Bespectacled))) — Toyota Corolla, 1.6 liter, 2007

My beloved gave me this idea, knowing my "illness" in this direction of tuning.
I have never seen anything like this on Corollas or on any other typewriter!))))
I attached the “glasses” securely, I think Karcher is not a problem, besides, they are isolated in a waterproof case.
Well, actually look and evaluate the result!
I apologize in advance for the quality of the photos, taken with my phone.

All the photos below were taken at 11 pm:
the rings and dimensions are included, the
phone blurred the photo so that the rings themselves are not visible, but one general light ((, in real life, of course, it’s different

this photo also turned out with smeared rings (((

ps So far, the "glasses" are parallel to the dimensions, I ask for help in finding a circuit in which they would turn off when the foglights are turned on.

p.s By the way! I saw Philips Silver Vision lamps in the city
in a store next to Schumacher. But their price, sorry, for 2 bulbs in the turn signal to pay 700 rubles, although they are pontoon, I have not decided yet)))
Here is an example of how they change the look of the turn signals

psss It is also possible to install orange rings and make turn signals out of them - infa for thought)))

Issue price: 450 ₽

ok ... let's get started))))) five)

looks interesting in the sense, I don’t delve into the craft yet, with that later) right now, digging money)

alkatras 18.01.22

and detail?! ))) And where is the assessment of non-man-made works? ((((

somebody 18.01.22

interesting))

That's for sure)

Glad you liked it! The main thing is that the LED strip is insulated!

It will not work to glue it into the fog along the edge, I myself bothered how to do this. Tried to paste. Due to the bevel of the foglights, the ends of the diode line do not converge, I puzzled for a long time how to put the ring there, did not come up with anything, as a result I painted the foglights black to match the headlights and calmed down on this. And you suggested an interesting solution. Thank you. I’ll try to do the same and I’ll have not only headlights with angel eyes, but also foglights.

alkatras 18.01.22

Everything is easier than ever! ))

How I did it so far: I bought an LED ruler in transparent insulation, measured it, cut it off and stuck it on 2-sided tape on two planes and that's it! the wiring is carried out so that it is not visible and is paralleled to the dimensions, i.e. "points" are included along with the dimensions.

how to do it better if possible: mount it using the same method, just disassemble the PTF and stick the LED ring to the very edge. The nuance is that not all PTFs can be disassembled. But I did not delve into mine! I don't think there is any reason to doubt the tightness.

ps in principle, I liked it myself, it looks cultural and not collective farm!

Cool! How does it all work?

Exactly! ))))
ps interesting site however!

Thanks for the positive rating! )

hello =) Cool little thing, looks very nice! In the fogs, the light can be turned off =)

a
alkatras 18.01.22

If the fogs are turned on and the rings are shining, then it doesn’t turn out very well, because fogs are not xenon.

Heigross 18.01.22

It worked out great. If the fogs are not xenon, then you can throw them directly

efimovvv 18.01.22

it's all hard)

a
alkatras 18.01.22

Well, yes, without fogs in any way)) Although there are many options without fogs, just conjure over inserts instead of regular fogs))) Look in my BZ for earlier entries and you will find interesting options))

e
efimovvv 18.01.22

looks interesting, I would do it too, only fogs need to be bought first)

a
alkatras 18.01.22

Yes)) I glued 2-sided tape on two planes.

Do you have LED strips on tape?

a
alkatras 18.01.22

Under the influence of industrial Karcher, it does not peel off!

C
CuHuu 18.01.22

won't it peel off? water will get in, plus it's just humid with us

a
alkatras 18.01.22

Thank you)))

Turned out great, tasteful! Catch 5 :)

a
alkatras 18.01.22

Yes, there is half an hour of work, but it is better to isolate the tape additionally so that moisture does not get in!

zubo4istka 18.01.22

Fine! when I put fogs on myself, I thought about this idea, but for some reason I postponed it until better times, because over time it was problematic :)

a
alkatras 18.01.22

I bought a waterproof LED strip, stuck it on the plastic lining in the bumper under the PTF and led the wires in the gap between the PTF and the plastic lining into the engine compartment itself))
But I will upset you a little, all the same, due to poor insulation, the LEDs on the ribbons began to burn out (((

geor88 18.01.22

sir please explain in more detail. an honest word from the bottom of my heart ... Pts liked the LEDs on the PTF, but I still didn’t understand about 2 planes =) that is, you didn’t go inside (didn’t disassemble the PTF), namely, they stuck it on the outside with 2-sided tape and that they really don’t jump off the spot with a car-share? and if from the outside, how was the wiring pulled through the plastic PTF insert or something else?

a
alkatras 18.01.22

can! you need to take a flat filled tape with the location of the LEDs on the end of the tape, there are some!

g
geor88 18.01.22

you didn’t upset me, but killed me =)) just kidding ... annoyingly because I want to do the same. But is it really impossible to improve their tightness? Or buy more expensive and better? thanks for the description.
