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...
Sawed off and cut the bar ...
In rough turned ...
Then tweaked some more...
The first one went!
And here comes the second one...
For one, I will update the external, excessively shabby appearance of the base ...
1. Processed
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.
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))))
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.
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;)
And I would paint the cases white - the color of the typewriter :) and so an interesting way out of the situation)
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.
I completely agree, that's why I did it!
Fail = Buy! But I will not close up the slots on the wings 100%!
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 …
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.
Possibly...on a white Mark.
If you mean paint in the color of the car, then the answer is above.
No, not yet in color, I'll see how they look like this, and then I'll think about how to transform!
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 :)
and I really liked the "boots" =)
Pts looks good ... and someone's hands are golden;)
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.
Where did you buy it, if not a secret?
The price on existential and Emex is from 800 to 1900…
As it turned out to be easier to buy (without deodes), but brand new) The issue price is 550 rubles.
