I have an 'angel eyes' kit, bought from the States that you can have for 35 quid - they are Dave Jarmans' now !

I was just going light shopping on ebay today and was thinking of buying those. That pic just convinced me Thanks!

Hi,
How big are the front headlamps on the 280zx?...This company does a complete headlamp replacement with the angel eyes effect built in!...they're intended for Minis or any car with a 7" diameter lamp.

7"" on the 280, 260 , 240 ! What loading do they require - are relays required to avoid meltdown ?
Nice aren't they !

This pic looks pretty dangerous, someone might drive straight through the middle.

dont the us drive on the right? would the headlights not dip to the right so failing an MOT.

Very nice Jez,

I would probably use them In the spot/foglight mounting
position on my 2+2 & keep the original'z otherwize My car would only
be of any use as a 'display' item at the N.E.C!
Definately not much cop for knightridinnn DJZ 60.

 

[SeanDezart]

Good point Grolls but doesn't worry me ! I think I'll take a set and try 'em out !

 

[Tony 260Z]

I've had a set for aaaages, I just haven't got around to going through the headache of fitting 'em!

 

[Tony 260Z]

Better do it before "bling" Skiddell does...

 

[SeanDezart]

'They' say it's easy !

Hi,
They reckon that....."The dipped beam dips straight down so it can be fitted to LHD & RHD cars."?
Therefore you would need to keep your regular lights to swap for use at mot time!

I thought that they referred to the mainbeams dipping straight down ?

so what your saying is jez, they look fantastic but they are as much use at night as a limp todger at an orgy!

 

[JEZ 280ZX]

Hi,
I guess they're not really intended for serious night driving, although they claim to be brighter than old, original headlamps.
How many Zed owners drive their cars at night anyway?

This may be a silly question but why would you want a pair of those on a Z ? May be ok for Chavs on their Novas and Fiestas but on a Z, I dont think so. I expect you will be getting those equally dozy rotating wheel trims next. Disgusted of Kingswood.

 

[Tony 260Z]

I dunno, I "quite" like 'em but have held back due to (a) aggro of changing 'em over and (b) not being 100% convinced. So, they've been sitting in my garage for a while. Hmmmm....

Spinners look OK when they're 24+ inches across and slapped on an Escalade or something, but the other day I saw a girl with them as wheeltrims on a fiesta (I think). Poor things were only tiny and you could clearly see the steel wheel underneath. Not quite so hot...
