Are they not COOL or what !!!!
Straight swap out ????
Doesn't the kit just plug in to the existing 3 pin Female connection ??

Then a night shot should be good

Cheers
They are so cool 😎 Yeah it is just plug and play although I thought the locators on the back would sit in the bowls but then I suppose they are generic and so held in place by the chrome rings (although I did mine black) I haven't done the wiring in the car as no column yet or dash so I will wire up the halos when I get chance separately for a quick look 😊

The one modification you need to make upon fitting these is to make the holes larger in the headlight doors where the lights go through or else there is no room for adjustment

Interesting colour reversal there. Where did you get the chrome ball?
Cheers, I've had the ball for years from the states and cant really remember where i got it from 😕 I was going to do it all chrome but the shaft was all scratched so i just thought i would do it the opposite way around and i personally quite liked it.

Ok after having the chance have finally got the headlights in and working correctly. Ended up modifying the Dip/Main unit to take H4 led bulb as the loom that came with it wouldn't work(not sure if it was something i was doing wrong but would only work when original bulbs were fitted not using the supplied loom) Now i can finally get the bumper painted and fit the front beams back on 😊

Mmmmm! Oringe sidelights, personally I like them, but from a safety point of view I'd be concerned, people might think your indicator is not flashing, and of you needed to MOT would it pass ?

Ok, only recently started back to doing bits to the vette. Not the best end to last year as had to put my dog down of 13 years, had to move business premises and broke my arm falling 16ft from some steps in the process (realised you don't bounce anymore as you get older) had over 3 months off which hurts when you're self employed. Managed to get the rear bumper on at the old unit and have now just got the lights in. So at least something 🙂
