Lancer overhaul - Project Phoenix

razor4077 · 13th July 2007, 14:30

LED Tail lamps eh? Sounds nice... any clue how much they cost?

@zenopio: that was the initial plan, but found out that it has reliability issues, and the reflector setup isn't great.. meaning poor light throw. So sticking to OE, but may smoke the lights a bit.

Great - so now the stuff has arrived. Quite a re-build on a national level eh ?? Get your lights from Delhi & Shox from Chennai.. Saare desh se samaan aa jayega !!!!!

Your updates are great _ i am almost reliving my cars re-build. Hope the result comes upto expectations. I am sure it will., with the kind of research etc. you have put in.

All the best...Cheers

Thanks Ricky! As a matter of fact, the Pedders are arriving from Chennai!!

Btw, the lamps were ordered from UK and the ICE wiring kit from the US. So can it qualify as international?

BUSA · 13th July 2007, 17:26

Thats a nice updated Razor.

Can you please tell me whats the cost of the Plati PY509?

Truly international re-build - but why get lamps from UK & cabling from US

Is there a huge price differential or is it the INTERNATIONAL LANCER

HE HE HE EH

lamps from UK

Those lamps are not available here, sigh!!

razor4077 · 13th July 2007, 18:18

@toiingg - hoping to have it ready by the 22nd... fingers crossed

@V-16: thanks! I am too!! What's the progress on your restoration project?

@Ricky - Lamps were not available in India when I bought them (as BUSA said), and wiring was much cheaper in the US

@BUSA - Thanks! Rims were 4000*5 = 20000

What is the total cost of this project?

Vid6639 · 14th July 2007, 00:55

hey Razor, nice work dude. the cars beginning to take shape nicely.

What headlamps do you have in mind? any pics? I don't think for that model you have much choice. It's either OE or the one Ricky had. The clear lamps are only for the later models.

razor4077 · 14th July 2007, 02:19

@1100D - thx. it looks great. but i wonder if it's a good idea to fit them on cal roads. a bikewallah brakes a bit late... and i gotta replace both of them. that's a pretty big risk, since I don't think they come very cheap.

@Arush - how much do these cost?

@vid - sticking to OE, but may smoke them a bit.

@mayavi - will discuss the costs when the project is more or less completed. but it's a considerable amount of dough :(

@akshay - your're right man, but not that many YET in cal. also, don't think anyone has 15 inchers in machine black fitted on a black lancer! i think i'll have the edge....!!
