Not a 240 but they have been retro'd...

90-91 JDM one piece Accord headlights
-E55 projectors
-LED ring

I was going to put shrouds on next since the person who originally retrofitted them never did but I ended up selling these.

Andres_G · 07-22-2012, 02:10 PM

My setup allows me to flash my highs without activating the low beam HID setup.

slowvia · 07-22-2012, 03:46 PM

Haha, and you come back with that? I don't really care how it looks just how it performs... And on a second note I really don't care what you think cus I personally have no respect for you seeing as you are possibly the biggest douche on this forum, congratulations you are clearcorners.com and you have a million posts, that still don't make you shit in my book bro

thats because you're an idiot, and you're using RHD headlights here in the States.

do something about your beam pattern, then post.

usdm180sx · 07-31-2012, 10:29 PM

Mike can you do something like that "looking 180sx" vid? I just won the lottery =P

S14kouki_10 · 08-02-2012, 09:10 PM

its too advanced for mike

slowvia · 08-03-2012, 04:09 PM

I really just want the side markers on that sileighty!

silviaks2nr · 08-05-2012, 02:21 PM

I don't know if this thread is worth posting in anymore? do people still want to see cool lighting mods (NOT HID KITS)?

Something I'm working on currently. I think I need to add a vertical inner diffuser to make it look more OEM, since the clear lens I made isn't fluted.

Te37 · 08-05-2012, 03:56 PM

Finally some one is doing it right! What are those little lenses over the LEDs?

silviaks2nr · 08-05-2012, 04:19 PM

there's an inner lens that focuses each LED that I re-used from the donor light

Te37 · 08-05-2012, 04:58 PM

And the donor light is from....?

silviaks2nr · 08-05-2012, 05:29 PM

A newer Volvo, I don't remember exactly. I think they all use the same lighting element in the back window.

talkin to me?
I should have some lights finished up with similar effects in the near future.

usdm180sx · 08-16-2012, 08:27 AM

I was posting ti ixfxi but if you can do something like that also the inner ricer in me is soooooo down to rock that

comablack783 · 08-16-2012, 02:53 PM

not to thread jack..but... anyone with retrofitted projectors in pop ups figured out how to keep the cut off from bouncing around? I tried replacing the support arms, adjusting them all the way up... cut off bounces around, drives me nuts, I think its the stiff suspension..

i did the retro fit on pop ups. how bad of a bounce are you talking about?
mine aren't bad at all!

comablack783 · 08-16-2012, 04:00 PM

lol, bad enough I want to weld them open or goto fixed lights.. maybe bounce is the wrong word, its more like a jiggle... the sharp cut off makes it really noticeable tho..

Te37 · 08-16-2012, 04:08 PM

It might be your stiff suspension? Mine jiggle, but it's because of my stiff coils...trust me my projectors are secure! It's more like sharp movement not jiggle, because of the sharp cutoff lines.
