I painted the engine cover myself haha. But if you are talking about the eyelids then not too sure. But i know they should only cost around $80-$100

Car is looking really good mate. How come you used K&N filter? Is the one supplied with TRD too long?

Yep. Since mine is a facelift model the foglight is completely different to the prefacelift one and it sticks out a lot more which goes in the way of the pod filter. I still have it lying around somewhere.

really nice looking car mate..

The angel eyes projector kit looks the same.

here's a pic of my kit.

post-12850-1248179842_thumb.jpg

The box looks the same as the one from ebay.

The kit includes everything needed (hid bulbs, ballast, relay, wiring, etc.... Everything)

Go for it man.. B)

:idea: And i recommend to also do a black mod to your headlights. will look even better :spiteful:

Ahhh thanks few more questions:

1. How did you keep the projector in place inside the headlight

2. How does the connector for the lights work (projector and angel eyes)

3. any chance you can scan/take a picture of the instructions that you used or came with the box?

Thanks

Ahhh thanks few more questions:

1. How did you keep the projector in place inside the headlight. you have to loose the lens cover in order to put the projector in. the kit includes secure rings that will keep the projector in place.

2. How does the connector for the lights work (projector and angel eyes) see following link

3. any chance you can scan/take a picture of the instructions that you used or came with the box? see following link

Thanks

Cool, thanks. Seeing as mine is prefacelift, from what you said mine should fit.

IMO, you now need to change your dash light to red LEDs

if you dont mind :)

Posted

dash light? I think you mean the center console. And yes I will be changing those in the not to distant future

Still to come:

Some form of sound system

Yes eventually. $$$ is an issue. Next mod will hopfully be black headlight mod + angel eyes (prays). Either that or red led condole mod(a lot cheaper haha)

img2403z.th.jpg

Red leds for the center console mod. Tho I might be changing the colour to white if i don't like the red

img2406o.th.jpg

Soon to come:

Cusco os front strut

Whiteline rear torsion bar or TRD rear sway (Still deciding)

Posted

congrats on the purchase dude.. ;)

any light cut off pics?

Which color angel eyes did you choose?

And for the HID what color temp?

Posted

Just recieved them today so i haven't installed them yet. will do it soon. i chose white angel eyes and 6000k hids

Posted

Tell me how this goes! Also, are you able to wire the angel eyes seperately to the parker bulbs? Or is it wired together to the hid bulb?

Posted (edited)

Update: Red LED console mod done =D

imag0095a.th.jpg

The angel eyes just require a power source to turn them on. so you can tap into parkers/normal lights/indicators (lol?)
