dick0149 Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 just bought some today.. can't wait to put them on
Lethal_Threat Posted August 7, 2008 Author Posted August 7, 2008 Nice job They look great. thanks buddy, well worth the effort.
Lethal_Threat Posted August 7, 2008 Author Posted August 7, 2008 just bought some today.. can't wait to put them on Save yourself the trouble and just pull the bumper cover off right off the bat, those highbeams are some tricky suckers. <_<
UCF3 Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 NNNNOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) Alright, now that you've done the deed, i guess i can say they look okay. I still prefer the LED conversions from Clearcorners, plus they offer real HIDs

I still prefer the LED conversions from Clearcorners, plus they offer real HIDs Those look nice, but i was going for the blacked out look, im trying to get everything blacked out on the car. I like the stealth look.
Ratatat Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 just looked, they must be supporting some drug habit, damn high prices even for door or trunk lites.

I like the stealth look. they have used a powder coating inside to cover the chrome before. They sent me a link before, but unable to find it at this moment. It does look similar to the charcoal look on the 05 camry's that's actually the look I will be going for as well. I know they are very expensive but they are one of the only ones that offer custom work. They can convert it to your look you desire, which is what I am going to do eventually. They're not for everybody out there, but if believe if I am going to change the look of my only true ride i'm going to do it right.

I understand what you mean but there were other things i didnt like about the original headlights, including the main lense itself. It just looks outdated, and is very restrictive on light flow. Not to mention, with these headlights i can use H1 bulbs, and super high output HID setups. Im big on lots of light when i drive at night, (esp while speeding B) :D )
Lethal_Threat Posted August 12, 2008 Author Posted August 12, 2008 I like them...very nice clean look ..good job with the install. :) Thank you very much! I love how they look, pretty straight forward wiring and such as well. :)
Lethal_Threat Posted August 12, 2008 Author Posted August 12, 2008 Where did you buy them from mate? I got these headlights off of ebay, just go to ebay.com and type "SC400/300 Headlights" and they will pop up. My headlights came as a set with the highbeams, but you can get them seperately. I bought them as a set because it was cheaper.

I think HIDs should be used by all cars. They're brighter and go far. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the ones you have on now, I consider them a bit on the cheap end otherwise i would have installed them on my SC when I first found them on ebay. To me, the Clearcorners are jewel-like and will probably going to be brighter. So what's wrong with the stock ones? you mentioned they're restrictive. I think you should consider getting HID High Beams. They'll work better while you're driving down those blacked-out streets better, and it has a wider spectrum so that you can avoid the deer population.

Ah, well i do admit they are on the cheap side, but if you think about it, what is there really to go wrong with it? Mostly issues that the old headlights had anyway, and atleast this way i get the updated look. The lens itself on the old headlights was just designed restrictive.
cbk Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 hey lethal are your new high beams brighter then the stock ones ?
Gslide Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 WAAAY brighter then stock headlights and high beams. Easy wiring & install. I didnt even have to completely remove bumper:) I went a another step and replaced all the lights with LED's and wired it a lil different I will convert to HID's eventually I like them alot more than clearcorners lights, and they dont cost 2 grand. not to knock them or anything. they are still boss my only complaint is the adjustment screws... on mine in particular are very poor. only one of them worked... so aiming them is PIA. headlights are too high and the high beams had the same problems with the adjusment screws. but i may have gotten unlucky I wired the halo's to come on with the driving light. 5 led UV 12 led hid white then i wired the top 3 to blink witht he blinkers.. 1 led cones 15 led blinkers

I am kind off curious to why it's restrictive. The lense cover is clear so I'm confused. The only difference I can think-off would be a protective film on the stock lense making it a bit restrictive. How about the Aftermarket; do they feel like quality, other than the screw issue? BTW: what happened to your corner-lights? tint, or did you just remove them completely?
Gslide Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Well if you have ever seen a set of Ebay headlights you can kinda get an idea. Very light weight, They are not OEM quality plastic The adjustment is finiky.. but they dont leak. the lens is still nice and clear and they give it more of a 2008 appeal, especially with the led swap. I just feel sorry for oncoming traffic and cars in front of me at night. I got my lights from a private seller for $175 shipped. I think I would have been less satisfied if I had paid the full price. I think someone should use the clear cover on some stock lights that would be interesting yes, tinted the corner lights and fogs

Def, no leaks yet, and much brighter because of their completely clear lense (highs and lows) Hey GSLIDE, can you get me some links to that LED setup you've got please??
VJZ Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Hey GSlide can we see a front on shot of you car with those chrome Ebay ones. I'm so torn!! I don't know if I like the black ones or the chrome ones better. GRRR
soramad Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Hey GSlide can we see a front on shot of you car with those chrome Ebay ones.I'm so torn!! I don't know if I like the black ones or the chrome ones better. GRRR some of these lights have found their way across the big pond to the uk and some have been fitted to soarers but there is one big problem with them , they are orientated in the wrong direction for driving on the left side of the road,this has been over come by some by taking the units apart and rotating something inside, can't remember what but it appears to realign the beam so it becomes acceptable to our ministry of transport testing, does any one over in the usa make a unit for use in the uk or japan or anywhere that drives on the left? there could be quite a market for them!
