THESE are the coolest projectors EVER, but who makes them?

[focusedrage]

when I casualy happend upon this picture i started screeming and dancing around the room. THese are the exact kind of projector head lamps i have been searchign for, but i dont knwo where i can get then, PRocarparts doesnt have them. ANy ideas, do you think they are home made?

 

[eclipserst]

I believe they are APC Projection II headlamps

 

[focusedrage]

where might i find them/ online? apc as in American Products Company?

 

[focusedrage]

eclipserst, thanks you hit it right on the money, i found them on nopi for 244... oh yeah im actualy hoping they dont come with bulbs cause i want those amber icy hot gold bulbs but whatever so so so so cool

 

[Tevenor]

[L2RTSiAWD]

[focusedrage]

How is the quality of APC headlights?

 

[L2RTSiAWD]

Better then most of the "Ebay" projectors.

I just got a set of black housing projectors myself. I have had white houseings for a while now, but wanted the black. I think mine are Niyame...or something close to that. Not APC, I know that for sure.

As for the bulbs...I seriously doubt the new lights will come with bulbs....they do not use (at least mine didnt) the same "size" as the factory head lights. I think the new ones use H4 or H7 (probably both).

I personally like the dual-projectors more than the single projector. I will end up getting those.

 

[focusedrage]

word to that, i dont really like the ones that still have the light thing in them...

 

[Blk95gs]

those projectors are really nice, i was thinking of getting them when i go to a 97-99 front end. are the ones on ebay really $hitty and not worth the money? cause i dont want to pay like 300 for headlights.

 

[focusedrage]

dude 300 bills for head lights? might as well grab your ankles...

i found the ones redgst97 is talking about on www.rsversion.com for 200

and agian thoes other ones on nopi for 244

Not to bad
I dont trust some things on ebay.... plus there is always bigdign and stuff

What about projector conversions or any type of conversion for that matter, for a 1st gen?????

 

[focusedrage]

hmm, i dont know...
i will offer this sugestion to make half-a$$ed Projectors
this will work if the frount covers on the stock head lights are clear like those on the 2gs:

1) Take out the back part and remove the bulbs
2) Spraypaint the whole chromed area black, or whatever color, or none (couple of coats)
3)buy as many small, round fog lights as needed to fill all the convex areas
4) atach them some how to the housing, wire it up and put it back together

NOTE: i just made this up, based on what makes sense and on what i know the 2g stockers look like, it might work? I might even try it on my headlights when i swap them for those apc ones

 

[siceclipse]

the duel projector lights that APC makes arent the same as the pic he is showing. those are custom made by taking real HID projectors and mounting them in the stock housing. dont believe me, take a closer look at both pics and you'll see the difference.

 

[Slappster]

^^^ He's right. Those are straight custom.

i was going to get the APC dual projectors wen i did my 97-99 conversion.. but wen i ran into oem lights for $150 i went for the cheaper stuff... technically not cheaper since its OEM and not APC but u know wat i mean..

anyways.. i was reading that the dual projector lights actually use the stock bulbs.. unlike the old single projector units.. also the dual projectors dont have the wiring harness so you need to remove the one from ur old headlights.. but doesnt seem like too big of a deal..

get the dual projectors.. they seem better.. not just with looks.. but also quality and using stock bulb types?
