That looks really really nice. Where did you get those projectors? I was considering taking a vinyl sticker, pop 2 holes out of em and place it over the stock lights but i'm worried about lighting/visibility issues. I like what you did though, definatley looks different and really good.

Those look amazing man, really nice!

I like it, but I think it looks like Johnny number 5 from Short Circuit.

Thanks for the comments!

I got them from a Lexus at the junkyard for 12 dollars. also don't put a vinyl sticker on the stock lights because it will severely reduce your lighting output because your reducing you total reflector area, not to mention it would only put out a narrow focused beam reducing visibility.



Also if anyone is interested in how these are mounted i can take more pics. they are just bolted in using the stock mounting location "basket" and the only thing that had to be modified was a little chunk cut from right behind the light for clearance and access for the bulb in the down position.

i am interested in how you bolted them on if you maybe could post up a how to article that would be sweet

Honastly i dont remember the exact model, i was just walking threw the yard and noticed the lights staring at me. next thing i knew i was taking a ball peen hammer to it to extract the goods.

It was a single projector one, because the dual projector ones i extracted from other models are joined together and would have needed major modification to work.

Are those christmas lights on your front bumper?

Creative. How are the projectors mounted in the "bracket"? Im wondering what glare is like to. Post some night pics, and don't forget to turn on the Xmas lights.

ok well, i'm assuming that the lexus had flip up head lights. Think you can guesstimate a year?

no it had regular headlights, probly around a 96 i would assume. it looked older but newer if you get what i mean.

Got some night pics up now

does anyone know if the 2005 LEXUS RX-330 projectors will work? hey Sivad87, what's the diameter of your projector?

How much?

Yeah, whoever aligned your front end did a terrible job.

Nice job on the lights. You should take a few more night shots so you can make a nice avatar.

ok which one of these was it (if any):

Actually after searching for a long while i found the car i got them off of. a daewoo laganza


i had torn apart some lexus headlights but now i remember that they wouldnt work for the mounting (dual projectors fixed together not seperatly. see pic)
sorry i got confused on which car i got them from


hope this helps if you are trying to source parts for it, and if anything would lower the cost

Oh trust me as soon as i can edit my profile and have my trans fixed im going to take it out to some nice spots and finally get some good pics of the car. also they are going to recieve angel eyes for the added touch in the near future.

awesome, i have one sitting at my dad's shop thanks how about a short write up on how to install them, if you can that is.

Thats not a problem, it esentially is a bolt in thing. i will do an extensive wright up tomorrow with pictures of mounting and dissasembled parts.

So where's the write-up?

Could we get all three dimensions on those projectors? It looks like (with minor modifications) you could go doubles, minus the weatherstripping around the outside edge, or with thinner stripping.
Does this maintain pop-up capability? If not, would it be possible if the shinethrough lenses were trimmed to allow the projector lens passage?

Thats an awesome job man,I like those alot and if I still had my 91 I'd be searchin junkyards.

They almost look like they're supposed to be there,clean looking
