      So is that a WS6 ? Don't they all come with headlights that we'll flip up ? Screaming the 1980 called and it's time ! Dated as it gets . Yes I own and drive a WS6 as well .

      Go look up the Chris 1313 pro stock. It's not a bolting application though. You will have to cut your radiator support and a few other things to make it work.

    How does the high beam work? are you using a different light/bulb?

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Рік тому +2

      Same light flipped upside down. Not really a high beam but since it's on at the same time as a headlight, it still is doubling your output and shining upwards. I don't use it because the lights themselves are bright enough, especially with my fog lights on. But I built it for others that do want it.

  • @DontSmokeCrack11
    @DontSmokeCrack11 Рік тому

    Something else to consider - If you live in a state that does safety inspections this likely won't fly. The lights have to be marked 'DOT' on the lens to be legal and have both low and high beams. Any tech or mechanic worth their weight in salt will catch it and fail the vehicle. You may have to find a safety inspector who will look past the unauthorized alteration, but that usually comes with a price.

    Where did you get the marker lights from???? The ones that normally would be orange on the front. Also it looks like you got LEDs for the lights under the rear view mirror >.>. Where in the world did you get those? i can't find out what bulb fits in there.

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Рік тому

      I modified the stock housing. Cut off the lens, put LED ribbon around the perimeter, made a new lens from acrylic.
      The map lights on the inside are 212-2 (LEDs = 44mm rigid loop festoon)
      I looked up f-body lamp list.

    I know I’m gonna catch a lotta flack for this, esp since I own a car with pop up headlights, but I always thought the sleepy eye mod was gay because it ruins the aerodynamics. Visually it looks cool, but to me, performance always takes precedence over appearance.

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Рік тому +1

      How you figure? Is the headlights only popping up a third of the way and are now level the ground versus popping up all the way and are now like a brick wall. I would assume that the sleepy eye is more a dynamic. I actually would race with my headlights down if I was in a race at night. Using fog lights only. Now I don't have to worry about it as much because they're not 10 inches in the air acting as an air dam.

    • @shaunwalsh85
      @shaunwalsh85 Рік тому

      @@jrandsr5158 okay, vs all the way up? Yes, you’d be correct. but I’m used to seeing the mod mostly on old 240SX’s from the drift crowd, and the light stays in the sleepy eye position even when the lights are not on. which would be less aerodynamic than fully closed, which is what I meant. if your sleepy eye mod fully closes when not lit? Then that’s cooler. but another drawback to the sleepy eye (again, from the 240 crowd) is that the road is not lit up as well as a regular fully up light.

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Рік тому

      No my headlights are fully functional like stock. Lights turn on when the headlight pops up. One click down and the lights turn off but the headlight stays up. All the way off and the headlight drops with lights off. I don't drive around in the daytime with the lights up 😂... Unless I'm entering a car meet and that's just to show the mod. I can't leave them up when the car is off because all of the parking lights will still be on.
