martini Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) you are a brave man, not for cycling to work but for posting the 2 locations where you might find your supra on any given day, both of which are in Manc!! It'll only ever be in one location, underground and very secure, but none-the-less, I will remove the picture. Not really brave, more stupid; however the circle is large enough that someone would have to had walked around quite a large area, in many of the underground parking bays, past more expensive, faster cars with satnavs left in them, before finding mine Edited July 22, 2009 by martini (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Not to my tastes (Can't stand the vileside kit), but have to agree with a few of the previous posts, the headlights really need sorting out. Refurbed facelift style lights are easy enough to do DIY and only cost a few quid and an afternoons work. Makes a world of difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marbleapple Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Facelift lights would make a massive improvement though. Agreed! I love the look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are thinking about new lights i would recommend getting glass and then facelifting them. The facelifts do look far better than pre-facelifts in my opinion so i opted for the best of both worlds. You can ignore the angel eyes as i know they won't be to everyones taste, but these are glass pre-facelifts that i have facelifted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be interested in helping me facelift my lights? I could exchange something for a sterling effort... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Where did you get the glass from? Would you be interested in helping me facelift my lights? I could exchange something for a sterling effort... The glass? I got a set of UK headlights and then facelifted them Not sure if i'm allowed to offer a re-furbishing service without being at least a hobbyist bud? Pretty sure guys on here already offer that service Time is a bit of an issue too, i can only do sets of them when i am on backshift.... which happens to be next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martini Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Sure no problem. I did contact someone on the forums that does the light refurbs, but I haven't had a reply as of yet. Do you have a picture and explanation of how to get the headlights OUT of the car? I can't seem to find that detail! I don't even know how to take the bulbs out! Sorry for the thread hijack, OP.

jihwaan Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Gettin the headlights out is not hard... Just have a good look at the back of 'em in the engine bay you can see all the mounting nuts, just disconnect the plugs (some unplug some twist out the globe assembly) and voila.. if u go slow and just check everything its actually pretty easy..
