unfortunately 07's do not have those vents, as ours are not inserts and are fully painted. :-\

 

Mine is an 07, it's an LT3 though, donno if that makes any difference VS the LS's and such.

 

and hey did you get your strips from oznium? length? and those were clear yes?

 

Yep, i got them from oznium, they are the 9.5 inch in length and they are the ones listed as "white"

 

thank you kindly sir.

tonight after work i'll be doing some measurements. I'm curious as to how far it's gonna wrap around if i use 9.5's and 4.7's for the oranges. i'll find out tonight lol.

even my friends that didn't like what you did at first are feelin it now. I think the combo of what you did, with what i wanna do, and with adding led's to the inner tails, our ls's are gonna catch all kinds of looks, and they won't be able to say ricer cause it all looks goooood and clean! LOL

hey captain, can u take some side angle shots for my tonight? like facing your car, with your right foot parallel to the front of the wheel-well, step like 10 steps away from the side of the car. I'm needing to know because I noticed something and I need verification of what im thinkin.

 

Make sure you post pictures, that sounds pretty neat.

Yea, from the side? So like if i was walking to get in the car? I can do that.

 

greatly appreciated. i'm trying to see how much of this white will be seen from that angle. i wanna make sure the angle is enough cops won't **** with it. lol

 

Really? I have an 07 and mine has the inserts. To the OP, I think i'm gonna do this on my car too, as long as you don't mind me stealing the idea. I think I'm gonna do the extra turn signal strip, 6000k hids, switchback led turn signals, all at the same time.

 

i still get a kick out of people saying "SEVERE FAIL HID'S IN REFLECTORS!" thats such a joke its rediculous.

go ask every motorist that drives past me at night if they even noticed. people have no idea wtf there talking about.

 

considering that every night i get brighted a few times for having just silverstar ultra's(which they soon regret doing when i bright them back), i find it hard to believe that nobody has been annoyed by your HID's in stock housings. that is, unless you got crap light output.

 

aiming your lights. you're doing it wrong.. i have silverstar ultras and get flashed rarely the only time i do is when me and someone else are cresting a hill at the same time so it puts my headlights right at the eyes

 

 

Side view, as you can see the strips don't put off any light on the side, and the only police interaction i've gotten because of them was a thumbs up.




Light output from about 10 feet.



Oh, and for anyone who wants to use this idea go for it, if you can improve upon it let me know. I'm just super stoked that some people like my little cobalt enough to use some of my ideas.

 

I'm pretty sure I trust the stock aiming of my lights.....my alignment checks fine.
