Hi

I have just taken delivery of these lights below.

Static twin setup with built in halo rings (I think thats what they call them) or is it angel eye, anyway that BMW ring of light look.

I have dry fitted them on the car today and they are an amazing fit, I will be finishing the instalation over the weekend I will then post  some pics:) cant wait, I hate the pop up look.


Cheers

Eddie - Are they carbon fibre finish or do they need painting up?   They look great but I don\'t think c/f would suit my car...

They look just like those you can get from Nemesis.

Hi Fish

I looked into the nemesis ones and I agree they are very similar.
Only differnce being Nemesis did not offer angel eye but not thats not everyone cup of tea.
And I think the nemesis ones are over priced for what they are, but then again most RX7 light conversions are over priced:)

I will get some pics of them on the car this weekend for the group.


Cheers

I\'m interested in a set of flush lights for my FD, but I see those ones have rectangular lights which i don\'t like so much - can they be obtained with round lights?

Those Attain ones look great, hell of a lot cheaper than C-West ones as well. Any info on some UK-friendly stockists?

I\'m liking those east bear lights, just the sort of thing i have been looking for and they don\'t rise up above the bonnet line much like most other twin setups.
Any idea where i can pick up some more info on these, anyone?

Eddie I  have a set, as you can see, did you buy them on Ebay, If you did mate ,like me, I\'M sorry to tell you they will not pass the MOT test,the Reflector in the actual light is the same as a torch lamp and are not directional,  as are other UK lights, I am currently waiting for an explanation from JDMHONDAPARTSsales@tcbimportz.com as why they are selling them to the UK market and what they propose to replace my lights with.

I wonder how mine passed the MOT then? I bought mine from someone else but they are the same lights raceon USA ones.
I thought they would fail when I went for the MOT but I thought give it a try and they did not fail it( naughty garage:).

I would be very interested in the result of the JDMHONDA reply as well.

Keep us posted.

I have been making enquiries about these lights as the are apparently adjustable from L/H to R/H drive cars.  

I was told by both JMDHONDA and his supplier in the U.S. INNOMOTOR that there is an adjustment screw on the back of the lights that moves the reflector around the bulb so that the beam is on the right side.  (looking for that email now...)

I\'ve not bought a set yet, so am unable to look for myself.  Going on what you guys have said, maybe they we\'ren\'t telling the whole truth then?
Title: Ive seen the Light!!!!!!!
Post by: DreXeL on August 12, 2005, 04:44:07 PM
They are adjustable on the back. There are four adjustable screws per lamp, the only problem is you can\'t adjust them when they are in place, you have to remove them to adjust them.

Post by: asp on August 12, 2005, 04:55:26 PM
u can adjust them in place but u hav to cut a hole out of the bottom to do it
Title: Ive seen the Light!!!!!!!
Post by: lee1boy on August 12, 2005, 05:37:12 PM
The four fixing bolts that are springed, do not give the adequate  adjustment  to allow the reflector to give the correct light pattern  Thus will if looked at properly fail the MOT.
The MOT centre/garage were asked to adjust accordingly with what I thought were adequate adjusters but to no avail.

The kit itself minus the lights is still worth the money. I am alsmost tempted to upgrade them to hi-lo HID\'s in one and full beam HID in the other.
