I need headlight design help.
Monday, January 10, 2011 3:52 PM
John Benham is wanting to build me a set of projector headlights. The only problem is that i have no clue about how i would like them to look. The standard build leaves more empty area than i like. So im looking for ideas.

You could do a 3 projector setup with a hi/lo beam and turn signal kinda like this..

Haha, John. I basically copied some Sentra lights I found online. I've wanted to do mine like this for a while now.

That would be unique as far as Cavs are concerned...

The main question is, do you think that that concept is possible? You know alot more about it than i do.

I thought I remembered someone doing one kind of like this on here before? I want to say it was for the 00-02 style head lights though.

There is a yellow cavalier that has them done, but I think they were stock lights from Israel. If I remember correctly.

You are correct sir.

Bubba never finished anything but his own set of regular retros, and even those I wouldnt call finished.

There was an 03+ Cavy with what looked to be the same design as the lights on the yellow Cav on the homepage... The 03+ was yellow also. I coudn't find a pic tho... but it had the 3 lights, 2 projectors and another for the corner lights.

No, not that one. I thought I remember some one working on one with a similar style to the chop I did. I have no idea who or if they finished it though.

Those headlights look out of place on a stock front. Idk they just dont flow. Too much going on for a relatively smooth and clean front end. May flow worse with the Xtreme kit too but we'll see.
