Looks very much like a Porsche Boxster with those lights. Top work!
Looks a lot better than a boster
I’m really happy to see you working on this car again.
Fantastic MR 2 very nice body kit &,colors great job👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
As soon as I started watching this video I’ve decided I’ve got to redo my mr2’s headlights lol time to switch to the facelift headlights! Good idea on the chrome rings, those look amazing! Great job once again Spyderlee!
Ouch they’re a lot more expensive than I would’ve thought and I’d still have to take them all apart. Any advice on where to find used ones?
Facebook mr2 groups are the best price for second hand. Or email dick on mr2roadsterrecycling@gmail.com
That's one beautiful MR2! Nice video. Easy to follow. Subscribed.
My workshop has never looked so clean!😅
lol that video must have been on a good day then!
@SpyderLEE you're not wrong! Great video though mate.
Thumbs up bro!! You've given the spyder community yet another awesome improvement for our list of things to be done :)
Keep'm coming
Literally perfect timing. I have just removed my headlights as I need to clean and paint the insides!!
Thank you very much
Nice touch Lee. Thanks for sharing. Keep them coming!
Looks awesome, but tbf I think you’ll get some fine marks in the lights after painting them black.
The plastic from headlights is black anyway and all you have to do is strip the chrome, degreaser will get rid in no time and it looks great. Good job though man!
I like how you show the end result first, so glad I found your channel!
Yeah I always find myself skipping to the end first to see if it’s worth watching. Thought I’d save the trouble
@@SpyderLEE good man, subbed for more!
There's nothing like good lights, with you all the way mate...
That's one CLEAN spyder! Following, maybe one day my Fastback Fiero and the MR2 can go for a cruise
The new headlights look the bizz. Been thinking about purchasing a mr2 and now I'm sold. Subscribed
Mental lightss!!! Great job!! As you indicate oven 150 degrees 15mins, isnt it? I do not want to meld them😂😂😂Cheers mate
They really are awesome! Great work!
Impressed with your whole car, great job
Same I stumbled here and I’m very impressed. Great job mate. Subscribed!!!👍
Very cool! Thank you for sharing!
Noticed that the same hardware is on the Celica light assemblies, just in a different shaped house. Brought back the memories of Iwo Jima, fighting to get those cloudy oem lights off and the aftermarket ones on.
That’s the problem with the mr2, nobody seems to do aftermarket ones.
I can imagine, for example Celica lights aren't very perfect even an oem quality build. I guess since it's such an old vehicle the design is skewed, built is better than bought though. Also it looks as though Toyota decided to design both cars to have the front bumper removed for light repair, can't even touch the fog lamps on the Celica without ripping it off.
I’ve fancied getting a celica a few times and do a widebody rocket bunny style. But I’m struggling for room. Need to get a unit or something
I'm not much of a body kit person, I'm more into performance of the car usually because the stock design is okay for me.
I've had the idea of having GM's LFX in the Celica to make it fly, because it already moves my 4000lbs Impala 5.9 and 14.0 on paper; 2 tons ~ 1814.369 kilos, time may be different in UK. I only brag about that since not many US vehicles get those numbers completely stock, it's also slightly faster than a 5.7 Hemi Charger, and just as fast as the 1996 Impala SS, but the turbo Ford Interceptor Sedan is slightly faster than me.
I totally agree about headlights on the facelift models . I'm going to pay a garage to colorcode mine same as my red bodywork as i'm too scared to try and it myself .
Man, you brought back memories of my mr2. Did something similar, diy custom made halos. Long gone now...:'(
I'd struggle to not have the demon eye and the sidelights both on disco mode like all the time. Too funny
Lol 😂
Just found your channel, and currently binge watching the mr2 to date.... good work mate. Keep them coming
Cheers dude 👍
Mr. T on his Sunday's best. 😂
Excellent..Looks wicked..👍
Your videos are brilliant mate!! You have a magic sense of humour and awesome skills 👍👍😂😂
Thanks 😎
Thanks for this video I'm in the middle of finishing off replacing a lens 🏁🏁🏁🏁
Gorgeous looks great!!
I like your style of modification, and very nice tutorial video!
Sign over the garage entrance...."WARNING!! ...genius at work"...car's looking better every time Sl. Keep em coming m8....cheers👍👍🍻
😎👍
Cool Idea!! Look's Awesome!
