haha there wasnt that much snow, like a 1/2 inch or so of lake effect, but it sucks when you got to lay in it and wrench on your car, so i waited til a bit later when the sun came out and melted it off, just had to lay on a tarp bc the ground was soaked, but really i am pleased with the new look, especially at night, i just got to go out and get some silverstars now, no rush though, as the car wont b back on the road til april.

I got some clear side markers on eBay... but be prepared to shell out a few bucks. I've been told they're not DOT legal so you can't find them just anywhere. I don't know, just what I've heard. But I got my side markers on eBay.

Hi Guys,
Ordered mine tonight. Can't wait to get them into my vert. I am also in the process of the H4 conversion. I bought the Sirrius housings. I am waiting for the wiring harness from Summit. I'll post pics hopefully next week.....

camaroguy21

Sounds great. Wish I would have posted this sooner so you could have saved a few bucks- I found a seller on e-bay who routinely lists the APC wiring harness at 99 cents with no reserve. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-A...QQcmdZViewItem Hope this helps a few of you save a couple $$. - Josh

its probably going to be a little while my front spoiler got scrubbed so i have to get it repainted... sucks b/c i just got the whole car painted.

camaroguy21

Sorry to hear that... I sure it will look great when it's done. What are your future plans for the car?

shades69x

Pics just out of the box.....I put a std bulb I had laying around in them....

maroon88iroc

iTrader: (7)

i bought the blue silverstar bulbs that flash orange for the parking lights to match the headlights. i also bought a t5 for it and i have a new rearend to put in at the same time so those are going to be two major upgrades back to back. i wanted a t56 but at this time i just cant afford it. im trying to find a nice set of billet emblems that i like that arent way expensive i want individual letters like sinisters car but no one is offering that that i can find. after that idk its up in the air. im still in high school and i already blow all my money on the car so im sure when i get some real income coming in it will be ALOT bigger badder and sexier.

im soooo getting new head lights and parking lights

pearl_iroc

hey guys i just ordered those clear parking lights and was just wondering if you all got them from ebay or this site http://www.racerwheel.com/rt101101.html (the same as the guy who started this tread)

Sinister Z

I got mine from the link that you posted

pearl_iroc

ok cool, i also ordered them from the link but i got no responce from them so i was getting a little worried, so i called them today and apparently there low on stock..........o well.... i guess i will just have to wait

shades69x

Here are some pics to compare the right(old) to the left(new).....

dubcity

anyone have pics of the clear park lights on a white car with silverstar bulbs?

shades69x

I couldn't get further back, I was in the garage. The mixed headlights are because I am still in the middle of the headlight conversion....but it does show the difference well......

maroon88iroc

are you doing the apc harness as well? how is it going anything i should look out for. ive been so busy but im wanting to start my install soon.

dubcity

ordered new headlights today, noww just parking lights and side markers woo

shades69x

Yes I bought the APC harness. I also bought a streetwires fuse block and some 6 ga wire. I am having trouble finding a connector to attach to the battery for the 6ga wire, plus I am worried about it looking like a hack job.

saw those on ebay the other day... still not sold on them. anyone have a decent day light shot that isn't right on them?

rwdtech

ppl dont know how to take pics.... does anyone have them on a red car with amber bulbs inside and stock foglamps, headlamps, etc

dubcity

stock head lamps, but not stock foglights...but you get the point
i dont like the look with just the parking lights, thats why i ordered headlights
then once i get those in im ordering the parking lightss

maroon88iroc

iTrader: (7)

quick question... did any of you guys have to cut out some of the metal behind the actual light? its the round hole that the headlight wire comes through? these new headlights i got dont seem to want to sit in there good so i think i have to make that hole a good bit bigger so the light will sit all the way in there.

camaroguy21

Yeah, you need to cut out a larger circle on the backs of the metal housings in order to get the headlights to fit. Quick and easy if you have a dremel tool. By the way, your car looks a thousand times better than the one I had in high school (87 Camaro SC 2.8).

