rhys1344 Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 I was wondering if anyone has put LED "side lights / running lights" in the bit where the vertical reflectors are on the front corner of the bumper? and how much of a job it would be to actually do it, I think it could look quite alright, a bit like the shitroen DS3 style Quote
schift Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 It's possible, but there aren't very many options for the prefacelifted models as the reflectors do not come apart easily. One option is this, although I'm sure you could do it cheaper by making it yourself. I personally think they look @*!#. http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/350z04d/50-3071 Quote
Zugara Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Ever seen them on a zed I personally think they look @*!#. Quote
spursmaddave Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Ever seen them on a zed I personally think they look @*!#. not the biggest fan but your and Jims looked good Quote
jumping350 Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 ive got them they look ok hardly noticable except i didnt wire them up didnt want to look like a U.F.O landing! mine are carbon fibre with very dark led covers they look ok like that i think but after xmas il unveil my other little touces which should compliment it Quote
rhys1344 Posted December 18, 2011 Author Posted December 18, 2011 any pics of these installed on a Zed? preferably white LED lol it just seems to me that a "reflector" is a bit pointless, i mean its the first thing that comes off a bike when you buy one.. so why should they be on a sports car, just seem like they should be lights... but aren't Quote
Boycey Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Check out this thread. viewtopic.php?f=38&t=41016&hilit=Boycey&start=15 I put them on my zed and a few others have done the same. They looked pretty good but came out a little too blue for my liking but maybe that we just the led strip quality Quote
schift Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Ever seen them on a zed I personally think they look @*!#. I haven't, but I can't imagine they look much different in person. I don't like the way that you can see the individual LEDs. It looks cheap. CCFL tubes or LED set ups on the facelift Zeds look awesome though! CCFL: LED: Quote
rhys1344 Posted December 18, 2011 Author Posted December 18, 2011 now they're cool! How would you go about wiring them into the sidelights though? I'm not to hot with auto-electrics Quote
Andy1981 Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Where would I buy some of the ccfl tubes? and how much are they? Are they easy to wire up to side lights? Quote

Dicky Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I'd like to convert my reflectors to DRL but dont like to see individual led's, I also find they look a bit naff (hate the xmas tree effect on audies and othe recent models. Anyone used cold cathode fluorescent tubes before? Can you get 12v versions and do they strike up instantly unlike a normal fluorescent tube? models. Quote
ashyk36 Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Would they not break if you were on a motorway and a stone hit them? Where do you get these from anyways? Quote
kriss Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Really liek them - somehow dont look Chavvy at all When from buddy? Quote
