crerar Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I was wondering if anybody has any experience with these headlights or anything like them. http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-AMBER-TURN-SIGNAL-LED-HALO-ANGEL-EYE-HEADLIGHT-CRYSTAL-CLEAR-LIGHT-BULBS-PAIR-/330968232162?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3ANissan%7CModel%3A280Z&hash=item4d0f3e70e2&vxp=mtr I want to update my turn signal lights and would like the look of these so I can remove my turn signals out of my 280 grill and fabricate a plate to fill in the grill area. I am also thinking I could use flush mount side marker lights that are made for Rockcrawlers. My brother put some on his Jeep and they look pretty nice. They come in different sizes and I think I could make them fit with a tiny bit of trimming around the hole. I am trying to update the lights to LED and HID. I am aware that these are not HID headlights. The built in turn signal is what mainly caught my eye. I would like to find a good HID kit that won't blind other drivers. Or if any of you guys have a suggestion for a bulb replacement for the H4 headlight that can give me the same color/look and brightness, for driving purposes, of HID headlights. That would be another option. I know the headlight upgrade question has been asked before and I have searched and found some good info before posting. So please if my post is in the wrong forum let me know and I will do my best to fix it. I am new to this stuff. Looked at forums for a while, just never posted on them.

Tony D Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I saw them, but they seared my retinas out...so now I don't see much,,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crerar Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) What's up buddy? I take it they are like the projector ones? Any suggestion on turn signal upgrades. I'm sure i'll catch crap from the purists but, it is my car . I would like to modify it to have a more modern look. I'm looking at rectangular LED marker lights for a trailer. They have a rubber grommet around them that would allow it to have a flush appearance. I would be trying to put those in the side marker light location. I'm still thinking about how to "update" the front turn signal. I have access to a CNC plasma cutter that I was gonna use to make a grill replacement. Maybe I can integrate something into that.

bens1088 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 This: http://www.dapperlighting.com/collections/projector-headlights/products/7-classic-projector Put an LED amber bulb in the city light and wire to your turn signals. Pros: TONS of light output Cons: $$$ This: http://www.dapperlighting.com/collections/projector-headlights/products/7-inch-round-diamond-cut-headlight-w-turn-signal Pros: $, built in turn signal Cons: Meh light output compared to the projectors + HIDs.

crerar Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 I have read some bad reviews of "projector style" headlights. Most of them aren't that expensive though. That may show in the quality. As far as the built in turn signal. I think I can fabricate a grille and integrate in some turn signals to give it a better look. I will look into those projector lights though. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I got an HID kit through Motorsport Auto a couple years ago. Not sure if they still sell them but the company is still in business. I'm just getting ready to install them. I'll post how they work once I get it done. Also going to ZLEDlights who has LED conversions for all the rest of the exterior lights on my 280Z. Looking forward to having 21st century lighting on the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatwad Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 If these are like on my brother's Sierra, you can change the bulb in the halo. These would look awesome with an amber bulb in the halo and hooked up to the turn signals!
