rtagn's update thread

[rtagn]

MMMMMMMmmm... first off thanks to fellow tn members for helping me with mods and so forth..


First off so far i have retrod ccfl headlights thanks to pawel's help, it wasn't too expensive, i provided the headlights and he charged 350 for labor and parts... CUTOFFS COMING SOON, WHEN IT GETS DARK!!

other light mods are lumanics 2500k highs and fogs

fogs are independent with a switch which are also mixed in with the ccfls.



















Have an indash nav, with dvd, radio, aux, steering wheel controller works, ipod control...

sorry camera does nav no justice, it is actually very clear and crisp and the touch function works wonders




and just for some laughs, LOVE MY CHILDHOODNESS






SOON TO COME:



just need to repaint and bolts,

question: do i need a template to install???

[Pawel062]

looks really good. that spoiler makes me want to get one but dad keeps on saying what if you want to remove it down the line...can't wait to see the mesh

for those wondering the retro cost 350 for labor, projectors, clear lenses, custom rubbers for rear headlights, adding more sealent since aftermarket sucks, waxing/cleaning up the lenses, and adjusting of cutoff color/colormodding. also was something like 50 for bulbs, 30 for amps to d2s adapters and wiring harness, and i believe spare headlights cost 125. so thats around 550. if anyone else wants a set then drop me a pm.

it looks great. Is it easy to install into the LE? Is there any instruction to install it?

its actually very easy, no, no instructions all you do is when you get the product remove the three screws ontop of the unit so you can insert cd's...then you take out your oem radio > then plug in the adapter wires, and plug in your new unit and put everything back together...took around 30 minutes for me xD

oh and that is an le in the picture

wow, that sounds easy, I also have a LE 07. How well do its functionality and reliability compare to the real one. The price is acceptable.

[rtagn]

well i dont know how the oem works, but this is actually really easy to use, ill get a video up sometime, but not yet

[rtagn]

ok here are some pics of the cuttoff and the video quality and stuff

oh and camera does no justice

after (rx-afs projectors with 85122+ phillips)
