thedecapitator · 01-07-2008, 10:19 PM

holy shit those look nice!!!

eastcoastS14 · 01-07-2008, 10:21 PM

i always wondered if they made angel eyes for 240s....so many hondas and acuras run them...Id love to get kouki ones cause they look so sick

DreamN · 01-07-2008, 10:25 PM

God, people have to get off the whole angel eye shit. It doesn't belong on every car.

lol nah they dont but Ive never seen them on a 240 before.....figured ive seen every other type of HID/projector set up...but not these, they are a bit 2000 tho

Rob's S14 · 01-07-2008, 10:36 PM

$199 seems a little cheap, plus it's ebay so if that's a risk you're willing to take then go for it.

Rob's S14 · 01-07-2008, 10:47 PM

Does it say who makes the lights that you're getting with the kit? I know ixfxi does custom light conversions and his cost way more than this, but I've seen them in person and it's very good work. I personally would say that in most cases you get what you pay for and if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

ROIDMONKEY · 01-07-2008, 10:50 PM

here is the link , for showing purpose not sale http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...link:middle:us

M4Rl0N · 01-07-2008, 10:53 PM

some people might not like it but i think it looks nice if you can make it work with your car

DreamN · 01-07-2008, 10:53 PM

ehh... they're just still not doing it for me. oh well, to each their own.

98koukile · 01-07-2008, 10:59 PM

It'd look weird on a kouki, you could really only pull off one ring per side cuz they'd interfere with the high beams

ROIDMONKEY · 01-07-2008, 11:05 PM

will let u guys know how this go , going to order it

projectdrifter · 01-07-2008, 11:23 PM

Yeah, be sure to take some pics. I think they look ok. Personal preference...

I've stopped doing mods based on what others may might think/say about it (to a degree).

I think they'll look good/ok depending on the car as a whole.

smelly240 · 01-08-2008, 07:37 AM

they're just some cold cathode bulbs... and its a kit u have to install... cold cathodes can be ordered in any shape you want. Those round ones u can even get at microcenter - lol. either way, i dont like it - and for 200 bucks you can prolly find something cooler to spend $ on.

either way - you better get the nice covers from supermade/final konnexion or whatever - because putting the stock glass back on is gonna be gay.

300hp owen · 01-08-2008, 08:45 AM

sheeehs, just run a nice set of OEM lights and spend your money on other things like GO FAST parts or something.

oh well...

/end rant.

<captain Obvious> That's Mike aka ixfxi </capt>

As for the eBay kit, it's only a DIY cold cathode kit. Nothing to write home about.
Do it. You seem to like them. It might even look good.

g6civcx · 01-08-2008, 12:27 PM

Be aware that a lot of kits are not DOT-approved, and may give the police a reason to pull you over to look for other violations.

ROIDMONKEY · 01-08-2008, 02:26 PM

like today this cop next to me waiting on a light signal told me that my exhaust system was a violation of bla bla bla bla and I need to take care if it . Removed . I was like is it? And he's like yes , I responded ok thanks . Damn it

DOT approved is misleading.

More like meets DOT standards

I think it looks ok- but I think I'd rather see them on some brick headlights.

You want to put crappy round "angel eyes" in large rectangular lights?

This thread makes me unhappy.

You are absolutely correct. The USDOT itself does not approve or disapprove any equipment. Instead, the USDOT issues a series if specifications for equipment safety. The manufacturer self-certifies and can claim DOT compliant equipment.

Nonetheless, each state has its own vehicle safety inspection administered by the state police in conjunction with the state's own DOT. Usually the laws require headlights to be "DOT approved" where "DOT" refers to the state's DOT, and the state's DOT would defer to USDOT specs, i.e. must have "DOT" or "SAE" printed on the lens.

Some states even require "USDOT approved" equipment as codified by law. Based on this wording, these laws are impossible to comply with for the very reason stated above.

Good catch.
