Well, I thought of starting a new thread each time I have question, I'm just going to continue with my old thread with new questions. SO, for those of you that are willing to help me, please go to the last page of my thread for the new questions I may have or new pictures of my projects.



Well here are some teaser pics of my hard work and effort into these.

Feel free to comment.
I did partially take the idea from Max0224, but I've been planning on doing this for awhile, even before he posted his pics.

 

points for the work but imho they'd look really good if you put them in r34's with retro'd dual projectors - spendy though...
can't wait to see the outcome.

 

lights look sick are you offering your services

 

Looks nice. I don't like how Audi put theirs in this stupid curve, yours looks much better IMO.

Good job, keep up the hard work.

 

A write up would be nice . I'm sure it's not crazy hard, but you know....

 

Props for uniqueness....I'll be looking forward to seeing the final product.

 

Toshi, stop wasting your Sakuma paycheck on visual mods and put the money into performance mods. In all seriousness, it looks good. I'll have to see them in person though when your finished.

 

Looks terrible, you should finish them, send them to me, and start over

J/k good job man, can't wait to see them.

 

nice work... i want to see some finishing pictures

 

now that is sick as hell, you should do them to the r34's i would definitely pay for that to be done to mine all around the r34

 

Different, your pairing this up with some projector retros right?
Not sure how those LEDs are going to tie in withthe rest of the Maxima lighting, ie. the clearance lights and bumpers. If you could get them all to match color wise it would really pull them all together.

 

Thanks guys for the compliments.

For service, lets just say I'm not doing work for others, but let me think about it.

I was thinking about buying the one piece headlights, but decided it wasn't worth it at the time or the money cause I didn't know how the outcome will be. I'll consider the one piece headlight after I'm done with this one.
I wish I had the money to retro some projectors in my headlights, but I don't.
If I was going to retro projectors in, I was thinking of doing it kind of your style.
One main projector and one small one.
What size is your main projectors? Also HIDplanet discontinued their mini h3 light... d*mn!t
The color matching with the LED is going to be fun, I'm planning on using PWM maybe to work with matching the colors. I don't know if I'm going to put LED in the bumper lights yet. We'll see.

I'll give you a call after I'm done to SHOW OFF my work.. LOL
How is your baby doing?

 

I have a set of h3 mini's lol

 

waiting for final product but looks good so far

 

Looks good. We're definitely gonna need a write up.

 

Three words... I Want Them... looks real good

 

co-sign nice work

 

I want some pics of them on thos are freakin sweet. nice work +1

 

Well here are some more teaser pictures cause I'm still not done with them.
Had a little issue with fitment after I had everything together.

To test the LED if they work I used a DC 3.7V battery, and then I connected it to the car battery 12V. WOW a big difference..

Here are the pics

tested with car battery during the day, in the garage.


3.7V battery.


close up shot of the passenger headlight.


car battery again, with all of the headlight stuff back together, but not sealed yet.

 

Next thing I will be doing are the parking lights (corner lights)

 

that is sick...!

 

looking damn good. mad props, yo.

 

interesting indeed.
what kinda leds are you using? 3mm, 5mm, SMTs?

like what everyone else said, it would flow and i think look a hella lot better w/ the r34 housing w/ projectors...

 

looking very clean keep us posted

 

Thanks everyone.
I'll try to keep you guys up to date, but I work and go to school so, not much time. Especially this kind of small work needs a lot of lot to work during the day.

As everyone suggested doing this to a r34 style headlights, anyone want to donate a set of r34 style headlights, so I can do some measuring and come up with a prototype?

 

Would love some distance pic. So far...i gotta admit it looks noice though. I would love to see the final product though. Great Job guyz.

 

Nice work, ive been wanting to do this, but dont have the time or money right now since I have to replace my tranny. What kind of leds did you use?(size, MCD, brand) Write-up would be sweet : ) Great job once again!

 

That looks very nice. IMO, even if you didn't do the corners, it'll still look pretty nice.

How/what are you wiring them to? Will they come on with the parking lights?

David

 

those look sick, im in for the write up.

 

Well got some good news and 1 bad news.

The proto type for the headlights failed.
Stupid headlights have a small ledge where my board did not fit when I try to close it.

Good news is I'm making a new one, and on top of that I finished my corner lights.

 

i would like to do this, i was thinking about taking apart these led bars and using the strips for the leds so it would be simple to hook up. thanks for the inspiration

 

I'm using 3mm LEDs.

The final product will probably be on Sunday, if everything goes well for the next few days. Have a test coming up this friday which I have to study for.

I will also include pictures taken from a distance of the final product.

The LEDs are off of ebay from HONGKONG.
They are 13000MCD, brand ...... hong kong? China has a lot of fake products so I don't know..

Write up will be a maybe, but I have to say it's a B1tch and a half making these.

I'm thinking of wiring them independently, so I can turn them on and off when ever I feel like it.
Do you have any suggestions?

Also by the time you posted you comment on I don't need to do my corners, I already had them on my car.LOL

 

i would wire them to a toggle switch, or something like that

 

Nice work but its more rice for the bandwagon

 

damn bro that looks f'n sweet... you need to write a writeup!!!

 

cool in theory but it doesn't look great in application imo. might look better once you do the clearance lights.

r34s are whack.

 

i would pay over 300 for some one to do this to my head lights.

 

are you serious? Its $1 worth of leds wired together inside the headlight housing...and then possibly wired to the parking lights. All you do is open the headlights, put some leds in a row wired together, wire it to the parking light, close up the lense...its not hard.

Im not trying to put down the OP cause the workmanship looks great, but for those asking for a write-up...come on...i guess i just gave you one.

Oh ya...for $300 Ill do your lights. Pm me if you are serious cause I am. I have alot of LED experience and Ive opened headlights before.

 

Heck naw!

 

I wanna see so outside pics i cant wait and a write up would be nice
