M35 Blacked Out Headlights

[spoolin12]

Hey everyone.

Picked up my M35 last week and have been getting things slowly done. Got the TV converted to English - Thanks Andy, alarm installed, new silver number plates (wank) and now blacked out headlights.

In the process I destroyed my passenger side headlight.... (anyone got a spare I can buy?) but its in the car and doesn't look too bad.

If someone can help me out with a replacement headlight I will post up a step by step tutorial with pictures.

Here is a photo I just took:

Makes the front end look so much tougher.

Yep, looks waaaaaaaaaaaay better. Well done.

You might want to try Yahoo Auctions via Import Monster to find that headlight (although you might luck out on eBay).

Out of curiosity, what parker globe is in there? It looks like a very nice white!

would like to see a pic of the enitire front when it's done and look forward to read the tut. great stuff

you need to track down where that smashed white M35 went too.....try contacting Angus Smart(aka Andrew)...pretty sure he know where it went to.

Hope this help's as I am keen as to do this.

+1 on wanting instructions on getting this done!

nice work! looks good on the silver aero models best

Oh yeah, forgot to ask, does it adversely affect the light spread at all?

Gave Chris a quick hand at doing this today, and its a tricky one! end results are awesome!

He has both in, and its looks insane, even if his passenger side is a bit buggered, you cant tell from the outside!

It really makes it look loads tougher.

In regards to light spread, we couldnt see any difference to the naked eye, could you tell driving the car home at night chris?

And how good are the pics! haha cant get a quick iphone shot from a photographer i guess

I am not too sure to be honest, it was a blue bulb. The passenger bulb is blown though, so I will replace both.

I will post a quick shot tomorrow.

I gave Just Jap a call and they seem to be stripping an M35. Not too sure if its the same one.

Not that I can tell. Drove home tonight and couldn't see any difference.

Cheers.

Lights look great. Wheres the DIY with pics? I have wanted to do this for a while but I was too scared to stuff the housing.

Ahhh...everyone wants their car to look like a S1 C34....

Seriously though: looks great! Try www.halfcuts.com.au - I know they had a M35 or 2 floating around a couple of months ago...

I know I keep plugging these guys, but they're decently priced, and willing to keep bringing in plenty of Stagea goodies as long as they see a demand for it. Sorry if I sound like a constant advertisement, but it's for the greater good!!
