I'll start off:





sorry about the bad picture quality guys

 

 

 

Damn those red DDEs are INSANE...

 

the red looks pretty cool.. but reminds me of darth vader jkjkjk.. but seriously it looks cool..

 

 

How did you get such good pics??? Mine are so bright that the pic is not clear

 

Thanks guys.....

 

 

Those red DDE's look evil as hell! I love it!

 

Here's my fogs.

 

I love the DDE's. Where do you get them?

 

http://www.umnitza.com

Look for him on the org too... username "Umnitza"

 

 

misiek how come yours are so blue? just curious as to why they are different than the traditional DDE's i've seen

 

i got them off ebay and they're like the red ones Mass_Media has but instead blue... they acutally look alot more blue in person

 

are those the hella optilux 2500's?

 

Ive always been amazed by the quality of your pics maximapolak.... I havent figured out how to get a clear pics of the ddes ever. all of mine dont show up, either over or underexposed... no matter the camera shutter speed

 

Those are what I need to match the blue LEDs I have in my corners.

Looking sick bro

 

That pic is SO sick

 

More pics on my site.

 

I need to take better pics when spring comes. What kind of camera do you have, Polak?

 

Housecor, you are such a help to this forum. Thanks for all your how-to's. They have made a substantial improvement to the looks of my car and the way it drives.

 

anyone got pics of those ebay projectors for 2000-2001?

 

Thanks man! Glad all the work has proved to be useful!

 

Damn I need to install these bishes. They have been sitting in my room for about 2 months waiting for me to find some install time. I'm a little scurred of taking my headlights apart and not resealing them properly. I've seen plenty of write-ups and housecor you are the man. You have a wealth of great info on your site. Thanks

 

again Housecor, you ROCK for the "how to's".

 

ok so if you have angel eyes put on your headlights do you still use the HID bulb or just the ring light bulb??
PARDON MY NOOBNESS!

 

Oooh oooh, wait, allow me......

Wow, that felt good. Glad I got here first....

In short shozo....you wire the ring into your parking light switch so you can run with or without your headlights

kthx!

J

 

Are you trying to imply that the angel eye halo could provide enough light for someone to be able to drive with ONLY the halo on?

 

All of these cars look sooo nice. I think I'm gonna buy a pair of 2002 hids (if i can find them cheap enough and be satisfied that they are not stolen) and then bake them and do the dde mod. <---- Easier said than done but still my plan. Anyone have any ideas by the way on how to tell if headlights you're going to buy are stolen? I was thinking cut connectors or small cracks or chips around the edges? Thanks

 

These are next on my list of mods.

 

Just so you and max570 know, the HID headlights cost a MINIMUM of 12k if you get them from nissan, so if you find them for $500 somewhere- yeah, they're stolen. On top of that, you're looking at couple hundred for the ballasts and wiring kits, and another few hundred on top of that for the DDE's. So, if you have money flowing out your ears, go right ahead. Otherwise just keep drooling like the rest of us.

 

nooo, i want to be the only 5th gen with the angel eye set up around here =\

LoL

 

Woah, they're not that pricey. IIRC, most reports price them around 1400 from the dealer.

 

You can get the HIDs headlights and housings from CourtesyParts http://www.courtesyparts.com. They run for about $1,375.00 (not 12k)

Installing the 5.5gen headlights in a 5th gen requires some modification I believe. Ask around on the ORG, because i've seen a few that've had it done.

And then you could order a lighting kit from Umnitza or something to top it off, and then of course the DDE's!

So realistically it'd probably run you in the $1,600 - $2,000 price range.

 

Anyone knows the diameter of those rings? I know that those for the low beams are bigger than high beams but which size?

Thanks.

 

 

Italiano sweet you're from Albany...

I probably wouldn't go to the dealership on this one, but thanks ressling for the info on courtesy nissan. I was thinking about an aftermarket replica set (all philips bulbs and ballasts) or picking up headlights one by one. I plan on making the halos myself, so I might need another headlight when I destroy the 1st one in the oven....

I'm not in a huge rush, I still have some research/shopping around to do. I do love the way it looks though, everyone's car in the pictures looks awesome!

 

I think yellow ddes would look good especially on black housings.
