1) Take a look at the pictures below:

Well, driving light install would not be easy. there is just not that much to work with at all. the vends are small and there is no real place to mount the lights. Those existing "brackets" are real weak and I doubt they could hold lights well. It seems to me that mounting them in the grill would work great. Drilling into the hard plastic would work.

I took out the plastic splash guard above the A/C regulator. I'm not sure what it real purpose is but by removing it I can tell that a whole hack of a lot more cold air would be drawn to the intake. I drive my S2000 in dry conditions only so I cant see a problem doing this. Taking this item out would do wonders with an intake that came over the front brace to this area (like Spoons).

 

Great photos...thanks!

 

Time to get the Spoon CF airduct or Mingster's CF airduct ... It will do some wonders when it comes to acceleration. The issue with the driving lights, hmm I think the HIDs are good enough to provide enough projection. Anything else isn't even close or good enough. Adjust the discharge angles for better extended night vision.

 

There are several members that have installed driving lights. The one install that I saw up close and in person was S2WOOOW's car. He put his inside the grill, right under the bumper. That's where most people mount their lights. You might want to PM him to see how hard the install was.

 

Guys:

I had it done to my car with PIAA lights and it looks SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

Take a look!




I was going to have some better pics to post but my new digital camera started having "issues."

Well, I am sure you get the point! I had them installed (professionally) for $320 - 350 (can not really remember)! They are great!

 

Airgate:

Try to get some pictures, I would like to see how they mounted them and what model / dimensions they used.

 

Install was easy. I thought about the fake vents, but couldn't come up with a mounting that wouldn't vibrate too much when going over bumps. I mounted the lights directly to the bumper structure, so it is solid. Only thing I had to do was cut part of the grill out.

 

That plastic thing you call a "splash guard" is actually an "air guide" as it is written on the piece itself by Honda.

Upon the advice of axcilla and another member of this board, I took off the air guide thinking it would improve airflow greatly. This was back before the front grill experiments. This was when I had just gotten my car. Now I know better.

After driving with the air guide off, I did not notice any increase in power during acceleration at highway speeds. In fact, if anything, there was more hesitation in coming up to speed with the air guide off than on. I firmly believe that the air guide's primary function is not to keep crap out of the engine bay, but works to direct the air flow to the proper places wherever they may be as determined by Honda engineers.

Nothing scientific, but I recommend that you keep that piece on there if your airbox is unmodified.

 

Do you have any pics of it in the daylight with the lights off. I am particuallarly interested in a close up to show the "fit and finish" of the job and one from a 3/4 angle at about 10 feet. I think those two shots would give us a complete image of how it looks. BTW. Who did the install?

Yeah, I am trying to get some great pics during the day! I did take some great shots at all angles and then I had problems with my digital camera so I just need to get one from someone else or just get some prints digitized!

I will post some soon!
