Rotary Extreme sleek light kit installed!!!!
No pictures yet but I'll have them in a week after they are permenantly mounted. Well, we had to work outside in the freezing cold at 3am so it wasn't that fun, especially not for Cruser since we were taking his car from him.
Everything bolted up great, holes were lined up were they were suppose to, basiclly no modifaction needed to be done to the kit.
Cutting the sheet metal on the car is pretty scary so I'd suggest anyone that buys this kit to cut with a small rotary tool like a dremal. Even though you might use up lots of cutting disc, you'll have way nicer looking cuts. BTW, I have the sheet metal I cut off if someone wants to borrow it for a template
The wiring is as simple as can be. We didn't even have to extend the wires at all. We just used male crimp connectors and pluged them into the stock headlight harness, very simple setup. And no cutting of wires when we want to take the kit off, just unplug.
After everything was installed, we finally turned them on and we were simply amazed!! This is the best light pattern I have ever seen on any 3rd gen headlight kit. These are projector lights but this would be my first time I've seen a projector light have such a wide beam. We pointed the lights partly down because we didn't want to attract any cops on our 300mi drive home. Even pointed down, I could see everything on the road, it was just beautiful. Plus they don't blind other drivers like other kits I've seen, they look just like stock projector lights from a 300ZX, SC300, supra, ect.
The drive home scared me but no cop ever gave us a second look at our lights. That is probably my 2nd biggest concern, light pattern being my first
Dollar for dollar, pound for pound, headlight kit for headlight kit, these are the best out there (from what I've seen). Chuck, you did an awesome job with these lights putting quality and performance in front of everything else
I will post pics of the lights and it's light pattern in a week, but here are some pics of the sheet metal I cut out

did you have to remove the bumper and.or wheel well? how did the lexan fit with the hood lines? noticed on the pics the trailing lines had a big gap where it met the hood...so much that even in the pics you could see the metal brackets from the top looking down on the hood.
