MX-3 Headlights
-
ok, thanks for that, i'm sure i'll have no prob splittling the lights.
but i'm having trouble getting the actual unit out from the car, seems to be getting caught on the bumper, whats it gonna take to get it out of there?
Nothing to drastic as its my daily driver.
-
dont know if you've done it yet but the bumper has to come off. screws and clips everywhere. also ive got a spare set of headlights if the worst happens.

I did a write up of painting these!
-
hmm, looks like i'll have to spend a couple of hours on it then.
cheers for the write up on painting them! i'll have to get that done!
got some "special" bulbs going in soon too :D

It's a fun little mod to do if you like cutting your fingers to bits like I did but the effect is awesome. :D
I need some "special" bulbs, what are they? I wanna know….

Hi, I covered mine in a perforated vinyl called flyeye, I paid £14 for a sheet and it did all the lights on the car
Works well, completely MOT legal and easy to fit, just need a hairdryer / hotgun to fit, you can see them in the pic below on the green mx.Only draw back is it collects polish if you polish your car
I did uprate all bulbs to ultra bright Xenon + LED bulbs to compensate any loss of light
-
well the "special" bulbs will be on in about 2 weeks, probably before then tbh.
will post pics of the current state of the mx too :)

checked it every other minute or so, but then made some curry, started eating that and forgot i left them in the oven :oops:
so about 30 mins at 150 celcius, and you get that effect. :lol:
(i know you put 10 mins at 250, but dont have alot of space in my oven, touched a side. Hence the melting.)
the point it melted is hardly noticeable anyway, just one of those things that i'll notice and will niggle me, but not to someone else, If that makes sense!
