NVR ENUF,

So do they come with new bulbs etc or do you use your OEM bulbs etc in there housing?

Thanks, I like them!
 
I have the black ones on mine which i think look awesome. I don't have the three little led lights hooked up, just the angel eyes and parking lamps but they were not plug and play but it was very simple to connect. They are so much brighter its amazing and I really like the look of the halos. The construction of the housing is actually pretty well designed.
:beer:

How about some pics!!!!

Comes with all new bulbs. If you want all the lights to be the same bright white, replace the side markers with LED bulbs. The headlamps do have that xenon blue hue on certain angles.
 
If you haven't mentioned it already, would you mind telling us what the light pattern is: Is the "rise" to the right as all LHD vehicles' headlights in the US or is it to the left like RHD vehicles in JPN/AUS?

A pic would be great, but if you can tell us in the meantime, that would be greatly appreciated.

I'm just curious/wondering if they would bother making both LHD/RHD models for such a cheap price.

NVR ENUF,

Those look cool. I have never seen them mounted on a rig before. I might try them, but I'd also have to get clear lower turn signals to flow with the clear look. It is definately a cheap enough mod to at least try out sometime.

Thanks for the pics. Good Work!
 
Thanks, it was an easy job to do.

Mot, I will check tonight when the sun goes down but from what I remember, the passenger side was higher. I'll double check later on.
 
If you're right that would be the "correct" pattern for you guys in N. America!

Thanks!

Mot
 
Nay :flipoff2:
 
How about this one? I can post as many different grills you like.. but I'm afraid big brotha (moderators) watching it...

I want that grill, with 'TOYOTA' in white across it.

I know there's a mod to do this, but I don't feel like working with Bondo. I haven't had to since I stopped driving Camaros. :hillbilly:

NVR ENUF,

you don't even know that you made my day and saved my life with those pics of the headlights. I've asked some people here whether those ebay lights could be fitted onto an LX. People could only tell me the things I know, which is that the LX lights are different and that putting LC lights would require some grill modifications. Nobody knew whether these mods were big or not.

And suddenly you come and show us that this is basically a 'bolt on' situation which only requires dremelling a bit of the grill. I will definitely buy those lights because I have to. DOT lights are not allowed in Europe because they don't have the pattern rising to the right (USPS) so I have to change headlights whether I like it or not. I vew been planning to give (this week) my original LX lights to a guy who polishes the flutes on the lens and then put some Euro-approved projectors inside.

Owing to your pics I don't have to destroy the original lapms. I will just buy those ebay lights and experiment with them. If you ever have the free time to post some more close-ups of the headlights, I would greately appreciate it.

Many thanks.

Your welcome, Mike!

I've had a nice dremel kit sitting in the garage forever and now I have a reason to use it!;)

Here are the beams. I might be too close to the garage but if you look at the rectangles on the garage door, you can see the beam to the right goes to the upper corner whereas the beam to the left(DS) is underneath the bottom corner of the same row of rectangles.

I'd be interested to see pics of the black lights as well since the upcoming new LC's also have black housing.
