DIY - Projector Headlights for Accent

Jaggu · 1st November 2009, 00:51

If you want to show off the beam, pleas post a shot from inside the car onto a dark road, make it a fairly looong road

head on shots just washes out and cant make out head or tail.

@3SeriesCoupe - How do you manage Low/High beam with a single pair of Projector lamps?

3seriesCoupe · 13th November 2009, 01:15

is it possible for you to arrange the acrylic clear lens headlight covers for any car?

3seriesCoupe · 14th November 2009, 07:04

posting some pics of the focus and beam patter for both low/high

Fiorano88 : it can be done only for small cars like the M800/M-Zen/ Matiz.

Looks good, i like the spread in low beam and throw at high. Hope its not too blinding for oncoming traffic.

Overall great job!

Your ride looks killer even in the day too mate, The color and the projectors make it look meaner and furious.
