Auction ends tonight!!!

 

I've done my own. Here is what they look like. Sorry, but the flash from the camera lit the reflector up. It doesn't look solid in the center normally. It was just a quick pic.

That is the biggest the circles can be. Any bigger and you have to modify the housing. The edge of the circle is right at the edge of the reflector and doesn't light the reflector up. I know my garage is messy, but what do you expect. Its where I work on an almost daily basis to get my $500 GSL running.

I will try to get another pic without the flash sometime soon.

 

Good work, but I think those are too big, too close to the reflctors.

 

85rotarypower, is that the flash making the reflectors light up? I still see the "barbell" effect. Take another pic without teh flash.

 

Yeah thats the flash. They look great when the reflectors aren't lit up. I will try to get a pic without the flash. Mabey tomorrow night. Kind of pissed me off after I saw the pic. I have a non heated garage and it took me 10 min to set it up. I had to hook up the battery, plug the rear lights in, and find a way to prop the brake pedal on. My turn signals even have the same size circles.

I tried to keep them equidistant from the edges of the inner housing, while still having the largest size circle as possible. It turns out that if you have a circle that just fits in, you can center them pretty well, and still keep them from being too far under the reflector. I would have liked a larger circle, but that is the biggest it can be. Roughly 3" diameter. I would prefer closer to 3.5"-4".

 

OK, so I got off my lazy *** and got a pic now. The picture is really nice, but for some reason, it turned out brighter than the first. I don't fully understand lighting for photography, so this could be normal, but its confusing for me.

 

I do like the larger size but the reflector really messes them up. mine are closer to 2.5 inch.

Next for me is headlights, got some ideas going.

 

im gonna be putting circles in my tinted tails pretty soon, i havent decided if i want to make circles in the amber blinkers of the tails yet
what do u guys think?

btw here are a few pics of my tailights lit up at dusk
i think they are gonna look 10x better with circles in them

here's mine....not done with the setup yet....p.s my daughters diaper is really stinking up the room...i'm gonna take out the trash...

 

yea i dont like the ones on e-bay that much

 

Mabey i will try spacing them about a half inch further apart and see how they look.

 

oh so now we're going with the circles and not the tinted? I think Jorx81 stated somthing.

-85rotarypower, How big are your circles?

 

The circles on mine are about 3" in diameter. The biggest possible size. I will eventually tint my lenses also, to really hide the circles in daylight. I think the combination will be great.

BTW, I have had mine done since November. I just never posted pics of them and never really talked about them.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA LOL!!!! ROTFL!!!


FREE CAT!!!


I HATE cats!!

 

i am a big corvette fan and i really like the circle lights. i think that combined with the tinted would look great. can anyone tell me how you are doing these modifications? i would really like to try it out on my rex. thanks.
