IM NOT WORTHY

 

[MattInNC]

a good trick for a clearer headlight is to remove the orange reflector in the side lights, and then replace the yellow'ie lamps for silver

Neil,
Is there any tricks to getting the refelctor out or is it pretty straight forward?

 

[Neil - UK]

no tricks, its a simple task

OK, plan 2,

Have any of you guys noticed the reverse light on the new BMW Minis? It looks very similar to the Viper clear side markers we are after! I'm not sure its the exact size, but just down the road from me is a Mini Dealership

On behalf of the Viper community I shall investigate this matter

So, if side marker lights off a Mini become the fashion, will we be seeing more white hood vents too?

 

[Fatboy 18]

I was thinking Silver Hood Vents to match my Fast Silver stripes

I bought mine and installed them about a month ago what do you need to know? They fit well look good and take about 14 days to get to you. Jason shipped mine out immediately and customs had them for 3 or so days.

Dam there no good either The front of the lens is the same size but it is not deep enough, (on the mini the lens is flush with the rear fender) and as for the holder, its a huge thing

Back to the drawing board

Kenmo THANK YOU ! Just put the order in today as well. These are not as nice as the diamond cut ones i had on my GEN 1 3 years a ago, but they are 100 times better than whats on there now! YOu guys just got the lens covers right? Use the old housing?

Glad I could help! I just ordered the covers. The member that posted up about klearz in the other thread said they were easy to swap out. Just some patience, a flat head screw driver, and voila!!

COOL! Thanks again!

 

[dave6666]

I bought a set too from Klearz - still setting on the to do pile - and also bought a pair of new OEM housings off of ebay for $10 each. I'm going to rattle-can them chrome for maximum coolness. Or you can use the housing as-is.

 

[All Blue ACR]

COOL! Thanks again!

So, did you order clear, clear silver, smoked?

Just went with the clear...Nothing fancy, just looking for that "clean" look. Hey is Bat still selling the overlays for the rear tails to make them clear/red?

 

[darkostoj]

anymore? I'd like to get a set

You and I are sharing the same brain, James. I actually emailed him to see if he was still making these. If you go to his website it just brings up pictures of his products....there's no where to actually order them. I found his email address in another forum....still haven't heard back from him though.

Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place??

I'll post up if he emails me back.

Is this where you are trying?

I think the previous poster meant he is trying to get ahold of bat and this overlays. I sent him a PM sometime back and got no response.

 

[kenmo]

Got a reply back from bat....he's still around and making these. Sounds like he has a family now and trying to slow down a bit.

Regardless, here's his email address. He will reply with instructions:

I was just in touch with Andy (Bat) this week and he does have the overlays for the sidemarkers @ $15 a set. The email above is the best way to get in touch with him.

KLEARZ does have the clear lens in stock @$45 + $15 shipping. Just ordered some from Jason this morning.

I was pretty sure there wasn't any HP gain but you make a good point about the weight savings. I'm gonna have to get me some. Do they make them in carbon fiber?

It may be a year old, but finding clear lenses is still a challenge.

I've been looking off and on for a year and finally decided to just spend the couple of extra dollars and order them from Klearz.

Watch out on the comments about a year old thread or I'll bring the Vipair thread back to life!
