I currently have a set of 5000K halogen Hoen foglights for my car. My friend wants to upgrade his 5000K HID kit to a 6000K bulb. So what I was thinking was buying a 6000K kit for my fogs, giving him the 6000K bulbs while he gives me some cash and his LIGHTLY used 5000K bulbs. All in all, I get a 5000K HID kit for about $130.
Is it worth upgrading my foglights to full HIDs?

Saw this over at Project Lancer and I figured I would share the sexyness.


Ohhhhh baaaaaaaaaaaby! You can snag a set
HERE... at the hefty cost of about $71 USD (before shipping).

Personally, I like the look of blue fogs. However, that kinda defeats the purpose of having fog lights cuz they won't work very well in the fog. I'm planning on getting either PIAA or Nokya or something along those lines. Do you guys have any suggestions?

I have a problem with the interior dome light and i want to know if anyone else has had this problem or is it just my luck?...
The problem is that when i set the switch to door it doesn't turn off... i have the HDD navigation system and i set it to dim out in 7.5 seconds.... now the problem is that it stays on i have to put the switch in the off position, or else the light just stays on. I made sure everything was closed (it was) and the little thingy on the dash says all my doors were closed fine..
any solutions ? If i can't get any help i will turn to the dealership

This Sat. I am going to get tints on my 2008 Silver Mitsubishi Lancer DE. I am going to get the Lumar tints but I was thinking of either getting 30% or 35% all around but not sure which one. I am not sure because of the black interior. I am not sure yet if i am going to get the windshield done, if i do get the windshield done i am probalby goingto get a visor also...
So can I get your opinions and/or pics? Oh and also I have been seeing people saying that if you tint the windows you will need to get the protector thing. Is that true for all of the 2008 models or certain ones?

Okay so ive been browsing these forums along with project lancer and 4b11. There seems to be some confusion regarding the tinting problems of the 2008 and if it carried onto the 2009 model. Does anyone actually have a real basis for a solid answer?(experience) Most of what i read was based on implication.

Hi everyone,
Well I am currently looking into buying a 2009 Lancer (not quite decided on the trim level yet).
I haven't heard of any HID options coming along stock with this car, but have noticed that one of the EVO X cars at my dealers lot has some projector headlights with HID's. At first glace the headlights seem of the same size as the Lancers do, so can someone confirm if they are a match?
Thanks!!

Well, once again looking to mod my future car... I'm probably going to jump on the first set of evo projector HID's I see, so I want to use my stock ones for a project. I plan opening them up and painting every the chrome black on everything where it isn't needed (everywhere that not used to reflect the light basically).
Example:
A project I did with 1 mach HID focus headlight. Looked good but it wasn't in working order lol. (Dont have pics of the finished product I lost all but that one in HDD crash)
I would paint everything black with a nice clear coat. Now the meat of the question is, are lancer heads easy to disassemble? Will I have to goop them up with silicon to reseal them up properly?
Its still a young car but theres probably someone thats tried it right? I hope....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/08-MITSUBIS...sspagenameZWDVWJust curious....I have a bad habit of being on E-Bay & always looking for something new for our cars.
I like the idea of this & I would like to know if anyone else on here has this & what they think of it.
Not a bad price huh? Kinda cheap$$$
Since I have the CVT....no way that thing would ever fall off the dash & land on my lap from a take off

So I'm gettin this wax job from the dealership called Xzylon. I guess its the same stuff the air force one has on it! Its a 5 year wax that molecularly bonds to the paint molecules. Anyone have it? Anyone like it?

Does anyone know if you can change the bulbs on the dash, or if it's all LED's soldered to a circuit board?
I'm not a big fan of the red, so if I can (when I pick one up) I want to know if I'll have to dust off the soldering iron or not...

Right, lets set a few things straight. There is
NO Carbon Fiber GT Concept hood available! Any website claiming to sell this is straight up lying!
Extreme Dimensions are still undecided on if they want to put a carbon fiber version of this hood into full production.
We are now taking pre-orders for the new
GT-Concept Fiberglass Hood for the 2008 Lancer.
Our price is $525 w/free shipping as always.
any orders will ship out on 6/6/08

I've been getting sick of my car looking like an RC car with it's super long antenna, so I decided to do something about it. The common option is the sharkfin antenna, but the $80 price tag was too much for something that's probably worth 80 cents. My only other option was a shorter antenna.
First I decided to remove the antenna altogether to see how it would look, but I didn't like the fact that the port where the antenna would normally screw in was exposed so I decided to fill it. Using a 5mm screw that I had from my HID kit (from MobileHID.com), I put a rubber plug on top of the screw and tried it out on the car. The turn out wasn't so bad, so I took it back home and made some small additions. I put some aluminum foil in the cap to close up any gaps between the screw and the plug, used all purpose superglue to hold it all nice and tight, and let it dry overnight (although it only takes about 5 minutes). Put it on this morning and snapped some pics. Excuse the quality, my Canon is dead and the only option I had was my cellphone.

Completed Item

Up close

Side view

Distance
Took me a grand total of 5 minutes to complete and was free of charge since I made it with stuff I had in the house. Tested it and all my AM and FM stations work crystal clear. Unfortunately, I don't have the Sirius service so I was only able to test the Weather Station... which also works beautifully.
Personally, I love the outcome and just wanted to share my mini-mod with everyone as well as hear some opinions. Thanks for stopping by!
