s2k lights?

bui1528 · 02-11-2009, 01:39 PM

so i found this completely demolished s2000 on craigslist in my area...
it is completely burned

what are the chances that the projectors still actually work...
all i want are the projectors

mattyv · 02-11-2009, 01:46 PM

hard to say from pics... if its not far from you it might be worth checking in out in person

**0720Steve** · 02-11-2009, 01:48 PM

worth a looksie. i bet the shrouds and projectors would be good.

**GETxERxDONE** · 02-11-2009, 01:49 PM

they should be sealed so no smoke and crap should have gotten inside. and the lenses still look intact on the headlights so nothing should have damaged the shrouds either. definately worth a try!

bui1528 · 02-11-2009, 01:51 PM

alrite.. iw as thinkin of drivin out and lookin at it
itd be nice to do a retro with these

hopefully the guy lets them go cheap =D

when i do go up there. is there anything i can do check and c if the projectors still work?

**GETxERxDONE** · 02-11-2009, 01:53 PM

well they arent mechanical so just check the lense and make sure its all still clean and clear and nothing is melted or something like that

bui1528 · 02-11-2009, 02:14 PM

ok sounds good.
im goin to check them out this friday before i pick up my other parts =D

**0720Steve** · 02-11-2009, 02:23 PM

good luck.

you planning on using them for a retro or going to sell them. i'd get anything you can use/sell off of it.

**GETxERxDONE** · 02-11-2009, 02:33 PM

i think he said retro.

i dont see how people find stuff on craigs list..

bui1528 · 02-11-2009, 03:20 PM

lol r u saying u dont know how i found those?
i was originally lookin for tsx projectors, but no luck
so typed in s2000 and that popped up haha.

hopefully they work.

**GETxERxDONE** · 02-11-2009, 03:23 PM

pretty much. everytime i look on there i get a bunch of random junk is there a way to search for part outs or something?

**0720Steve** · 02-11-2009, 03:25 PM

the key is your search tag. and being consistent. there aren't golden finds on ebay or craigslist often. it's those people who look, and look, and look, who find the steals.

try different search words, try them every couple days. or put up some wanted ads too.

bui1528 · 02-11-2009, 03:43 PM

i get really lucky when i search on craigslist.
found my hfp rims for 600 bux.
all four including kuhmo tires, only 6k on them haha =D

bui1528 · 02-11-2009, 04:03 PM

quick question..
im getting a HID kit and i hear i can use the ballasts from that kit?
would that last me awhile or would i have to upgrade later.

from what ive read the hella gen3 are pretty good ballasts?

FijiSan · 02-18-2009, 05:05 PM

to use ballasts from a PNP kit you need to buy an adapter....retrofitsolutions.com i believe might sell what you're lookin' for, and i've got a craigslist gem for you you might be interested in, PM me

bui1528 · 02-18-2009, 05:36 PM

go ahead and pm me

**0720Steve** · 02-18-2009, 05:37 PM

so did you get them?

Leonard1818 · 02-18-2009, 05:54 PM

What are you looking exactly?. I have everything out of an AP1 minus the projectors of course. Do you want the ballasts?

**0720Steve** · 02-18-2009, 09:46 PM

no, i personally don't want it. i was suggesting he snatch up anything worthy of keeping or selling back off.
