Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: Pau1 on January 23, 2009, 01:52:15 PM
Can anyone identify these headlights for me, i think they might be KnightSports but not 100%.

Anyone seen these for sale anywhere?

TIA

Hi Paul - pretty damn sure they are KS as I have a set on mine....

They do come up every now and then - but rarely!

All the best - Phil.

Were do i get my mitts on a set of those!!!  they look superb!!!

indeed they do - but they\'re almost as rare as rocking horse poo - and a lot more desirable!  I\'ve seen one pair come up in the last year - and they went within a couple of hours...

Nice! Its good to have pop-ups since they longer make them.
I\'d certainly fancy a set as it makes a change from all the sleek light kits out there.
Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: JBerg on January 23, 2009, 10:21:26 PM
I\'ll get the ball rolling...
 
As long as its all complete and working...250 delivered?
Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: Ada7 on January 23, 2009, 10:22:52 PM
Already offered that by PM mate and he\'s looking for a bit more.
I can see these going before the begining of the month. **Adam goes off the sulk**

Yeah I did, but I sold them in the end to Tony C. Good lights but I like the popups when down, they look so clean! Thats why I fancy a set of the KS, makes the stock pop ups look so much nicer!
Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: JBerg on January 23, 2009, 11:18:48 PM
If you already have a number in mind, why not just let us know how much your selling them for...
Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: Pau1 on January 24, 2009, 12:26:37 AM
Oi ! Back of the que folks! Marky, let me know how much you\'re looking for and we can maybe do a deal.

How do I PM on the forum, do i have to be a full member?
Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: MaLicE on January 24, 2009, 01:10:18 AM
yeh u need to be a full member to pm, its worth the money for the membership!

i would LOVE a set of them lights, but other things are more important atm like power fc new exhaust and some buckets lol! why cant everything be cheaper! and that re front bumper looks sexy on the car selling the lights too!

i was tempted to go sleek lights but there are so many fakes around and they just take away from the sexyness at times... i love the look of the fd with the popups closed, and they are cool to drive with at night u just aim the road between them lol!
Title: FD3S Headlights?
Post by: Pau1 on January 24, 2009, 02:04:01 AM
Yeah, i\'ve just looked into that just now. Looks like it\'ll definitely be worth the money too. Good times! :yes

Marky, you can email me on pallan at oceaneering.com with a price. Hope this is ok mods.

I know they worth every penny.  They are not just 2 sets of round lights stuck in stock position but has full machanism (spelling) replaced + front round covers etc.

Mmmmm - seems like some interesting replies here since I posted up a piccy! #;o)

Marky - out of interest bud - what bulbs do you use.... I\'ve got new blue / white ones but I\'m still not that impressed?!

I also have an HID kit to try and fit... however - I\'m a little dubious about hacking up a set of KS units! :2Rolleyes:rolleyes:
