Aftermarket Headlights

[Nightcrawler]

These lights will be BETTER than you can even imagine ... I am thinking about wiring mine up so the halos stay on during the day too! I have a couple of spare T5 led globes I can sell to whoever wants them for their parkers too - I think they cost me about $10.

[interfooler]

^ Exactly my thoughts too. Have the CCFL or LED as daytime running lights, depending on which is brighter. But still have no clue how to go about this. Any idea?

[Ksharp]

Disappointed that I missed out on the group buy. Does anyone have any idea where I can still get them or anybody else interested in another group buy?

What is the general setup? Are the LED's meant to be on during the daytime? Can you set it up so that they are on or off or have both on? I just like the look of the lights even if they are not on.

[Nightcrawler]

No idea until we get the lights - but I am assuming that the CCFL halos are wired to the stock parkers - surely it is very easy to separate them and connect them to accessories so they come on when the car is on. We will figure it out when we install the lights.

Email Jesse at [email protected] and tell him you missed out on the group buy, but you want a quote on a set through him - it will cost you a bit more, but anything is doable.

thanks for your help mate

Just paid $198 for a single to Sydney. yep let the fun begin. I'll hold off on installing so I can feed off everyone's experiences and tips/traps, hahaha

I'm paid for , not that this will hold anyone up. Hopefully as the word on the street is it is just unplug the old and plug in the new. I do have a 12/05 Coupe so how hard can this be??????

[Nightcrawler]

Very easy is my thoughts - plug and play. But I have been wrong before :ninja:

If the coupe' lights are anything like the sedan ones, the halos wont be conected when you get them. Giving you the option to splice into the parkers/led's or setup a different connection for daytime running lights.

[Nightcrawler]

Thanks for the tip - I might figure out the best place to wire up accessories power and fuse before the lights arrive.

Stoked to get these bad boys on. But since my wiring is a mess (past owner or during compliance, didn't know what they were doing), so I will have to get it all rewired. Any help would be appreciated.

Any idea on what you guys are doing with your old lights? Is there just going to be a mass amount of lights appearing on ebay.lol.

Tyler, Nuwan from Bayswater may be able to help. I spoke to him today and he said if bolt on and off, it will cost $140 (he needs to physically look at the new lights first to confirm). However, if we do a group install, will be cheaper. Plus he may be interested in your old lights so it may end up with cash your way instead. Let me know if you guys are keen.

I can install in GC area...

Will need HIDs swapped from old light to current (pretty fidly and stops the bolt and and off from happening as mentioned above)

Globes swapped over but ideally you need new ones as you have lens (D2R) not projector globes (D2S) and will not get full benefit from light output

Front bumper needs to be partically removed also

Can also help if you want indicator to be re wired to blink and not be constantly on - otherwise its just orange (is in usa models anyway)

If you want LEDs or Halos or Both to constantly be on (during day) if they not already set up like this.

I did have some problems with one of my headlights so it may be worth buying new globes. Can anyone recommend what I should purchase?

Another group buy! Well I would probably be in. Do you have any further information or pricing, links etc?
