Can someone provide me with detailed instructions on how to remove the headlamp housing?

Also, how to adjust the beam pattern?

thx

**UPDATED: Please note that Option 2 is obsolete and superseded by Option 3**

This How-To is for those who would like to install an HID kit in a 2008 Lancer that comes equipped with factory Daytime Running Lights (DRL's).

The advantages of these solutions are:

1) They do NOT require splicing into the factory wiring at all, thus saving any warranty...

Well it's cold as hell and I have a bunch of CF Vinyl I wanted to use on my bumper.
While I'm waiting for warmer weather I decided to do my fuel door. Read on!

PS. This was my 3rd time ever applying vinyl to anything, so if I can do it anyone...

So im looking around the market for a lip kit. NOT a body kit. i dont want new bumpers all i want is a lip on the front and the sides since i dont have a GTS.and i don't want the GTS ones either.


if anyone knows of a website that could help me that would be great. default/grin.gif' ...

So I just got my 09 Lancer GTS a couple of weeks ago and I've been reading about how to paint the front bumper part. I was trying to decide between Vinyl or just paint and I just decided to go with paint.

First of all, this is my first time ever painting a car or using a spray can(I know it's pathetic) and I decided that if by any chance I would screw up, I would just take it...

My Shark Fin finally arrived looks so much better than the R/C of the stock antenna. A little blue radio bar to go with th neons already in che car. I also changed my liscens plate bulbs with LED blue one. Will take pics of the other stuff I mentioned.

What is the best company for HID kits? and how hard are they to install

I was at the dealership and sat inside an EVO. Is the interior the same as the regular Lancer? Not the steering wheel and stuff like that but is the dash made of the same material? It looks the same, and I would be **** if I paid $35-$40k for a car that has the same interior as a $20k car.

Wooooho! Yesterday was a good day for yours truly! A couple of packages arrived in the mail. (1) my new (which I'm sure you all care about) and, (2) more importantly, my !

Thing is really nice, and the color match is perfect. Check it out:

Or get both in a combo set for (1 plug + 2 bumper plugs $19.99 / 2 of each $24.95)

I haven't seen anyone mention this yet but I was looking at the Mitsubishi website last night and under the lancer accosories is a chrome insert for the lower grill. I don't know if I just haven't noticed it there before but I think it's new. Anyone got a pic?

so yesterday i went to work. i take public transportation to work so i parked by the train station and was on my way. 8 hours later, after being on my feet all day, i stroll towards the car thinking of how nice its going to be to go home, sit down, take off my shoes, and drink a beer default/beer.gif' ...

I am just wondering if anyone else has "air noise" coming from their back drivers side door?

I can hear air coming from the door/window when I am driving. I took the car back to the dealership a week after I got it and they told me that it was just wind noise... It is coming from one door only and I can't feel any air.

Plus, I can hear it city driving when...

There was a how-to somewhere a while back. Finally got to it. Tell me what you guys think.

Also going to post some pics of my debadged trunk and painted fastkey button soon.

hey does anyone know how to change the side marker lights? I mean do they just pop off or do you have to go in from the interior of the fender? i wanna put different color bulbs in but no idea how!

Went to Mitsubishi's website and looks like they added some new stuff for the 2009 Lancer. My favorite... the Touring Package. What's the Touring Package you ask? Well, let me elaborate! The Touring Package upgrades your stock halogens and headlamp housing to HIDs with the auto leveling projector housing (with auto on/off function). You also get Active Stability Control with...

I was checking on thier site and found some mud flaps for the 08 Lancer GTS... They look alright but dont know how much I like the look of them, they look real cheap and flimsy... what does everyone else think.... I guess if it helps from my paint ever chipping than I may try it.





The only other option would be to get the 3M clear protectant on my car around that...

I want to see if I like how it looks (if it looks like an evo a little bit). I could get it for $30. Thanks for your help.

I'm looking to buy a lancer 09 GT... was thinking about getting tint for it.... was wondering if i get it done by the dealership/factory or what not (sales guy said its around 300 bucks CDN) is there still a problem with scratches (do they already install the moleskin) ... or does the problem only affect those who tint it by a outside shop.

