All I have to say man, is HURRY UP & DO WHAT YOU'RE DOING! I want those lights man.

& dclin, let us know where you're getting the HIDs from, I'd prefer those to halogens, price permitting.

Their looking good I am Interested - I love the look of stock lights when closed but when open their too tall and don't work very well to boot - I drive a lot at night so I am very interested in a improved lighting setup that works good and looks totaly stock when closed!

I suggest putting a larger light in the inner position. From Maxs view, there seems to be enough room.

Trust me there is NOO more room in there. They are squeezed in there just about as tight as you can get it. I tried it awhile back to have one light larger than the other, but it didn't look good at all. I should've taken a picture of it.

hey ryan, i don't know if you read that post about the tailights from a while back, but it was an indirect thank you for my conversion. thanks again. now, for business at hand, that kit is looking pretty damn good. i would like to be put on the list for more info when product is finished and a ballpark price is established. please e-mail me with info and also i would like to talk to you about the mods you've done on your car. i've started a thread (who knows their sh!t...) but it seems no one is reading it all the way or just doesn't care. that's a shame if it's the latter. but if you could get back to me, that would be great. thanks spoolin7@midsouth.rr.com

and here i like the 2 diff sizes :devil: ;)

but yours is lookin good i really like the hella 90mm's i might swich my low's to them and keep the driving lights with 100w bulbs as my highs///thiese things are bright as hell...

I think I missed the post, but you're most welcome. Thanks for letting me do them. Enjoy them and spread the word, I MAY not be doing them too much longer, but who knows yet. I will keep updating this post (or make a new one) as I get more information on the headlights. I like this post as it gives me ideas of what people are looking for eventhough I've already got everything pretty much figured out. I'm not completely past the point of no return on some things. I'll try and get you an email too once I find out everything. I also responded to your other post and gave a real long response on my opinions. I'll keep checking that and answering anymore questions I can, or if you have a question you think I know, send me an email at rx7even@yahoo.com and I'll try to help you out.

Ryan

Ah the Baconsports kit. :) I have to admit I do like the way yours looks with the two different size lights, BUT, I like the way they look better with them the same size. I don't remember if you have those lights hooked into the stock housing of not, but if you do, good luck getting one of the hella's in there, especially the low beam (you'll see what I mean if you try it). They look small from the outside on my pictures and in other pictures I've seen, but believe me, the bodies of these things is quite large! Even with the totally new bracket I have designed, they BARELY fit in there.

Ryan

boo thats gonna piss me off......

hey ryan, i changed my avatar in tribute to your handy craftsmanship. i thought it was a pretty cool shot. i have it on my wallpaper, too.

Where there's a will, there's a way. Er, sometimes. Good luck! ;)

Ryan

Awesome! They look really good! Thanks for doing that! :)

my friend got this conversion for his 240 also...I must say the beam pattern is GREAT! and it looks really good. Much better than the one in the pics above.

they also did the "devil eye" thing like BMW with some really bright LEDs

David

Thanks for those links A-Spec. Those are the exact same lights I'm using, so obviously there is an HID kit for them like I thought. I'll definetely look into this as an option for those that want it.

Now those lights look beautiful!!! Since those are the same lights you are using Ryan is there any way to incorporate that same look?

Little Photoshop fun...

yes the way to do it is to just get regular d2s bulbs and glue/tape them in there! surprisingly it sits at the correct place and the beam pattern is GREAT!

The LEDs are a pain...he glued on many many individual LEDs...good luck.

the lights would look great if you had the middle one sit forward a little more than the outer ones. Have them at the same height.
David

Ryan,

The lights look great. Only question I have beyond how much :) is how close to the nose is that inner light. From the angle on your picture, it has me wondering if its far enough back to avoid heating the paint up.

Probably a silly question since I dont know how hot the lights you're using get, but I had a set of similar lights that you could cook dinner in front of once.

Who's kit are these? I agree these lights look great !! :cool:

I made a headlight kit a couple of years ago, if you want to see pictures go to www.rotordave.com/spyro.htm

These look very nice. I like the slight offset look. Very little in this car is a pure circle or square (well wheels, dials, and other things that spin). Having the lights offset in depth and height looks right to me.

Could you show a picture of what the lights look like from the side or above-behind when in sleepy position? Is there anything, like gaps, that look funny when the covers are 1/2 to 2/3 open?

I sacond putting good lighting patter higher in priority over the lowest possible lid.

keep us posted!

I had one question about the kit. Will this kit allow the lights to still open and close? Or will this be a fixed comversion? Looking good buy the way.

They are back far enough and will actually be a hair above the bumper. The reason it looks like it's right on it is because it pretty much is. The lights are switched and the low beam wouldn't fit in the bracket (since I didn't design it to go there), so it's actually sitting just below the bracket (and sticking out more than usual). Who know's, maybe by tonight I'll have a picture of it where it's supposed to be. :)

Ryan

Glue/tape the lights in? Well that's different. ;) I guess if it works though. I'll look into it.

The inside light IS out a little farther than the outside light, it's just hard to tell from that picture. They do need to be staggered a bit though. Having them at the same level just doesn't flow well with the bottom of the headlight opening. We'll see though.

Ryan

Er, well probably, like A-Spec said it can be done. I doubt I'll be selling these as an option, but they could be bought seperately and added on later.
