i think that there is enough interest in projector housings that we should start a petition or write a company like DEPO to make a projector housing for our cars. Im positive if they made a normal looking projo housing (like no ricey angel rings) in a chrome version and a black version, they would sell a lot.

What does everyone else think?

 

man angel eyes are bad ass if i could get some i def would but either way ide like either one

 

im working on a design with apc but the interest is not there from the R&D they say

but it is hard

ive been trying to get them to make a set for over 2 years now, and now i am finally getting them to listen to me


it is hard and the money to research it is a lot thats why i will design them and hopefully sell the design to them

 

you making angel eyes or projectors?

 

see, all these aftermarket company makes ghetto looking LED angel eyes..............if we get angel eyes, i want the real BMW looking ones, not the cheapo LED rings.

I'd perfer no angel eyes then the LED ones.


Something similar to this design would be ideal........simple projo low beam, and reflector high beam.

 

CCFL DDE's or bust

 

tell them ask everyone here. I'd say more than 40-50% would get them

 

Im down for black housings with no halos

 

wow. I'd be down for some nice headlights.

That would be sweet to get a whole projector design for our car. Hope it works joe

 

yea the only problem with using real oem bmw ring you are talking big bucks

thats why there is aftermarket companies that make them, to cut the manufacturing cost down with cheap products

it may not look as well but it works

also i am going to submit a design that uses hopefully the valeo h7 projectors since you can modify them to fit d2s very easily

but it is going slow and my contact time is limited with my hours i work but it will get done


the design will get done but the implement on the companies side is up to them if it is costly enough to provide a new lone of headlights and the demand is there as well

remember all you business majors out there, key thing to having a sucessful business is your supply and most of all yoru demand.

 

wow, you have completely changed the way i feel about projectors... these are so damn CLEAN!!!!!! imma have to do it with my friends... looks like an interesting project

 

if the price is right.. ill buy it..

if the company sells it for under 200, im down

even this looks okay with me



maybe.. a little less ricier.. haha

 

Those look like they'd fit with some modification.

 

98acura3.0CL, what kind of design are you working on? dual projectors or single?

 

so your gonna just do projector? does anyone one know what cars angel eyes will fit a cl with litte mods cuz thats what i want personally

 

only BMWs come with angel eyes....or do you mean what model BMw?

 

dual projectors, D1S setup from a Audi i believe i cant remember, also come in the 300 M 2004, very rare setup, with a brand new setup of bulbs and ballasts for my hook up at osram

dont ask how i got it but i did

then the dual is a rx300 mini fog light projector fitted with a JDM yellow bulb and i will try to run it as DRL like the lexus cars, then to top it off i found some nice Halogen exterior projectors for 30 bucks, the brightest AM exterior projectors for fogights and they are halogen buls which i will switch to a nice piaa so then you got yourself a triple beam setup 2 inside one outside

then on top of that im testing out retroing in OEM bmw angel eyes with custom leds, 10k mcd and 12k mcd, i need to see what will look better, pics will come soon, the leds should be here any day


but pics are coming so are the instructions to make them, which i will give up for a small fee since this project is expensive and my writeups if you ask anyone are VERY VERY detailed, look at my Woodgrain Removal Instructions, 8 pages and 8 mbs big

the projector one i am expecting to be around the 15-20mb file, and this is a word document

so hold all your horses time is of the essence and i dont have much of it but you will be amazed when im done i know my hard will will show and my R&D for over a year and a half of designing way too many setups that would work is finally paying off now with what ive planned

 

HELL YEAH i would be down for a set... too damn nice to leave out

good luck, appreciate your endeavors

 

They do look like they'd be close, what kind of car are those from?

 

94-97 accord JDM lights...

 

LOL, someone needs to e-mail APC or DEPO with a link to this thread.

 

No APC!!! Isnt there another company that makes better quality lights?

 

id kill for some angel eyes AKA halo projectors. i was thinkin about just doin a accord conversion and gettin halos for that.(not the whole front end just the headlights.)

 

actually thinkin about it more id rather have these

 

thoes black housings look REALLY good on the darker colored CL's............but for thoes of us that have red, primrose, or the light blue, chromed housings are better.

 

You forgot white, you hater! J/k

 

well theres aftermarket ones for like integras n idk what else but what cars headlights will fit our cars without tons of mods that will look somewhat the same? will accors fit?

 

white is a good color for both...........consider your self lucky!

 

i e-mailed TYC tonight about making projectors for our car, i will post the reply that i get on monday.

 

im thinkin of blackin mine out anyway(car wheels heads tails etc.). and if they made white why not just keep chrome. i would however prefer body colored housings over black or chrome anyday. all i know is, i want something different.

 

I don't think any. I always wondered if you take the housings off an accord( cuz the headlights and corners are seperate) and mold it into ours would it work.. I don't think it would be too tuff, plus they have projector lights for the accord

 

thoes black housings look REALLY good on the darker colored CL's............but for thoes of us that have red, primrose, or the light blue, chromed housings are better.


I think theyll look good on any color not just the dark ones

 

well, here was the reply that i got from TYC about making them............



In regards to custom lamps for the Acura CL, we will not be producing lamps for this application. Unfortunately it is not possible to produce a custom run of lamps due to costs involved. I understand the demand for an new item, however the average cost of the tooling itself is about 250-300k. When an application is selected for development, we look at number of vehicles sold, currently on the road and demand. If any of these falls short, particularly the first two, then the application is not selected. I hope you understand. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks.
