aiming tyc headlight??? i cant find how to do it please help quick before it rains :( all it has is bolts in the back i loosened and nothing happens. |
they do something something , i wish i remembered the sequence, just park your car near a wall, and move the screws i think its the inner one that moves it left right and the outer one up down, but still there is a correct way to aim them , with something like if your 15 feet from a wall, the beam should reach so high off the ground and so forth, but i cant remember what that is either, i never had them aimed properly though, sorry i couldnt be of more help |
I have the same problem. Anyone Help? |
well one is too high other perfect |

damn 3 hrs later i think its acceptable. i just did the kneel method to see that they are both pretty level. but one of the projector doesn't have a good cut-off? the other is great. am i gonna have to do this again when I put new bulbs? |
I'm thinking of getting a set of TYC lights for my black 2002 Civic EX. Does anybody have any pics of what the black TYC projectors look like installed on a black car??? Do they really have better lighting than stocks??? Thanx in advance |
see my pic thread for lighting pics. black on black looks pimp. http://www.7thgencivic.com/memberrid...ic1001-med.jpg http://www.7thgencivic.com/memberrid...ivic41-med.jpg |
Damn that looks awesome....ok...I'm take a set!!! |
ya check ebay they usually go for $150. thats what i paid. |
ooooo yah thats what i got. black on black baby. i will see if i can find the pics |
i think the chrome and silver ones look cheap :( |
yah thats what mines were, so i painted them black. i am at school right now so when i get home i will post pics |
projectors are better than blacked out stockies? no thread jack intended :_ontome: |
How well do these project at night?? better, worse, or the same as OE lights? Would adding foglights aid in visibility? |
actually NO. with projectors, it fills alot of the space close to the bumper. fog lights would be useless. check my night pics here with stock bulbs. planning on gettin brighter ones soon. http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=251039 |
Ok, foglights out. So they project the same as OE, just they ad more light to just infront of the bumper. Sorry, I'm slightly confused by your answer. |
just look at my pics in the link i gave. they don't project like stock, more like a W pattern. stock has a bigger blob of light that extends further. here is a pic of my stock light. compare it to the projector pics i posted already. http://www.7thgencivic.com/memberrid.../7/lights3.jpg now here is a projector shot, which looks alot dimmer http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b4...roglu/tyc5.jpg |
but isnt that the phillips vision plus in the stockers, and regular bulbs inthe projectors? my projectors came with silverstars in them, and they dont really make a difference |
true. so its not as fair i guess. the silverstar i'm gettin is clear tho not the coated one. |
from powerplus bulbs? i wouldnt have payed for the coated ones either, just they came in the highs and lows. i paid 20 bucks for the projectors with 2 sets of silverstars lol |
i'm gettin osram silverstar from ebay. paid $60 for 4 bulbs which isn't too bad. |
sweet. never thought about looking for them on there |
but yea the projectors dont put out as much coverage as stock. now i know why everyone wants a retrofit. i'll prolly do one in the distant future. |
are those silverstars better then PIAA bulbs? |
