Like the subject says. I need some pics of HIDs with a clear lense and without. Thanks. =)

 

ill post some pics for ya after i install mine this weekend.

 

cleared directionals

 

Hey, you willing to do another install? I have the Malibu lights and the stealth turn signals....can't find anyone to help me. Oh yea, also have DataDots.

 

what are you doing this sunday? everyone who wants me to install them never comes. u just want me to do the clear directionals, not the DDE's? i have the dots aswell

 

So far, I am doing nothing on Sunday. Let me know a time and PM me directions, I will be there. (No DDEs)

 

No DDE's Piece of cake, PM being sent

 

Great pics, Bugbite.

Now for pics without a lense.

 

Arnold, you can check out my car after I get the lights done on Sunday.

 

isnt there a BIG thread on this? the one in the how-tos? ive seen pics of both.

 

yeah but thoes old threads get hard to find and packed with messages that take to long to sift through, i dnt see anything wrong with starting a new one to get a quick answer

 

Sunday is when I'm getting them installed. And tomorrow they're getting cleared by PoLo. I'll be picking them up on Saturday from Marco's and then on Sunday going to Sam's for the install. wOot!

both^

with lens.

 

not very clear, i dont have any of em really with the lights off but heres some with both polarg hyper whites and ambers.





But then again arnold im sure you seen my car at the meets.

 

I wonder if I could just push the amber lense in, stick pliers into the housing, crack the amber lense into bits and remove the pieces?

 

Yeah, I think I'm feelin the non-lense look myself. Is it possible to remove the top lense as well?

 

heres the orange. and you know, i never thought about removing the top lense... hmm.

 

i dont remember if you could take out the top lens.......hmmmmmmmmmmm... i could let you know sunday when i open up mac's headlights, but i dnt know if it even has the reflective background like the directional does?

 

I like the clean look of the malibu lens myself




it matches the other lense really well....

 

This mod is not really hard at all. I know people are afraid of ruining these expensive headlamps, but believe me, it's really simple. Send them to me, I'll clear them for you. Here are my pics. I'm going to add the '02-'03 bumper next, because the lights look alot better on these bumpers than the '00-'01's.

 

I have someone doing it for me, thanks.

And I prefer the 00/01 bumper. I don't like the lower grille on the redesigned bumper. I just replaced the emblem on the grille with the new Nissan emblem and it looks very, very nice.

 

^^ it's EXTREMELY easy...at 200*, you can leave them in there for a pretty long time....i have a detailed how-to on my home page that clarifies some of the small questions i had during my installation....

cardomain has been really lately, so the pictures aren't up, but you get the idea: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/695690/5

 

 

jim,

what time are you guys meeting up sunday cuz I need to get mine fixed hit me up

 

I have them w/out the lens. On my Pearl I think it looks awesome. I have the chrome bulbs that blink amber b/c I think it looks better than having the housing reflect blue. I haven't been able to upload pics to cardomain for a while, but if you need them you can PM me your email.

 

Cleared turning signal without malibu lense. PIAA xtreme white signal bulbs:


Check website for more pics.

 

10 am ish brother, come on down and ill take care of it

 

Yeah, I'm definitely feeling the non lense look.

 

well arnold, you could theoreticly break that lens apart from the directional bulb opening, its just held in by 3 tabs, but if you ever wana go back 2 stock, you wount have the lens to put back in. what ever i do to my car, i always do it so i can go back to stock if ever needed. just my philosophy

 

Heh, I don't really think it'd be a big deal to break the lense and never be able to use it again. I'd probably end up throwing it out. So once I get home, I'm going to see if I could just pop the tab out, break it and remove it.

 

IMO this is how i would do it, DO EVERYTHING WITH THE LAMP UPSIDE DOWN, so youdont have orange lens pieces in your lamp, take a drill bit and spinn it by hand to make a hole in the lens (createing a week point to start the break) hook something through the holl and use a small screwdriver to push the tabs (3) holding the lense in, pull the hook towards you untill the orange lense is unhooked and then break it apart somehow.

 

If I just pushed in on the lense would it pop INSIDE the housing? Does it just pop right out? If it does, then I'll just stick pliers in and crack the lense into pieces -- and just shake the pieces out of the hole.

Sound right?

 

the lens only comes out toward the back of the houseing, it will not go foward

 

Malibu lense rocks!

Before new bumper

After new bumper

 

Ahhh, then I would have to suction it out. Gotcha.

 

Dude, just bake the lights and open them up. It is scary at first but I've done it twice and it really is not hard at all. Once you heat up the glue you can pry it open with a flat head and your hands. The orange lens is held on by 3 tabs, you can use that same flat head to push the tabs out a bit to release the lens.

It would be a bigger PITA if you don't open the housing.

 

Yeah, I know. My boy PoLo is going to do it for me today. =)

 

Let the clearing commence. The drop off was made. =)

 

how about frosted lens with stock bulbs?

Love the frosted lense look too -- almost looks like a mini-projector.
