I haven't done the project yet, but I'm thinking about this attached Cat's-Eye 3-in-1 Lighting System as the main component. 5 3/4" W x 2" H x 3 3/4 D means it would only be a 2" to 2 1/2" frog eye, headlight assembly opening.
So my Pantera's front lights would only open to the lowest possible level, 2", and they'd be parallel to the pavement, i.e. horizontal, or flat when wide open, headlights ON. Least air drag, greatest styling element: low profile, IMHO, of course. I think it would be much better if you could put a kit together like this to get my business and be different from Kirk Evan's design. That is if you're contemplating new products to offer us, and I'd greatly appreciate anything which reduces my skill requirement in the "handy with tools category." As I was designing and measuring in my head, it seems like a guy could reinstall the original headlights and the chrome bezel ring would cover the cut-out requirement on the existing bezel mounting surface. There would be no need for re-painting the top of the headlamps, but a nice new rectangular custom bezel would add value, something else I haven't figured out yet. Then there's the prototype and getting legal headlamp light bulbs as other issues that need sorting out. JCW.com p/n we494977y, 1 pair $99.99, that's if you just bought one pair, then you'd have to buy the correct light bulbs, the right custom bezel, and wiring connectors and instructions for guys like me. I'd be a buyer at $350.00 or whatever ... if it was gonna be easy and slick looking, and PI Motorsports could make some profits off me, no problemo. Please!
Anyway, here's the link-up:
