Agreed, where did you get these from and are they vinyl or plastic/ABS?

Yup eazyx978 beat me to it thats exactly it!

In my honda the japanese made eyelid cost about 300$ and up
Its refreshing that this poland made item is only 20$!

ShocknAwe · 02-11-2016, 10:59 PM

Eyelids look great! Reminds me, I need to polish my headlights and reinstall my CSRs!

Nice! Can you send me some better pictures of the fitment? I'm going to re-finish my headlights and want to put these on the inside of the lights if possible.

Car looks great man, can't wait for more updates!

Ask and you shall receive

fitment is pretty spot on!
I dont think you can install inside the headlight it was made to fit on the outside of the headlight like a cover

Yeah man, check the build thread link in my signature line.

jackp0t · 02-18-2016, 02:44 PM

In the winter i have only been collecting parts and test fitting the cold weather owned me. haha

But finally i have mod that i can do even in the cold. Screw you winter!

jackp0t · 02-18-2016, 08:03 PM

Ordered everything needed to finish the car and then some future maintenance jobs (to qualify for the free shipping @ ecstuning im cheap that way

)

jackp0t · 02-18-2016, 11:12 PM

Had to start with the cluster mod A.S.A.P. I was itching to finally work on the car after winter owned me and pussied out on working on it

This one i can do inside the house.lol

Opened it up
Its pretty straight forward thanks to the DIY of MuNkY6913 thanks bud!

I never thought i would use a fork as a tool

I couldnt find the red needles so i just did the red marker mod

This one was pretty nerve wracking removing the orange led and replacing it with the white leds via solder

The first 2 was a struggle but once i got the hang of it it was smooth sailing

Tweezer is your best friend in this mod.lol

Had to go straight to the car to test out the leds to see if i did it right or fried the circuit board

AND

I felt like i leveled up in this electrical thanggg. haha

The most troublesome part of the mod is at the end (of course) when you put the needles back.
My suggestions are
*1st is to hook it up in the car with out the plastic cover let it calibrate and THEN install the needles
*2nd dont push the needle all the way IN until your absolutely sure its in the proper position because if not your gonna have to use the fork to pull it out from the cluster

All done!
