JDM quad light, lights?

[paulie]

hey guys.
my jdm quads arrived today without the actual lights..
does anybody know which lights work in these..?
i hear that datto 1600 lamps work? can someone please clarify..
cheers

[ke70dave]

from what i know they are standard hella lights. you can buy them from supercheap. from memory they are about 15$ for sealed beams, or 26$? for ones that take H4 globes

get the H4 ones for all 4, and get philips blue vision for all 4, wire them up so they both come on with low beam and high beam (youll need a few relays) then you have an artificial sun attached to your car:)

expensive exercise though...

[paulie]

^cheers mate.. ill just get the sealed beams for the time being, then ill upgrade to the h4..

its money well spent, the more you can see, the quicker u can drive!

What ke70dave said ^^
You could also grab some from the wreckers, early bmw can be used (been meaning to get some for my 1600).
A good option for the high beams are 150watt sealed beams, often refered to as 'aircraft landing lights', will make your ke70 have its own personal sun

Paulie hook a brother up with part numbers yo

my inside ones (closest to grill) are hi beam only (sealed beam) whereas the outside lights are both, i would like to have all four lights happening on normal headlight mode

[paulie]

yeah no worries gilly.. im gonna try a mates set of datto 1600 lights forst. ill let u know how i go with the numbers..
i feel like an absolute [unt hacking the lights up to fit around the cooler.. :blink:

[jason4558]

maybe you should move the cooler

[stouty]

How did you get the JDM quads? Keen on a set

[Gilly]

i feel like an absolute [unt hacking the lights up to fit around the cooler.. :blink:[/b]

yeah i was in that position as well, i could either cut JDM lights, switch back to early KE front with slight trim of the lights

OR

Make a new cooler pipe for the passenger side which let me keep the cooler in a better spot, keep the lights etc

as long as they still fit and look nice who cares :P

[paulie]

^ lol. the lights have been fitted.. took some loose cannon work with the angle grinder but they are in.. could not be arsed moving the cooler so i had to make do with the currrent setup.. came out alright.. its sick how everything bolts and lines straight up bar the beaver panel...

[Gilly]

:lol: i know what you mean i went to fit mine armed with tape measures, drill bits, holwsaws, jigsaw, grinder etc, only to find out they bolted straight in taking no longer than 10 minutes :P

[ke70dave]

this is where its at guys, if i had a spare 200$....

I bought all new Hella lights through work for Teddy's KE70. About $110 each plus $20 shipping from melbourne.. ( Hella 6505 and 5612/100 ) Had to modify a piece of the inner headlight mount to get the inners to fit..

Sorry to dig up an old thread but can someone confirm this..

[sr_rolla]

don't know for sure about supercheap but they are standard, old school 5 3/4" sealed of H4 headlight globes, i know that hella make them, narva make them and they are avilable cheaply on ebay. Most auto spares parts stock them, the only thing that you have to be sure of when buying online is that they are the glass ones and not the plastic ones.

Exactly what i was after, Cheers man

[Arch]

20 bucks is cheap for a H4 setup...

in sealed beams they would cost around $10-$15 ea, i could price some up for you if you sent me a pm with dimensions and wattage.

[Waz]

Last time i tried getting new hella h1 beams they were something ridiculas like 70 each trade. think i payed 15 or so each from the wrecker for the exact saem hellas from the early bmw's.

then re-do all wiring and relays and run 100watt globes in all of them. mmmm light
