Homemade "fangs" (beacons on the wings). Part 1. - Toyota Mark II, 2.0 liter, 1997

The first snow brought not quite joy ... Or rather, not joy at all.
Going out to the car to sweep the snow, I saw on the hood traces of hands that had raked the snow ... Together with one of the beacon lights ...
Looking closely, I saw that both dimensions were kept on double-sided tape, which lost its properties in the cold and I almost lost them completely.

I turned to Gambrinus - 1200 rubles / piece.
But, because the second dimension is also no longer new, so you need to order two ... 2400 kilorub. somehow it's a pity ...
I'll seal the slots in the wings with a white aracal and I won't bother ...
I could not hold out on this idea for a long time. So I decided to try making them myself.
This is how they looked at the moment when they aroused tearful pity...

Go! Found a suitable piece of Plexiglas...

And here comes the second one...

For one, I will update the external, excessively shabby appearance of the base ...

2. Painted

Mounting the dimensions on double-sided tape is complete nonsense. And there is no fastening at all ...
I cut off the hat from the bolt, drill a hole in the native substrate, cut the thread, screw in the studs and fill it with Chinese "super glue" ...

It turned out quite well.

Until I got to the "Radio Shop" ... I'll buy a couple of LEDs there and put the creation on the wings. Let's see what happens)))
I found Plexiglas at work, there are also bolts / nuts and tools. I took the primer with paint from the Father.

Well, people buy the same, and normally get like, even engines with boxes. :) Chat with them, I think at least they will help with advice.

Mazol116rus 24.02.22

With shipping and taking into account how they are lost ... I don’t think it’s much cheaper on disassembly ...
How they will shine is also very interesting to me))))

Farid-116 24.02.22

Great job. 2400 to give for the original certainly I think it would not be worth it. :) Yes, and if Che is on parsing or on an Internet, I think it would have been an order of magnitude cheaper. And so for me, these are even more perfect than the original turned out. I wonder how they will shine.

Not a drop of slyness, I agree that it is more muddy than the original, but it looks no worse for me.

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Come on, what can we dissemble ... The original is better for anyone!

b
botanic 24.02.22

Yeah, they look no worse than nothing))
so shield the money saved correctly)))

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

I will paint it in the color of the car or give it to electroplating, so that they do it like the originals.
And you can find a way out of any situation;)

zizu 24.02.22

And I would paint the cases white - the color of the typewriter :) and so an interesting way out of the situation)

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Thanks for the offer! I will keep in mind and experiment more boldly)))))
Thicker and shorter - it's not scary! I'll look live if there is a need and your permission!
They offered me very nice repeaters from VAZ 2109 as a gift ))xDDD Those are really short and wide ;)))

They got to the bottom of my washers on the Sunny as if they were special signals at the Inspection. I dismantled them. Both are in the garage (like still lying) if anything, contact. True, they are thicker and shorter.

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Then it won't be Mark...

J

I would get rid of them altogether.

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

I completely agree, that's why I did it!
Fail = Buy! But I will not close up the slots on the wings 100%!

Well done, good idea. Mark's fender beacons are a hallmark of this model.

Chazzz 24.02.22

so I didn’t offer our analyzes) ) ) you should also have

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Ha ha ha! +1 ! I laughed))) I traveled around Kazakhstan, just not to stumble upon your customs))))) And you offer me to come for analysis))))
In general, the search does not stop, I look here and there, maybe something will turn up …

C
Chazzz 24.02.22

IMHO it doesn't look very good. last year, at night, 1 size was removed in the yard, I bought it for parsing for 4ue. Might be worth looking for the original.

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Possibly...on a white Mark.
If you mean paint in the color of the car, then the answer is above.

N
NortBru 24.02.22

White would look better IMHO, well done!

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

No, not yet in color, I'll see how they look like this, and then I'll think about how to transform!

c

Better than the original if painted under the light of the body!

This is a powerful one you came up with! Better than other Markovnikovs!

It worked out great! By the way, I had some Chinese ones, I bought both for 500 rubles during disassembly, put diodes and now everything is as it should :)

Well done! the appearance did not spoil in any way, but even vice versa;)
And to shoot these "horns" is blasphemy in relation to Mark.

WESTLINE STUDIO 24.02.22

People so it's easier to buy originals or come up with something instead?

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Where did you buy it, if not a secret?
The price on existential and Emex is from 800 to 1900…

W
WESTLINE STUDIO 24.02.22

As it turned out to be easier to buy (without deodes), but brand new) The issue price is 550 rubles.

M
Mazol116rus 24.02.22

Exit) There will be a desire to use it.
Thanks!