Hey guys, I have a 2008 Lancer GTS, and was looking to install interior LED lights under the seats and in the footwells, but I have no idea how to hook up the fuses correctly. I've have almost no knowledge on electrical wiring, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

For those who got theirs installed after you bought you're car, was there any space between the car and the sills? I just got them installed at the dealership, after the first time they put it on there were pretty large gaps, they redid and its better but there are still some small gaps. Now I had the front bumper extensions done also and those fit perfectly. They said those were screwed in...

Any professional here can contribute good idea to upgrade the accessories for this 2008 lancer?

Any kind of accessories from inside to outside car

I just got a 09 lancer gts but I really like the look of the new evolution hoods. Will the evo X hood fit on the lancer gts?

My friend who is a big audi fan and owner turned me onto these guys

They are good and no lie $75 for everything shipped.

Admin should pin this, it is a good place to find HID kits for any car.

Anybody know where I can snag a cargo net that will fit our cars? I tried my local autozone and even Target, but nada!

I JUST GOT MY '09 LANCER GTS SO I'M PRETTY NEW TO THIS SITE. I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THERE WAS ANYHERE TO PURCHASE THE NEW RALLIART / EVO MR GRILLE, AND IF WOULD FIT ON THE GTS. I'D IMAGINE IT SHOULD BEING AS IT IS THE SAME CAR. SO IF ANYBODY HAS ANY INFO IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRETIATED.

Has anyone installed side and/or sunroof wind deflectors on their 08 lancer?
I ordered some and am curious to know how they look. I guess if no-one else posts pics, I will once mine arrive.

On another note, the wind deflection is really bad on these lancers without the deflectors, in my opinion. I'm hoping the deflectors will help.
I can't even roll my window down...

May i know whose is the expert here in carbone fibre and are working in this industry.

I was thinking, is that possible to replace the whole car seat structure into carbon fibre instead of iron . so that can be lighten the weight and reduce gas comsuption

So, some lovely person put a huge scratch across my trunk yesterday when I was at work... I have ordered a touchup pen from Mitsubishi. I am just wondering how well the paint matches the original paint?

(I bought the car about a month and a half ago, it was used, the guy who had it before me decided to patch the hood up with a pen, it looks as if he went to Canadian Tire or something...

This redesigned 2008 EVO X Carbon Fiber Hood is just what you car needs to give that competition look. Carbon By Design has re-shaped the center scoop so that more fresh air enters the engine bay by the turbo. Also, the side vents have been enlarged and deepend into the engine bay so that more of that hot air from the intercooler has a better chance of escaping. Remember, If your engine is...

I have added some emblems / vinyl to my 09 lancer gts and was wondering what everyone thought of it...... like or dis-like?
I think I like the gts and 2.4 emblems, but not sold on the vinyl lettering yet.... just looking for opinions. Thanks.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of installing HID lights in my 09 Lancer, its brand new so I don't want to screw around with the warranty, I was wondering if installing the lights would void my warranty in any way???

I'm new to this forum, and I am about to get a new 08 lancer ES(I'm pretty excited, first new car!)

The only 2 mods in the near future I see are wheels and putting on the gts front airdams...

I've found them online already, but I was wondering about the install. Are they actually bolted on, or is it just 2 sided tape. Would it be that hard?

Thanks

Hi, Anybody can tell me, dose the 2008 Lancer in the USA, Canada and Australia has come with electric side folding mirro?

I used the search function and I couldn't find anyone talking about their 2009 Lancer's having paint problems (good sign I hope)...

So I wanted to know, does anyone here have a 2009 Lancer with paint problems? Thanks.

what do you guys think about this?
im just curious because im planning on buying a kit in the next month or so.

Basically, did anyone know, what is the theory or purpose of fixing a rear spoiler for car?

Has anyone bought and installed this item? Does it work well or just plain ugly? lol


Pictures attached below.

I'm not sure if some of you read a previous topic of mine....about water in the rear spoiler. When I open up the trunk I can hear a little bit of sloshing around...not much, but enough.

Anyway I opened the trunk tonight & noticed that there are (4) bolts that I thought was holding it on. After removing the (4) bolts, I still could not remove it. Makes me think that the rubber...

I'm looking for help in replacing my stock cloth seats with leather instead. Has anyone done this and could give me some insight on how it came out. I found someone on CarDomain who did it and he posted pictures. Here is the link. Leather seats on a GTS

Mitsubishi should offer owner the option colored wheel emblem. After all it would be free advertisement for Mitsu. Anyway decided to paint them myself.

Spray paint ($1)
clear tape (for masking, clear so I could see and cut for inside corner)
