Headlight Projectors not protectors!

Wai_Mak · Post by **Wai_Mak** » Sun Jan 09, 2005 1:12 am

I know this topic has been discussed before but I am still trying to get hold of a set of Projected Headlights

I do not want to go down the route of making my own custom work like JOY did and he did a FANTASTIC JOB.

I have phone bigboystoyz and they said they are trying to order them from FK but not 100% sure when.

autostylin.co.uk had them but they have disappeared.

I am really trying hard to track down a pair of projected headlights.

Can anyone help??

Thank you

Basically they're not out. Gwentvw told me end of december, i've e-mailed them recently but had no response so it may be worth calling them.

To be honest Bigboystoys hasn't got that good a reputation any more, they don't seem to have a clue about their orders so i wouldn't worry. I ordered mine back in march from them and they said a couple of weeks and if there are any problems we'll call you. They don't call and for months they didn't have a clue!

Just an update for any one who's interested. Just been told that the launch of the lights are being put back yet again till April!!

I wonder if i'll still have my car that long.

This is what we're talking about. Last I heard from awesome-gti is that they're not being released till April now.

Not that i care because i don't want them anymore.

I got mine last week from Big Boys Toys.

I had them on back order from last September and got fobbed off every time I chased them (Like everybody else) so decided I would emaile FK themselves and got this reply.

So when I rang Bigboystoys straight away and spoke to a Girl (Didnt catch her name) and she said that she would send them next day delivery.

Anyway they look great.

Its just that I thought they would be basically plug in and go but you have to wire the lights through these relays and to the battery?

Was just after a few pointers.

f**k me you got something from Bigboystoys? That's a rarity. Any how i cancelled my order with them ages ago.

Get some picks up and a few ppl might be interested in a DIY if your willing to write one?
