Headlights.....

ok, so in my SA i have this plan that i think would be amusing to try, so i want to basically pick up chicks in my 7.

I need to know how to make one of the headlights "wink" for my plan to work.

Cause i want to drive up next to an un-suspecting "victim" and make the car backfire, so they look, and then make it wink at them....

How can i make this happen?

Lol yes i know its a weird request....

wow we think alike...umm put both headlights up and unplugg the one you want to stay up, then if your SA has the same switch just to activate the headlights you could do that....heh sound fun though

im sure itd be easy enough as to run power to a switch then to only one of the headlight motors. try it out. ive thought of this. never really had any plans to follow thru with it.

this seems like one of those things that sounds like a good idea, but actually isnt. idk tho.

lol if u want on to go up and one to go down at the same time u can disco the motor spin the link 180 degrees and re hook it up one will always be up and 1 be down. not too practical for driving but looks cool. My right light motor didnt work and i found the wire that was broke but hooked it up offset so it did this. was kinda cool looking. The backfiring idk how u can on demand do it.. But most girls will look when u backfire and not be thinking i wana ride in that car. haha

I had the same idea back in the day but there's one problem... you can't pick up women in a first gen.

Maybe try using another stock switch wired to only one light? Pop them up with one switch, then flip the "winker" switch down and up again.

Wrooonngg. Left a local fair last friday night and I went unlock the door and two girls came up like "is THAT your car, its amazing !??". one rode in the passenger seat, and the other rode on her lap. Got home and one passed out at like 4 in the morning and the other slept with me. A clean 1st gen with the right look is a ***** magnet. You'll need a streetport to keep the panties from sticking. A 7 is still a 7. We just own the classic

Can you not just run one hot wire to whichever headlight motor that you want to raise ? then just toggle switch that bitch ?

The trick is, do you want the lights on while "winking", or off?

Not true!

I get 40+ "women" interested.

Just not "chicks."
