Thundercat Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Thought I'd post a couple of pictures of my 2004 Touring. I bought this about a month ago, it's an SE but it's been treated to an M Sport steering wheel, M Sport alloys and a full leather recaro interior.Since I've had it it's also had a full interior LED conversion (not the instruments, just boot, rear courtesy, front courtesy and map, footwells and glove box) as well as number plate LEDs. I just think the pure white light is a lot cleaner and fresher than filament, and for the money well worth it! Also installed led side repeaters, 50W equivalent sidelight LEDs and 5000k 55w HIDs, and a subwoofer in the back to combat the awful sound system. Also installed an AUX lead for the Business CD head unit, and I've got some pressed plates to go on but they didn't send me the fitting tape so I'm waiting on that arriving!Still to come: decent mats (the ones in the back are hideous!), smoked side repeaters (possibly tint spray the existing ones?) Dark tints on the back, and projector conversion. I do enjoy fiddling with things so no doubt even after I finish all this ill find something else!http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/gavlyons/Mobile Uploads/IMAG1498_1_zps0jw9pvbl.jpghttp://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/gavlyons/Mobile Uploads/IMAG1498_zpseel4g1y0.jpghttp://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/gavlyons/Mobile Uploads/IMG-20151019-WA0004_zpsv6rctjnb.jpeghttp://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y408/gavlyons/Mobile Uploads/IMG-20151019-WA0014_zpszrmsksa1.jpeg Edited November 7, 2015 by Thundercat macp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungers Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Looks clean dude but do everyone a favour & take the HIDs out until you've got projectors fitted would you? HIDs in reflectors are instant chav for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIDs in reflectors are instant chav for me.fair comment Bungers, projectors are on the list. I have angled my lights so I dont blind others, and I move the adjuster down when facing oncoming traffic anyway. I don't like it either when people put hids in reflectors but then don't adjust them!As for the wheel, I couldn't tell you! I can't take credit for the look of the car, I bought it like that!

Thundercat Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Finally got around to installing my projectors today, and to say they were £25 from eBay, I'm well impressed! Glass lens, feel quite well put together, and was a fairly simple job! I'm aiming for quad bi xenons, and I didn't bother wiring up the solenoid for the bi xenon shutter yet, as I ran out of daylight. Intending to paint the reflectors black when I install the second set so I'll do all the electrickery then. They seem to be similar in construction to the Morimotos, so they must be a clone but for 25 quid I'm well impressed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundercat Posted December 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2015 I have indeed: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=261598102796&alt=web Added a 4300k 55w set of these: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=331577978869&alt=web Fitting took a couple of hours, would have taken a lot less time if my 8mm socket hadn't sodded off into the engine bay. This YouTube vid was very helpful, although the set I've got actually took even less work, as I didn't need to file the shroud down! If anyone wants a go and wants to ask me any questions feel free!

Nice looking touring, and good work on the projectors, they make a huge difference. Bungers, I did a similar upgrade in my old coupe. I used a different retrofit kit but results are the same.

Thundercat Posted January 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 @bungers sorry about the delay, here you go: Please excuse the muck all over it, the mrs has horses and is nine months pregnant so won't drive down to them. She needs to sort her priorities out tbh! Ashley1995 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
