Yeah so, I was bored and I got a phone call from Jeff asking if I wanted to come down to his shop to help him with some stuff.
He picked me up in a '94 'Vette, was cool, cramped, but cool.
We played around with one of my RC's at first, I think Jeff can tell you how fast it was.
Anyways...Old lights...

After playing guess and check with the wiring, and hour later another light goes in.

We needed to pick up some things, so it was back to my house in the 'Bird.

If you can turn a screw with a screwdriver you can do it, it's very very easy. Like playing with legos easy just more expensive parts ;) :cheers:

20times better! it still needs to be aligned a little bit more! but soooo much brighter!
ya it was a bitch because my front panel was bent and it ****ed up everything.....but me and jack figured it out
oh ya excuse the dirty car, the last time it was washed (2days ago) it wasnt such a great job, only because i let dave, paul, chris, and john wash it with some high pressure water....hahaha stunt show!

it actually was alot more work then you would think.....it comes with no directions, so you have to guess where all the wires go, while blowing out fuses because ur guessing ect...ect...
if you look online there was a 11 pages of instruction, but none of it helped :chair:
oh well, im happy with the results:boink:

see i have 6,000K Xenon bulbs and 6,000K Xenon fogs to put in, but the instructions arent anything special and also i have no idea about electric stuff and wires and where they go hahaha so i know if i were to do it i would either A) kill myself by electricution or B) kill my cars headlights by blowing bulbs by electricution... :lmao: im a retard when it comes to working with tools... i grew up in a house where my dad just paid everyone to do stuff for us and the only person that is really good with his hands is my older brother and my dad doesnt want to help me buy a junker that i can work on bc he thinks that i dont know anything and that it isnt worth it... :roll: such a great father he is trust me

well you said it yourself you have no experience with it so is he really wrong?
jeff the headlights look great, how much did it all run you? i really wanna do some nice headlight thing like you... angel eyes for sure, and i dunno about hid's or projectors enough to distinguish them but some nice bulbs is a must...
did you put orange bulbs in the corners or put the old corners back in?

looks good i dunno about it being hard john's were easy but i've done it a bajillyindy times

06-07-2006, 02:25 PM
well its not exactly hard....just time consuming becuase my intake and other things were in the way....had to relocated some stuff ect ect....
i could do it again in a half hour if i had to
Ill get some day time shots tommorow or when i get home from work if its still day time.
It cost me around $400
whats next modding wise?? well i got software in the mail right now and a potential buyer to buy the car early next week...if i dont sell it ill probaly do wheels next
