Have you tried the www.retrofitsource.com for a lesser costly alternative for projectors? They've got a bunch of options. Not legal but I think you might find something there. |
any updates? final pictures?

Hi- well I have all the parts now, but waiting on the guy who makes up the frames, he's taken another job on, up north so will be away for about 10days to 2weeks......if he cant do something when he gets back, I'll try and get the jigs off him and get someone else to weld up the frames

They're still pretty expensive, even without the bulbs and ballasts. They do work great though. Used them last night on the 5 hour drive back from the Miami meet and I am very pleased with the light output. They work great.

Even cheaper if you email them with a list of things that you would like to purchase in a package. Surprised at how much cheaper all this gear has gotten since I did my last retrofit :lol: |
Ok a quick update, the Blacksmith is working on getting a couple of sets done towards the end of this week. Will have a definate price then too

Hi- well I had to give the frames back to the blacksmith for checking the next pairs up against
But from the outside they will look just like Knight Sports https://www.rx7club.com/fdnewbie-imports-172/knight-sport-headlights-773069/ |

Eagerly awaiting final assembly and pics. Mike |
looking forward to the pictures, there's so many good kits to update our lights coming out right now, and thats a really fair price too.
|
Yup and the weekend is just about over with
|
haha ok ok
Picking up two sets of frames tomorrow, but wont be home from work till Wednesday to fit them onto the rex! |
Right! Got the lights, but need to find someone who wants a set to test fit, I've tried my car, but since its not much more than a rolling shell, with no front bumper, wings or bonnet it's not really a valid test lol
Hopefully someone will get back to me on the UK forum, and I can test fit them! Very frustrating |
Here we go!! :egrin:
You can just about tell (from the light blare) that the Twin Lights are certainly brighter than the original lights...not hard I guess lol http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo016-2.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo015-2.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo017-3.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...e/Photo026.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...e/Photo025.jpg http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo023-1.jpg |
