Adrian@TORQEN Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Any update on my kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cs2000 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 There was a silver Zed following me on the motorway the other week with these and I thought they looked fantastic. Really interested, but I'm a total modification newbie, how easy are these to fit? Plus I include a guide on how to do this. Isnt the greatest but it helps. @Marty-350 thanks, ive added you on.

cs2000 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 (edited) Hey octet, sorry for the wait. Im ordering the rest of the parts next Thursday, has been various issues mostly related to legal issues at work taking all my time but also funding issues . Let me see what I can do, give me 10 mins. EDIT: im going to do another 4 orders in "Batch 2" yours are in there Octet, sorry about having to wait. Ive just tried to order the parts but sadly it wont let me, weird but Ive messaged the seller. Hopefully he still sells these! Edited May 22, 2013 by cs2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty-350 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 FYI mine are pre facelift . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cs2000 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 Yep, that's all I do, hence the DE in the title The HR cars (Facelift) use a different shape reflector that I cant get for a good price sadly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cs2000 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) Bad news guys, the current supplier I have been using has stopped selling black ones, yep, the one most of you guys want! Im trying to source more and have found somewhere but they are more expensive than the old supplier. ------------ EDIT, screw it, there's been enough delays so ive just bought the black ones at a price increase of about 30%. All parts for EVERYONE currently on the list are now on order, should arrive early-mid next week! Any future orders for black ones, the price has gone up by £5 seeing as the cost has also gone up. I have only increased it by £5, despite the actual increase being about £12. obviously anyone who's order is already in (everyone on the list of this date) will get it at the old price of £55 + £3 postage First post has been updated with the new price so ignore this if you're on the list already Edited May 23, 2013 by cs2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cs2000 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Thanks guys, just didn't want to keep people waiting, especially people who are very early on the list such as poor octet! lol The thing that annoys me is that I can tell from photos of the item that they're EXACTLY what I was buying before, the numbers on the back are identical, yet im paying 30% more! lol never mind, them's the dice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cs2000 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) Poor you in 1 respect, yes you did JUST miss out on the first batch, however, lucky you, as you know, I ordered your set of reflectors earlier in the week (or was it last week, so this evening... After some (lots) of measuring and drilling... and after a while of work inserting and pressing home the LED's... So, this needs a couple of days to fully cure, but tomorrow or Saturday il complete the wiring, test them, box them up and post them on Tuesday as Monday is a bank holiday Edited May 23, 2013 by cs2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluke Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 How hard are these to fit? Does the bumper have to come off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartynB85 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) How hard are these to fit? Does the bumper have to come off? Sure does, piece of p**s tho mate. Edited May 29, 2013 by MartynB85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cs2000 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 Yep. I dare say you could do it by just moving the wheel arch liners, but youd probably have no skin left on your hands afterwards! I include a guide for removal and fitting and tbh its really not that hard, total of about 12 bolts and a few plastic clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartynB85 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 12 bolts on the bottom of the bumper, 3 either end behind the headlights/in the arch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
