i dont think its legal to have the light source a different color coming out of the headlight... looks light the light will come ouit the same color as the film.. that would restrict light in night driving conditions.

I would say, the cops would state something like that..

There was a guy on here looking to sell a similar film which I think he was from WA and did advertise the stuff on eBay. Basically the stuff he was selling he said didn't effect light output or light colour.

[edit]

I am pretty confident this is the product that guy was selling

[edit 2]

The Crystalite website and if you go through the FAQ it states that it doesn't change light colour or light output.

I respectfully disagree sir.

I respectfully believe you have just proven Hamishs' point :nyaanyaa:

that is niiiiyyyce!!!....

if a cop was to getting anyone from low output of light from the headlights (due to the film) it would be at night when they notice that you cant light up the road correctly.. get some hids or very strong bulbs...

\Crystalite looks good. im might do this now :)

I wouldn't mind the black for my head lights and tail lights just to smoke them out without effecting the light output like those people with the old commodores who buy the tint spray and put 2 million coats on so you can just see a little light where the bulb is its brightest.

who cares if they are legal... they are ghey

This...

So films that change the colour of the headlight don't affect the light output? Well f**k physics

And this...

If you had a show car with Ghost Flames down the side, then it might look good, just to be different, but on the road it would look pretty "ghey"

    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
    • ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
