  • @ElT1greVerde
    @ElT1greVerde 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm doing my lights right now, got a spare set for a good deal. The adjusters as well as the assembly they adjust are prone to cracking or breaking, so be mindful. Changing the color from black to even gunmetal or silver makes a huge difference in the look. You guys are so lucky they didn't stick that huge orange reflector in your housings like they did in the US.

    People also used to do angel eyes conversions to their headlights as DRL's/sidelights which looked very nice - might be another option for a video.

    Wealth of knowledge...
    Where can we buy those sequential indicator strips from?
    are there new lens available currently?
    I’m keen to use the heat gun to pull my lenses off and try painting the inside as well.
    As I’ve sanded and 2pac cleared the outside, and they look really good, but when you turn the lights on you can see heaps of cracks, like a cracked windshield pattern.
    Love your work man!
    Thanks for all the great ideas.

      In the uk you can get them from ebay, im guessing you will have either ebay or a similar place to get hold of them, if you search sequential indicators usually they come up. will be doing a splitting video very soon :)
      lenses im not 100% sure on, last i heard you could but they are not cheap, you may be able to split them and sort them by cleaning the inside and going over the outside a little more :)

    i know old video but have you looked at the silver reflector bowl behind the projector lens? the ones on my car have lost its silvering so i bought some second hand ones and they were exactly the same, couldnt find any new ones. and because plastic its a chemical silvering not electrical. 20 year+ cars now could explain why your seeing bad light output also. worth a look next time you have a chance. im thinking of trying some of that brightest paint (glow in the dark when off could be a cool effect) or just silver paint to test if its better. but professional silvering would be best as its mirror finish .
