Yep S2ki members.
Ones a US spec AP2, and the other is from Kuwait. I elected to have my cut off both the same (low side on low beam) as to not blind on coming motorists.
I PM'ed the Kuwait guy today.... ***ker only just sent it out last week. I paid for it nearly 4wks ago.... Still waiting on an email for a tracking number... So all my impatience with waiting for it, and he's only just sent it.... farkkkken moron.... now I have to wait another 10 days I presume to do the conversion.
Atleast this weekend I can put in my CF cooling plate, Invidia Silencers - just to see the difference :), and I may elect to put in the Invidia Test Pipe too....
-
haha nice.
yeh i was wondering about the cut off thats why.
-
u know u can just adjust the headlights up and down?
I am going to 2nd the "never again" thread!
What did you use to cut the metal Brad?
I freaken spent all day with my dremel.....OMGGGGGGGGGG...**** installing these lights is a pain in the ass and I've only done one side so far!
-
LOL, I told you it was an absolute bitch of a job.
I used a dremmel and a pair of tin snips to get to the hard to reach spots.
With the US AP2 headlights and the HID cut off that is thrown out, you can't adjust the HID beam from -\_ to _/- as the HID's can't be swapped over.
You CAN adjust them up and down (by removing the front bumper and manually lining them up with a little adjuster thingy underneath the headlight housing) but that only adjusts how high/low the light is thrown, not how the HID cut off is thrown, as they can't be changed like the Audi / BMW / Valeo HID projectors can.

I received my Invidia Test Pipe and Silencers today... Silencers are ****ing huge! And ugly! Don't think I'll be using them because of how ugly they are lol, but for $25US I couldn't disagree with that price. The Test Pipe looks brand new woot.. Just gotta decide if I wanna put it on or not - again only $50US so why not have it ay?
-
Ahah test pipe? Even I am not that hardcore!
btw, with these AP2 lights, when u have ur headlights on, so just the 1st set of LEDs is lit, do you get light going out of the side of the taillight too?
-
hey with the AP2 headlights. wouldnt it be easier just to get an aftermarket HID kit to suit?? wouldnt it make life easier?
-
Or just spend $300 and buy the AP2 HID ballasts and mount them where they're supposed to go instead? :p
I think the side is just a deflector, much like the AP2 headlights.
With the AP2 headlight, when the indicator is on, there is an orange eflector right beside it, presumably to deflect the light.
Refer to image below:

See how there is the big indicator lense on the far left, but there is also that deflector part just to the right of it. I'd assume the AP2 taillights serve the same function. That, and it beats the hell out of looking at black plastic from the side hahaha.
-
haha i see, good I just finished installing everything today!
I honestly don't think grinding the plugs etc is very hard at all if you have a dremel!!! This 2nd side took me about an hour all up from removing the old tail lights to installing the new one, the first side probably took me 4 hours or so!
-
I did the first one in about 2 1/2, and the 2nd one in about 1.
I found the plugs annoying since I used sandpaper :p

The first post in this thread doesnt make sense.
Just wondering is there proper info is on Ozhonda for the AP2 tail light update?
