New Lighting for the Bird - Bi-Xenon Projector Retro
 

Revised my headlight setup on the bird this weekend. Been tinkering with improvements for the past month and the devil is in the details. This could be nearly OEM quality. Everything is now plug and play while allowing adjustment like stock.

WIN!

Looks great Brian. I wish more people would take the time to upgrade their lighting properly.

Thanks! It's not cheap to do but I agree. If you drive at night, good lighting may be just as important as good brakes depending on where you drive.

Yup....I do close to half of my driving in the dark. Silverstar drop ins were the first mod I did on my Jeep only because I can't afford any better upgrades at the moment. H4 halogens hopefully coming this summer with an upgraded harness.

that is freakin ****!

Is that a black G8 V6 in the corner of one of those pictures?

I need to do that. My lights are horrible. Looks great

Looks good!!!

Good eye on it being a G8. It's my friends GXP with V6 tails. He actually just put on his new magnaflow axle-backs to complement his catted ARH LT system. In addition he put on Camaro 20's which he had custom widened to 10" in the rear. Car looks amazing.

i brake check people with bright lights and go slow in front of them on purpose. especially in no passing lanes. :nod:

damn i wish they made a kit like that for my 96 camaro. even with the aftermarket headlights i have it still difficult to see sometimes

he made that kit himself. big props on them, i just hate bright lights. bothers me to no ends :nod:

now we all know you love attention but are you ****ing serious? that cut off is sharper than 90% of the cars on the road and puts the light only where it needs to be. a standard halogen headlight would appear brighter than these in terms of scatter. dumbass.

i understand. its the actual brightness that bothers me. so yes i do exactly what i stated earlier. i honestly think those lights should be illegal.

Thanks for the compliments but you are missing the point of a proper HID setup. The cutoff is to make sure you don't blind oncoming traffic while it steps up to provide greater viewing distance. If you notice above the cutoff, there is absolutely no stray light to blind anyone. SUVs with OEM HID projectors sometimes come adjusted a little on the high side and can be blinding depending on the situation.

If you are still getting blinded, stop looking right at the projectors.

The lights you won't like are the HIDs in halogen housings which scatter the light everywhere.

BWAHAHAHA! Awesome.

They do look sharp man..real sharp!

amazing brian... did you ever decide to sell these kits for the 93-97 birds.... if not would you be interested in making a set up for my car? i know you were feeling it out on ls1tech. these are something i would deff like to do sometime in the future.

Thanks! I'm currently feeling out interest to put this into production. Tough market to sell this kind of product so we will see.

Awesome job, looks great!

It's official. I'll happen to leave the vert at your house for a few days in the future.

Ya the stock lights in F-bodies are pretty terrible, to the point that its unnerving when im hustling down a dark road. Anyway your set up looks amazing. How much does this kind of thing cost in the end?

I felt the same way and I can't tell you how many different setups I've had in the car until now. When I did something like this before, the cost was up there in terms of actual component costs ($500+). This did not include custom making the lens, mounting system etc. If I decide to sell these, I will become a sponsor and release pricing. Like anything else, you get what you pay for.

Looks great Brian. Can't wait to see what you can come up with for us 1st gen camaro owners!! Keep up the good work.

Thats a whole lot of money but its probably worth it so that a tree doesnt sneak up on me at night. i would most definitely be interested in a kit like this
