How can i order a set? from Nine8six?

Here's Fred's website:
The ultimate bi-xenon headlight retrofit kit for Sport & Super cars I'd PM particlewave on the best way to get them installed. I.e. have Fred send them directly to him, or whatever. |

I'm starting to think those look better with the headlight interior left stock color with the projector skirt/shroud thing in black. No? As-is, just like on your pictures. I think they look splendid |
Thanks buddy!
I agree about the interior. Black looks cool now, but will it in a few years? OEM interior looks amazing and always will! Here are some shots of the Luminoso AEs... :cool: http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a..._photos/32.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a..._photos/30.jpg |

IMO - I like the stock look too. Just look very clean and modern and classy, all at the same time. |
Yep, stock looks best long term IMO;)

Looking good, Bruce!!!
Now, time for some more car pron! Turismo installed. http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/013-2.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/014-1.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/015-2.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/016-3.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/017-2.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/018-2.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/019-2.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/021-1.jpg http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...otos/023-2.jpg Sorry about the dirty car. I've been busy... :) |
My kit arrived on just the other day. The lights are installed in the housings. Next step is figuring out the wiring, mounting the Ballasts, checking the aim and then sealing them back up.

For nice and clean install of the ballast, you'll want a 1" holesaw and some 1" hole plugs from the hardware store. ;) 1" is the perfect size to allow all the connectors to pass through the rear cover in case you need to replace the ballast down the road. |
Re sealing the lights
Im curious , if you use RTV they would be sealed forever.....or can you get them back apart ??
|
No RTV for me. Permatex black silicone adhesive sealant.
It's pretty close to OEM. Actually, I use a combination of silicones, now. I use the Permatex at three key points around the headlight seal for it's superior adhesion, and a lighter grade silicone throughout the rest to ease future opening of the headlight. http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/a...42BBBB6745.jpg |
Install completed. The specs are a Vivo light with a silver finish, white led, the interior of the light was left stock.

The lights are awesome. Just returned from driving the car for the first time after the installation. The light beam is focused perfectly. When stopped or driving behind a car they do not flood the interior of the car in front with light. Yet the light flows along the surface of the road lighting up the travel path. Passing along a bridge or guardrails the light pattern stops just along the top edge. Yet, when hitting the high beams the underpass of a bridge is lit. The difference in lighting performance is difference is between factory and these is stunning.

Did you check them with the 25 ft method? I found mine had to be adjusted up quite a bit. The cutoff was way too close to the car.

Yea they are a tad better than the halogens. Not sure about you but I find this cutoff line thing quite addictive on mine. Roads are pretty bumpy here and you get to see that cutoff line going up/down perfectly on dark roads. Feels just like a scanner! Not to mention the other addiction I have flicking the low/high beams... emergency vehicle stuff. Nasty flash lol My other car also has projectors but they are not bi-xenon and are the frosted lens type. Nothing to compared with those Porsche lights at all :( Norm is right, those will adjust @ 25' (or as-per owner's manual). He kindly uploaded the visuals RE adjusting the beam height for those retrofitting with those lights. Thanks to him btw. See: http://986forum.com/forums/420606-post693.html |

They could be unplugged in the rear if it became a problem. |
