hey guys,

I should have my set sanded this w/e. haven't had much time this last week with changing jobs n all, and i've been crook which doesn't help matters any.

Let me know which type you guys would prefer...if you want ones that just stick on, i can put them together pretty quickly, and it will only use half as much fibreglass, so i can sell them cheaper ;) If anyone wants the stick on type, i should be able to put a set together this weekend (unless I keel over from being sick ;) ).

Once i have my bolt on set trimmed to fit, i'll see how they go with the bonnet...but i can't see there being any issues. They will bolt on at the back, and I'll probably be sticking them at the front so thieving little s**ts can't get their fingers up underneath to rip them off.

**PM** me with what you guys are expecting to pay, and i'll try and work my price around that :) I'll also work out how much i'll need to charge to cover my costs ;)

I trial fitted the eyelids to the car last night after trimming them, I need to shave a little off the face of the pass side one to even things up.

They fit and the bonnet closes normally. The little black rubber things on the bonnet were originally hitting the eyelids but I trimmed it (edit: by "it" i mean the eyelids, not the black things) back and now fits with no issues :P

Also tried to "steal" them with the bonnet closed and they weren't going anywhere :D

All that's left to do is:

*sand the pass side eyelid

*make brackets to fit

*paint

Once i have this set completely finished I'll put a post in the F/S section :D

To give me an idea of demand, please PM me or post here and let me know what you guys want:

*stick-on (will just cover the top & face of the headlight), or

*bolt in (covers face and entire top of headlight)

:P

Man, i'm interested too if you're going to start making more lol. Been after eyelids since i bought my 32, makes it look so much "Tuffer"!

A bit off the topic, but how do you's get that little pic of your cars in ur info thing? I've taken pics of my car with my fone, but cant work out how to put it up there!?

Let me know how you go with the eyelids i'm VERY keen.

Michael is thinking of gettin' a GTR so it isn't goint be cheap ;)

:rofl:

will trade for GTR Parts ;) hahaha if everyone donates something (a caliper, a radiator, an engine, etc ) I should be able to build a GTR by 2010 :wizard:

but seriously, I'm going to make 2 or 3 types.

1- Stick-on ones for maybe 50-60ish (to be confirmed) - these will just cover the face, an dif someone was so inclined may be able to be ripped off :(

2 - Stick on that are a bit bigger and will be hard to steal because of the way it is moulded around the headlight,

3 - And the 3rd type which will bolt at the back, and can be stuck at the front (so they don't rattle around and are a bit more secure :) This is the type i have made and basically ready to be painted.

As per one of my previous posts, i tried to "steal" the 3rd type from my car with the bonnet closed and it was impossible. Also I couldn't get enough leverage to break or snap them off because they are moulded so closely to the headlight :D

If no-one wants the cheapies then please let me know and i'll focus my efforts on what you all want :) Even better if you could email me which type you'd prefer @ Midnite_Garage at hotmail dot com it will be easier for me to keep track of what people want. I'll let you know set prices for type 2 and 3 sometime next week when i have pics.

:cheers:

Michael

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