Just stumbled upon your channel , love your stuff and I really love your MR2 good work with those lights , inspirational stuff , New sub here
Cheers 😎
Looks great!
Looks great mate! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
👍😎
I love this MR2.
Looks great
Thanks 👍
You just got a new subscriber, mate. Awesome job. Cheers.
Spyder lee I have an 03 mr2 live in the US, just wondering if u can make custom brand new headlights and taillights like yours?
I wouldn’t have time mate sorry 😐
Bummer. It was worth a try 😅
You're a fookin genius!!
Looks great man 👌👌
I've seen a few where the chrome part was painted the color of the car. I'm not sure if I'd do that way or not. But I agree that chrome is horrendous.
What do you use to clean some of the inside bits of the headlight before final assembly? I have some JDM lights I need to open open and they have some smudges I need to clean on the inside.
Beautiful results! How did you get your Spyder to Tatuine?
Lol. Looks like it in the background. I found a can of label remover lying around. It took the sticky bits straight off. 👍
Minted work my man👍
THanks 🤘
hi where to buy new headlight covers from? thanks!
You sure are a clever bloke, great inspiration mate cheer fellow MR 2 owner
Damn, gotta say...Side step here, E36 headlights are a PITA to do! Awesome vid BTW!
Cheers, these actually came apart really easy.
The projector on the new lights is actually the low beam. It is halogen as well. It was a mistake to mount the LED to the back of the projector shield. That is the HOTTEST part of a projector. That LED will melt/fail and is actually a fire hazard. Also the glue you used has disturbed the smooth edge of the shield, which will actually project onto the wall/road.
Demon eyes are commonly mounted out of the way of the beam, so that the LED will not be harmed by the excessive heat put out by the bulb.
The next time you have a halogen projector, turn it on and place your finger where you mounted that LED..you’ll quickly pull your finger out in a burning pain. I’ve even seen paper/cardboard start smoking by placing it in that location.
Please consider this! I don’t want your car to catch on fire.
That being said, this was a great informative video. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, I said it the wrong way around.
This is the best mr2 in this gen I've ever seen
I’m trying to make them cool. They have a bad rep 😂
@@SpyderLEE I know! It's all about headlights I believe but you did a great job with this bad boy and I'm concidering getting one in the future. I've got an Mx5 now but I'll probably want to get something different in some time
Hi Lee,
Do you know if there is anywhere to buy the headlight covers?
Hi. I think you can but not sure where from
The facelift looks great. MR2 is awesome. Does this take a long time to do in total?
No, a couple of hours. Took me longer because I was filming everything
Well done! Respekt! 👍
Nice MR2...I have a mint 2004 with 35,000 miles with factory hardtop.
Nice 👍😁
Have you thought of putting on a hardtop?
Could be the same color as the hood and would really tie the car together
Yep on the list, want to get one this year. Waiting for summer for all the cheap ones to appear
@@SpyderLEE Great to hear!
Spyder Lee you’re mods are the best!😍
Not sure about the best. But I definitely try to keep them the cheapest. I’m too poor for good ones 😞
Another great mod 👍
Car is looking fkn awesome
Cheers. I’m really liking it at the minute.
Love the car, you have done some great work on it. I know the "kit" is from Luxurypars but how long ago did you order and do you know if they are still active?
I bought the kit 3 years ago and I bought it second hand. But yes they are still active, with this kit and some even sexier ones!
Any problems with condensation? Didn’t look like you used any butyl to seal them.
Seem to be ok so far. There was loads still left on the lamp and lens from splitting. The oven softened it to seal it back together
hi Lee, could you help me to find new headlight transparents covers as mine have faded on my MR ? thanks a lot :)
just found your channel and im loving it. question do you do your own editing? i really like the style.
Cheers, yeah I do it myself 👍
@@SpyderLEE i look forward to seeing more :)
That is a beautiful car.
8100 subs +1 congratulations, I’m a new subscriber keep it up!!
Cheers 😀
love your car bros seriously mad rig
Cheers dude 👍
Good morning mr spyder lee. Is it possible for a customer to send you the brake lights and have you worked on it just like what you did on yours. Of course with payment that is accordingly.
I love your MR2 man! When I finish my Civic we’re going to have to Battle! 😎
Ooh ecky thump its a Mister Two
A bit OTT for my taste but everyone is different and I love the work that went into this, so, well done!
