I got done with one headlight last week, the other halo is damaged so I am waiting on a new one to come in before finishing everything.

Here are some pictures.


Both, picture taken at low exposure.

so the CCFLs and the LEDs stay on at all times? day light running?

It all comes down to how you wire them, if you have individual switches then you can have either on at what ever time.

Can the members that have received their headlights post a picture of the finished product installed on your ..? I think it would make it easier for future or potential buyers to get a better idea of what they are ordering.

To JNC, What would you say the turn around time would be if I came by and dropped off/picked up the lights personally? After browsing this site and this thread for the past few days I just noticed I am about 25 minutes from Bedford. BTW, I dont have a TL yet in the process of returning my current car back to stock so I can pickup a 3rd Gen TL.

Forgot to mention price for Blacked out/cleared-- $150 plus L.E.D. strip?

CHeck the following link to pictures

https://acurazine.com/forums/members/jnc-26894-albums-custom-headlights-jnc-586/

You can drop off the headlights and pick them up next day.

Labor for black out is $150 and LEDs paint and install is $25.

No, there isnt enough clearance to install the strip on the top.


I'll be replying to all my PMs today, I apologize for the delay.

mista.huynh's headlights

Huy, sent me his CDM headlights for work, one of the headlight had broken internals and a couple of cracks, apparently it was in an accident some time ago. Both lenses had WDP overspray, signs of oxidation, stone pitting and minor scratches, they were refinished and condition is now at 9/10 as opposed to 6/10 where they were originally.

ZKW replica lens swap
CCFLs
Blacked out V2

If anything you can have the LEDs painting to block light from them so rather than having LEDs in a OOOOOO set yo you have them in an O O O O O array.
Hey JNC,
i think i like that i mean the LED's painting to make them 0 0 0 0 0 i realy think it will look better . can you please get back to me with cost.

Paypal usually forwards an email when I print the shipping slip, I'll check on that and forward you the tracking number.


As far as the 9-3 style LEDs, there isnt enough room towards the top of the TL headlight to install the LEDs.

Sorry if this is a newbie question...

Where is everyone purchasing the LED light strips from and what kind are they? Are most people purchasing them and having them shipped directly to JNC? I am meticulously planning my assault on my tl...
