11:00pm

Just read the post on SIDC. Its 'Members' only.... Just my luck, my membership has expired

May do a fly by anyway....... keep ya posted mate.

 

darms you should apply for the patent on those and actually make some money from your efforts.

They look fantastic and are a credit to you.

 

Patents????? nice idea mate...

In terms of making some money on them, it would have to be quite a lot of £££££££. For example, our US conterparts charge in the region of $600 for modding your existing lights!

Lets not mention another Retrofit Project at the moment.... my Mrs has started to monitor is thread, too

 

you don't need to be a member to go to the cafe

 

True mate.....Lets hope its nice and dry. will confirm closer to the time.

Also a pair of HTAUTOS Foglight covers just arrived

 

you need to sort some pics out then
