I'm more interested to see if anyone can make the ring around the projector the CCFL instead. [so it is not in or out]

Hey JnC, do you have any clear diffusers by chance?
If so I'll trade you for an extra set of Lexus ES300 fogs that I have. =]

I know that there's a thread out there with customer photos with JnC-modded headlights and there are a few color-matched ones.

I don't know who else may have asked JnC to do a blue color-match but my KBP may be as close to what you're looking for in terms of pics. (I've been meaning to take some pics of my headlights with my Canon for a while now. But until then, here are a few quick snaps with my iPhone.)





I'll try to take some with a better camera later and post.

Dont buy the CCFLs directly from umnitza, get them through their ebay vendor, I'll post link in a bit.

Ron, sorry about the delay bud, headlights did come in the other day, I am trying to figure out various options that we might go with.

Some ITR love



Did these for a local guy, he did a complete front end conversion on his IT-R but was lacking the black JDM ITR headlights. Got himself a set of chrome JDM headlights that were a bit damaged, I fixed all the problems with the lights and blacked them out at the same time.

JNC,

I see that you finished Mike421's Headlights and he was after me according to the list.

You confirmed that you receive all the parts you needed to do my headlights back in November.

Please let me know if you need anything else from me. Money is ready!

I am just making sure you did not forget about me.

Great work on his headlights by the way!

Thanks bud, starting work on your headlights soon, you need to shoot me your contact number as I have to go over a few details with you.

Only reason why mike's headlights got taken care of first is that he sent his OEM lights in for the work. Members that send their lights in for the work get priority, rightfully so as I dont want their car to be out of commission for any longer period than it'd take me to do the work.

JnC,

Dude, These rear lights are sic !!! I want a set !
Are these upgraded TL-S units swappable with the stock units from a 2005 model ?

I recieved your PM about the headlight swap & conversion.
That info was very useful, thank you.
As for upgrading the rear lights, are there secondary parts needed to upgrade to type S lights ?

Lastly, how much would a set of SSM matched rear lights run ?

Thanx again !
T

218TL I bought mine from the LIGHTWORKZ guy on ebay. He's the UMNITZA guy.Two things tho to consider when seeking this nice product when dealing with this guy. 1. Dont expect to get them right away. He takes his time sending them out. 2. dont ask him any questions (at least one that you may need answered immediately) bc he takes his sweet ass time at getting back with you on that too. It makes you mad as hell but the product is top knotch.

Lol, true.

Anatoly (sp?) aka LIGHTWURKZ is the dealer through ebay, I have been dealing with him for 2 years now and he does indeed back Umnitza's product, highly recommended even though communication is a tad slow.

When the LED V2 first came out and I did my initial testings it showed to obstruct output a lot, I had made that assumption from just test fitting the product. I will be doing proper installed testing soon as it seems like a lot people want to go the LED route.

Steven, the side emitting LEDs are pretty neat but so were the other ones that I use to install in the past. I just hope that we dont run into dependability issues as we did with the previous LED strips.



I will be responding to all the PMs and emails by tomorrow morning, again, my apologizes for the delay.

JnC, Should I send them back for the thinline? Visabillity is a strong concern. I noticed when I recieved them (the V LED"S) they looked eerilly smaller than I anticipated. Then I laid out the ZKW-R lens and gently test fitted the rings and the sat up about a 1/4 inch from the base of the lens. I'm sitting on go here and have almost $400 invested just in parts. I kinda need to hear you say something like" dont worry, I'm a bad ass, I'm gonna make this fit so you dont have to worrk about light obstruction!" Need to hear some positive talk here J, I sent you pm too btw. need a little reply on that if you can ! THX man
