lol

Gav our Hi beams are seperate from our low beams (in other words theres 2 seperate globes). So to have a high beam HID you would need to units.

I just have HID's on my low beam. and just have standard globes for hi.

ok guys confirmed with my friend march 7th is good!.


also if anyone is need of a service or engine work please let me know asap so i can let him know.

Gav: the difference is that fto's use hb4 globes for low beam so you need atleast a hb4 HID kit for your low beams and then another kit to suit your high beams (if you want them xenon). So if you want hi & low beams you need 2 kits.

only H4 globed vehicles have the option of a single hi & low kit.

Cass: angel eyes wouldnt be feasible in doing at the diy day as there is no oven (well there is but its a big 4 car painting oven which i dont think we are allowed to use) lol. Otherwise if someone who could do them i would like to do mine too.

Now in regards to tinting tail lights i have been tossing up whether to do mine or not so im down if you are and if someone could show me how its done.

and im not sure what the air box thingy is lol

nope its not. Its some plastic lining that usually wears off over time that causes the damn window to rattle.

the service will be $180
includes oil, filter and sump plug washer

Will require a $30 deposit though by thursday night.

Also you don't need to replace the window guide ....Just squeeze the old one closd .only need to close the gap by 1mm and it will stop the window from rattling
