ScottHmk4 - 1.2 Cupra replica (Now Sold)

[uzi_cupra]

that make any more sense lol

normal or HID's, does not matter which. ok ill give examples.
if you want to adjust your light level from inside the car (change it between I and III) using the roller thing under your light switch then with the twin lamps it aint possible because the wiring loom for that part is slightly different. so what you need to do is adjust the hight that you want your bulbs to sit at manually from the headlight itself (reflection off a wall is prob best way) once you have the hight adjusted your done!
now one other problem...which is not too bad...
say you have your lights on normal...driving down the road and your giving someone way out a junctionor somthing, so you flash them, well what will happen is when you flash your high beam (flash) will turn on and your low beam (normal) will turn off so it will switch between them quickly.
HOWEVER if you are driving and need to see more of road ahead of you and you keep your high beam (flash) on by pushing the stock at the side of the steering wheel forward, the high beam (flash) and low beam (normal) will both be on.

i get the whole inside adjuster, as for the other thing mines is like that just now anyways with the hid i got in, if i switch to full beam just now it knocks off dipped beam and goes to a manky yellow full beam, i dont use full beams with xenons anyways, and as for flashing people thats not a problem i can just flick my headlight switch which i also do just now anyways, surely there is a solution to these problems thought, there will be some sort of re-wiring needed to fix, surely someone one hre has done it and got everything working.

i did try everything i could to fix these 2 problems, but when i couldnt do anything i took one step back...looked at the lights and though "f**k it, they look amazing, and work...light up the road for me" thats enough lol

these will be up for sale shortly, not just yet but if interested PM me, 8000K H4 xenons cost me £120 so going to be looking for £65-£70 ono , headlights around £70 (pair), i will be officially putting these in the for sale section and ebay once i get them out the car and new lamps fitted, just a feeler post really.

[ScottHmk4]

yeh i was thinking that myself

 

[ScottHmk4]

too much?

 

[kidinspace]

too much?

Yes, just do the bit at the bottom leaving the angled parts red gives it a better look.

[LNK17C]

I agree with the above. Would still look brilliant, though.

 

[ScottHmk4]

vinyl has just arrived for the bottom bit, unsure on the colour but al go give it a bash just now, pics added soon.

ok so didnt go to plan, colour was way off but i tried it anyways, soo hard to vinyl wrap as it turns out, because it bends it just creases, so vinyl is binned, only other option is too quote painting in which im in process of doing. u guys think its worth gettin done?

[ScottHmk4]

will see how much im quoted, not paying over the odds. only thing im concerned about is when i come to sell the car or the bumper, its like not as it should be lol, and i dont usually care but i am about tht for some reason lol, al c how much im quoted first,

 

[kidinspace]

yyou could do it yourself when you have the bumper off doing the lights.
Can't imagine it would cost that much for someone to do TBH.

[Aimez]

Only small subtle bit of the car why bother paying someone to do it do it yourself!

 

[cupra.al]

dont think about resale do what you want to do at the end of the day its your car/bumper have look the way you want it to and worry about resale when and if you do it.

 

[ScottHmk4]

yeah thats my usual attitude, maybe im just in doubt incase it ends up not looking good and then i need to spend more money fixing it back
