My fix for the FDs crappy light output
hi,
im currently converting my FDs bumperlights into bi-xenon projectors
after i installed my REamemiya sleek kit, the car became downright dangerous to driver at night
i allready have HID lights as fogs but those only work as highbeams
so i didnt have any lowbeam to speak of,
not realy fun to drive with
so here is what i did, installed R-motorbike BI-projectors (E-marked) into the bumperlight turnsignal
the turnsignal i just moved to the park light (cut of and moved the light socket)
i didnt need that anyway since the REkit has park built in
so, here are some pics, tell me what you think
ps. will post nighttime lightoutput pics later

i have a pic, its not 100% adjusted at the moment+ineed to polish the plastic alittle,
but its not that bad to drive with, a biiiig improvement over stock
ps, on the highbeam shot, the lights where to close to the middle and adjusted alittle to much down.
perfect cutof (the little amount of glare is from the chrome on the stock lights
and yes, the signal lights are now moved to the parklight position, works perfekt with osram diadem bulbs

i must have a amber singnal , and amber park is not allowed in europe
thats a us only thing
i dont need the park function, the reamemiya sleeks take care of that
i will post more pics later, my setup is currently: bumper bixenon, and 4x55w hid in the re sleeks
pluss hid highbeams as foglights, so if i want to i can have 4x35whids and 4x55w hids on at the same time.
its like turning on the sun

no tri xeon is basicaly a standard hid bulb in a bi xeon houseing which is a project that has a actuator flap to lower for highbeams. SInce normaly they use bixeon bulbs with this application to dim the light when you put on high beams, if used with just a standard hid bulb you gain what is call tri xeon light output is remarkable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kay8X...layer_embedded.
just thats with the two standard projectors im goning to be useing 4 bmw e34 projectors with a custom bracket and bucket to retain a more sleepy eyed look i will post pics when finished.

thats regular bi-xenon, like mine, they have a motorised shield that moves out of the way for highbeam.
only thing im worried about on theese applications is the durability of the shiels actuator, not that it matters, the REamemiyas take care of the highbeams

That is the coolest looking light setup I've ever seen! I personally think this looks much cleaner than the Feed type lights. Nice work, I had a similar idea to this, but I might just copy this! haha
