Definitely post them when you get them on as I'm interested in how they look.

4Churchill supposedly has them but is afraid to post pics for some reason. <hint hint>

Hummer-chan 09-24-2005 02:34 PM

Have you got them on yet? I like to see how they look, I've seen the LED one but not smoke..


Hummer-chan 09-24-2005 04:17 PM

I got it from my friend that owns a shop called AIC, in Carson CA. They customize alot of H2 and exports them to Japan. They cost about $180.00 for the corner lens (a pair) and I think $170.00 for the roof lens (10 pcs.+ bulbs). I'll try to find his web site. hope this helps....

FYI: I had ordered the smoked roof markers ... installed them and kept the stock clear LED's (I was tired of all the red and orange lights on the roof). Found that the stock LED lights were not bright enough so I upgraded these to some aftermarket PIAA Extreme White type LED's ... color is a little blue but looks good!

pics pics pics?????

05H2 10-04-2005 04:30 PM

I'll take some pics tonite ...

I bought and installed the same set as FiremanJay. I like the looks of these as they ae closer to stock looking than the others with the little circles in them.

Fit was exactly as the stock ones and installation was simple...

I left the clear leds on for a bit and now changed to the yellow and reds. The white were cool looking but didn't match up at night to the other lights.

The only problem I have is the back red leds look pink now with the smoked lenses. I have tried a few different brands and all produce the same result. I will try a few more and then switch back to white if it does not work.

If anyone wants any, let me know what kind of pics and I will post...

FYI: After trying a few more diff brands of red LED'S, I found these at pep Boys. They are called "Gel Cap Bulb Covers" and are made by "Pilot". The part# is WI-801R and are $3.99 a pair. They slip on top of the bulb and give it a nice glowing red color. Matches up quite nicely to the stock leds.

They alo had some red bulbs there that were a bit brighter than the stock reds, although they still look pinkish/orange without the cap covers...

FiremanJay 11-12-2005 10:19 PM

John did you use the stock bulbs and place those covers on them or did you place them over the red bulbs?

john5519 11-13-2005 04:27 PM

Hi Jay, both bulbs I was referring to were red...

I bought the exact same smoked lenses as you didfrom the same person on Ebay. Sorry, what I meant by the "stock" red LED bulbs were the red ones (and amber) that come with our smoked lens kit. As you know, but some here might not, is the real stock factory bulbs are all white, and the red and amber factory lens covers make them look colored. Also when you use the red ones which come with this smoked kit will make the red bulbs look pinkish...

So I put the red Pilot Gel Cap covers over the red bulbs that came with our smoked kit. I also put the same gel caps over the PeP Boys "Super Bright Premium colored 194 red bulb" ($4.99 for 2). I like the brightness of the Pep Boys bulbs better than the
other reds, they are a bit brighter and match the red brake lights better IMO...

Cool thanks for the update i will get to pep boys asap