Lee were did you get both the colour changing sets from I need some in my life
From eBay mate but there are some very similar linked in the description 👍
It is the training LED which was popular in Japan of this me 20 years ago. It is Japanese soup stock to have made LED. It is Audi to have cribbed it quickly.
Bring back neons 😂👍 old school
You sir got yourself a new sub!! Makes me really want 1...... But parts are so scarse (Canada) The only thing holding me back.
Check out midshipgarage. They have a good selection of stuff. Based in the US
lights look good, you should sell the reg to a Honda Accord owner "ATR"
Nice job Mr T :)
😎
New sub! Love ya Style!
Cool video
I like sporty japanese car still👍👍👍👍👏👏👏 thank you
RICER detected
Lol 😂
You should try some g3 cutting compound or toothpaste on cloudy plastic lenses. Also for sealer you should look into inotec sealer doesn't stay on your hands for day's.
How long does the inotec sealer last?
@@speedfreek7627 for ever great product, its also paintable when it's still drying, they also do a sealer that once you've applied it you can start to fill with water ie swimming pool and won't leak. The topfix they sell is great also say you've broken a bumper clip/headlamp screw hole by removing incorrectly you can put a lump of topfix then screw the bolt in once dry unscrew and before you know it you have a new mounting that's threaded. Hope this makes sense. It is a trade product so you might need to purchase it online. www.innotecworld.com/products/repair.php
So it wont have water steam inside the headlight cover i want to change on my bmw the headlight cover its scratched and all that but im afraid getting water and steam inside ..
Mine still had loads of the black sticky stuff still on the back and lens so sealed it back up again. But you can buy it to put a bead round before you stick it back together. Can’t remember what it’s called though. Turns to liquid with heat
I see dripping
Lol shhh. 😂
Bigger Garage ?
I've seen a few spider headlight mods, and I think you have configured two of the best headlight arrangements I've seen. Your latest version is good, but I'll be honest I like the look of your previous version better.
Iirc, you put a facelifted projector in the middle of the older set up, correct? Anyway, that's what I'm aiming to do, is that something you would not recommend? (I can hit spyderchat for the wiring stuff if I do it...I don't care about the complexity, I just think it's a little bit more of a simple and cleaner look)
Yeah I prefer the projector lamps more. But I’m trying to be more legal friendly. It’s and attention magnet and straight through exhausts and aftermarket projectors are frowned upon 😂
What grit sand paper did you use?
800
@@SpyderLEE thank you. I presume it doesnt decrease the beam of light?
I wouldn’t have thought so, that bits more for styling than function. It doesn’t affect the actual light reflector
😁
Subbed 💪🏻💪🏻 l9ve the content
1:39 Are those paint/clear runs??? 😂😂
Lol shhh 😂
Isn't the Low beam the Projector Lens? You said they were Highs
No, the projectors are the high beam. The normal big round lights are the lows
@@SpyderLEE Hmm thats weird all other cars are opposite 🤔
Are these lights road legal and will pass mot
The colours can be turned off. They are just stock lights without the colour
How's the lights at night?
Same as stock lights so far. Need some better bulbs.
Why haven’t I found your channel sooner????
I was waiting through the whole video to see all around the car and you showed it at the end when those stupid pop up videos show and I couldn’t see the car.
how cool would it be if he got the whole entire body kid in impregnated carbon fiber, it would save soooo much weight. then a deisel 4 banger with twin turbos.. hell yea
That sounds damm awesome 😁.... and expensive 😞
yea very true
Lee u r unbelievable... man give me it old heads
I need them in Dubai dude
I'll text u on Facebook lol
U always do a great job and u bringing mrs alive again
Thanks 👍. Old lights are in the rubbish dude. Not much left of them
Looks great. Headlights on the spyder are its biggest drawback in the looks department and you've found a great way to fix it well done again
No offence mate, but what a fucking video!
Great job mate 👍🏿👍🏿🇬🇧🇬🇧
Cheers 😀
Junge du bist krank aber sehr sehr geil 😎
0:43 WTH. REALLY!!!? why can u fit projectors in ypur car domt they prevent flashes of light on the other driver.
Uk law 😞. Projectors need to be self levelling and self cleaning.
In my honest opinion, I think a hard top would make this build even better :/
It’s on the to buy list 👍
@@SpyderLEE legend👍
Give me that car 😡
