We are happy to say - it's 75% complete.
Those of you that will be at the meet tomorrow, will get a glimpse of it

 

 

perhaps this is a stupid question, and I'm missing something obvious...but what is the point of having HIDs in the reverse lights, since they are really not on all that often? Most people (me not included) don't even bothering changing their reverse bulbs to Polargs or PIAAs (which cost like $20), so would people pay alot more than that for HID reverse lights?

perhaps designing an integrated rear fog light for the maxima would be a more useful/practical application....just a thought....not flaming.

 

that, and one can get basically the same effect using Polarg M6 bulbs in the reverse lights

 

That migh just be the camera for that bulb being so dim. If it was an HID should it not being bright as hell

 

Waste of money and time.

 

Now, again, in English please?

 

besides doesnt it take time to warm up the bulb anyhow???
i am usually done with reverse in about 15-20 seconds

 

i agree

 

ok, here's a link to help you with some of the questions you have:
http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthr...15#post3022815

 

HID sounds a bit overkill. 35W halogen is alright I guess, but that isn't as intensive.

 

Irish

Is the output (on the road at night) really that great out of a reverse reflector? You should post some night pics and not just of the light its self.

Just seems kinda wasteful to me.

:edit: Wow, this post got big while I was typing!

 

smaller bulbs light up faster.

 

seems cool, especially if you got dark tints and cant see a damn thing when reversing, only question, how much?

 

Not 100% sure yet

 

i guess these are really OVERKILL ... but isnt modding the point of being different and doing things that you want. he isnt MAKING anyone buying theses, he is just showing what else is being made out there. these do seem a little bit much but to someone, these may just seem cool or something they like.

i think they are cool. but dought ill be buying any.

 

that thread appears to be talking about angel/demon-eyes, not reverse lights.....or am I again missing something?

 

These are for people like myself who run DARK (13% is not dark, 10% is not dark...im talking less than 5% light transmission here) tint and wish to be able to reverse without having to roll windows down.

 

De-basing an H3 bulb will yield the same results. I've seen it done on a 5th gen.

 

Arnold, I think you really should just mount one of these on the back:

175 watts of backing-up visibility

 

I'm not seeing the point of this reverse HID at all. Even if one could use it as a foglight, wouldn't that be annoying as hell to the drivers behind you??

 

For sick HID guys who wants to waste some $$$$

 

this is pretty ridiculous.

How about HID blinkers...

sheesh.

 

it's ridiculous, but it's cool. too bad i dont have money to waste

i just wanna get blinded by a random car in a parking lot with these haha

 

You guys may think it's overkill and/or rediculous, but some people wil actually buy it (minus me) .

 

Arnold you should try this

$3.99 ea

 

Hahaha.

 

Hey anyone have the AE headlight part number 2001 Max?Cant find anywhere.

I agree with Irish 100%, besides how often do you back up in a real DARK area that you cannot see S$it. I don't know but to me it wil be a waste of money....

 

a HID reverse light? thats just plain silly

 

if you guys have nothing better to spend 300$ on, then go head and buy it.

 

Yeah, those sound cool! I can't wait for the HID dome light, or the HID guage lights, or the HID mirror lights, or the HID map lights, or the other interior HID super hot white lights. I'll probably have to run my A/C on high though so I don't cook myself in my easy-bake car. Not even double super duper dark limo tint will prevent outsiders from seeing my super cool rice-a-roni mobile. Awsome!

P.S. Lets get moving on those HID side marker lights too, so I can blind those coffee can muffler rice-a-roni driving kweers.

 

yup waste of money

 

i want some hid washer nozzles.

 

Screw that, I want some HID motor oil so I can see where I'm pouring it in the middle of the night. :attention

 

I can see the usefulness. With my tint I cant see **** when I back up. I may very well buy these if the price is right and I know a few other people that will too.

 

somebody obviously didn't read sticky rule #15 or whatever it was...

 

Somebody obviously has no idea what they are talking about, NoRegard is a club not a shop. Nice try though.

 

I've spoken with him about it

 

what a waist. By the way umnitza when am I going to get my refund for the d2r bulbs. I have been waiting almost a month now. I know you have received them back from me and you are just telling me that you havent.

NOT COOL AT ALL.
