youve been getting a whole lot of mods done to your car lately. when are you going to post some pics? I want to upgrade my tail lights as well, but installation is supposed to be a pain in the ass. how much did you pick your tail lights up for if you dont mind my asking?

lols. no pics till its completed. just want everything to be done asap...
i picked them up for 370USD shipped. 2nd hand but they look brand new. u hunting for one?
u know anyone who can do head and tail light conversions for a decent price?

$370 shipped? thats pretty good! was that off s2ki.com or somwhere else? the shipping alone would have cost them a bit? and at that sort of price I certainly am looking for a set. they give the car a much more modern look.

sorry though, I dont know anybody who can do the install. Im sure theirs got to be somebody on here from sydney who'll put their hand up though. good luck with it all

u want me to ask the guy for another set?
yeah it was 300 for the set and 70 for shipping. grabbed it straight away.
yeah hopefully aye. cant wait to get them on. apparently i need to cut stuff out but i cant picture myself hacking at my car.. =[

if you need it, here's the s2ki DIYs:

$370 for now would prob be about my budget. In the future idbe happy to pay upto 600 but in the last few weeks I've baught a hks exhaust and shine bumper so I can only justify buying things at absalute bargain pricing from now on while I build my savings back up lol

definitely get the ap2 tails if you can afford it, makes the car look a whole lot more modern IMO

I would love some AP2 headlights! I've got taillights so need to complete the set haha!

Oh yeah, anyone know how much an AP2 front bumper costs from honda here? They're like $200 or $250 or something from the US brand new! Too bad its not cheap/easy getting a bumper shipped here from there :p

$499 for a set of ap2 headlights, thats a bargain! man I wish I had some extra cash right now! make sure you ask him if he has anymore tail lights too :)

AP2 bumpers are pretty pricey from honda. correct me if Im wrong, but I think from memmory their about 800 and thats unpainted. your better off getting an after market bumper

hmm, try the US for lights and wind deflectors.. i found them cheaper there...especially with the parity dollar now. i bought for wind deflector for $90USD shipped off ebay back in 2008...and the dollar was crap.

I just got a set of AP2 tail lights off a guy on s2ki for $400 including shipping :) I put a WTB add on s2ki.com saying I was willing to pay $400 and 3 differant people contacted me, 2 with proof pics (pics of the product with their user name and todays date next to it) and I got a set that look brand new. If anybody else is looking for a cheap set let me know and I'll give you the other guys usernames on s2ki who were wanting to part with them for cheap

yeah, quite a few in UK FS s2ki thread. problem is you need a donor AP1 steering wheel for because the VGS spline is different. search s2ki for VGS conversion.

You'll need more than 1..... LOL.

hm.. guys, I did the conversion but for some reason my tailbrake lights dont seem to connect and work properly..

any suggestions?

I have moved them on a slight angle (but it wont hold) and they work.

Anyone who has a spare ap2 connector for the lighs and would like sell em// let me know =)
