Title: Black headlights
Post by: DubAndDubber on 16 February 2013, 19:18
I seen some headlights the other day on here or some other forum :lipsrsealed:. Can't find them now!

They were black, no angel eyes. With projectors, the ring around the projector was chrome. But I'm sure I've seen it black. Any pictures would be great! Thanks

Ah! I saw them on a car so it's a little hard to tell. I think it's those bu but the chrome ring was satin black.

I ordered 'black' ones, but in the picture they looked more like anni lights than they did in reality. I liked them though, so it didn't really matter :smiley:

I had some on my Wagon they had no Halo rings think they were FK ones.I ended up selling them as they use to steam up  :sad:

As above Fk sell them, they were on sale (50% off) for something like £105 plus delivery. But I don't know if they still are. I've got a set which should be delivered in the next few days hopefully. They looked pretty good.

They also do R32 style chrome ones but I prefered the anni look.

Can I fit headlights without the foglights, even though my car has them?
Title: Re: Black headlights
Post by: brewey on 17 February 2013, 08:49
The fk ones have fogs built in.

I imagine that the plugs would be the same for both but the headlight without fogs would just not har the fo connection. Im sure that someone will be able to confirm though.

There's anni style lights for 70. But they're without fogs.

Be careful when ordering those, that's the same picture that was used for the set that I bought. As I said earlier in the thread that's what I thought I ordered it turns out they don't actually look like that.

Yeah I read your thread, (page 39). But yours were the projector type. They're only £70 so I might just go for it and see what they turn up like! But I just need to know if non fogs will fit  :undecided:

Non fogs should fit as the connector plug will be the same, it just won't have the pins for the fog light loom inside the headlight.

I made a set of these for about a tenner. I took the glass lens off and sprayed the chrome rings satin black. Pain in the ass to do but I liked the end result!

That's also where I bought mine from, excellent service! One of the clips had broken inside mine when they were delivered, I rang them and a new set were delivered the next day and the old set collected.