iTrader: (25)

is that on the 'ebay' housings? ...because as far as I know, they're a direct fit into the hella housings.

camaroguy21

Not the e-bay lights/housings, but the actual metal housing brackets off the car that will contain the headlights. I'm not sure if all aftermarket light housings require the mod. Most probably do in order for the larger connectors on the back of them to slide through the holes in the metal housing brackets on the car.

maroon88iroc

iTrader: (7)

hey thanks man. thats what i thought but i wasnt sure if there was a trick to get them in there where i wouldnt have to cut anything out... btw are you talking to me about the car in high school?

camaroguy21

Sure thing. Yes, I was indeed giving you and your car a

well thanks man i appreciate it its come along way, but still not done yet but thats how it always goes, there will always be more to do.

I also have got the Diamond Clear Park Signal Bumper Light now. i have them at a friends house in Usa so they will arrive to sweden soon. On the picture at the racerwheels homepage the lights have bulbs but when we ordered our lights we didint get any bulbs with theme . Is it so they dont come with bulbs or maybe did they forgett to send theme ? .

maroon88iroc

iTrader: (7)

if you are talkign about the parking lights then no there wont be any bulbs but if you mean the headlights they should come with the bulbs. i hooked my headlights up last night and i love em a nice crisp white light! ill post pictures tonight.

ewwewwnotme

maroon88iroc do you have your parking lights tinted or what? Whatever it is it looks pretty kool.

90 white Z

Which ones did you buy? Where from? And how much? Were they direct replacements or did you have to buy the conversion harness or whatever? Thanks!

the swede

Thanks ! i mean the parking lights and now my friend can take it easy , she had in mind they had forgott to send bulbs .

about the headlights , i already got H4 lights we have theme standard in SWE

I saw someone asked about pics with the clear parking lights on a white iroc. when i got mine here i will take pics of my car so it will come

maroon88iroc

iTrader: (7)

wow i didnt know these lights were going to be such a pain in the ***... i ended up having to pull all the metal housing behind the lights out and cut them out, that was after i used a dremel on them with them still on the car working around my brand new paint. so ya im still not done but if i run into any more problems im not going to be happy these should have been made alot closer to the stock headlights considering they are selling them as a bolt on for camaros....

dubcity

haha he doesnt have any parking lights or signal markers in
but ill agree it looks prettty damn good
----------
so am i getting this right? the ones that camaroguy21 posted are direct replacements?
and ebay lights take modifying?
if so, screw the 10-15$ id save i dont wanna cut anything

Gr89RS

maroon88iroc

iTrader: (7)

lol ya i have no parking lights or turn signals in. i took this picture and thought it looked pretty cool and i considered tinting some stock ones but i really like the look of these new lights.

--------

i dont know about camaroguy21's lights but these need ALOT of modifications to make them work which pisses me off b/c they are selling them as replacements for stock lights i mean they could have made them closer to stock specifications... i should finish em up tonight or tomaro though and then i will post pictures.

camaroguy21

Gr89RS- Car looks great!

dubcity- My lights were not direct replacements. I had to cut out larger circles in the back of the metal bracket headlight brackets on my car in order to accomodate the larger connectors. You also have to remove the metal headlight rings and most likely the metal bracket headlight brackets themselves in order to then slide the new lights in. This part you would have to do anyway, even if you were just putting in new stock headlights. The problem here is that if you have nicely painted headlight pockets you could very easily scartch or even crack the paint.

maroon88iroc- Those are E-bay headlights right? Which seller did you buy them lights from?

DigitalMonarch0

This is the first time that I've stumbled across this particular thread. Lost of good information here and I'm definitely doing the headlight AND the parking light mods.

Can anyone post a picture of the housing themselves? Also, can anyone post pictures of anyplace you've had to make a modification to get the headlights to fit? I'm sure that I could just play it by ear, but any previews I can get are always good.

Thanks!
