    Doesn’t keep that classic look but one of the joys of owning a mini is being able to say yup that’s my mini. I was unsure of how I felt. But I just installed them and I love them. Super easy to do. Thanks love’em

    I have had no experience with non-conventional headlights, and I'm trying to troubleshoot why one high beam doesn't work. This video showed me everything I need to know. There is some additional circuitry that is not shown here, so I assume it has something to do with the daytime running light configuration that the original installer wanted. Thanks!

    Awesome! sketchy though, I swear I just went threw processing to find the ground! anyway, I found the ground (thanks) and seems the lights without the halo ring have the same ground location. And for reasons of non sence and such, I made a bike for myself and my kids and decided to make a bike that is neither a mini bike or full size bike! Can't wait to ride with piece of mind!

    Hi Phil, great video. As I understand classic minis do not have a very powerful alternators to support a lot of electronics, or advanced lights, etc. So I need to change the alternator? Also I want to get your thoughts on what is the best fog lights and driving lights I see classic minis have. I am looking for 1) what brand/type to buy and 2) How to install them without overloading the powe source. Thx

    Looks aside I like the simple setup.
    I take it all the electronics for the LED are in the housing unlike some of the other LED kits where they are in a separate unit that has to be mounted elsewhere?

  • @MikeSmith-cc4wf
    @MikeSmith-cc4wf Před 2 lety

    I have a 55 Bel Air and I put these lights in any recommendation when the headlight touches another piece of metal it changes the Halo light back to White.
    I got a funny feeling when I put my metal spring back on to my metal frame where it holds the light in on a 55 Bel Air it's sending a positive making it switch back to the White Halo look.
    It's set up for white or orange/amber color.
    Any recommendations?
    I was thinking about putting a piece of rubber around my spring to hold the light in I'm pretty sure it's making contact and then switching over automatically to White Halo instead of orange/amber color

    How is the beam pattern compared to headlights with a proper lens? That's my primary concern with these type of lights. Is it just loads of bright light everywhere, or can they be aimed to meet the DOT/SAE beam standards?

      That sounds like normal function. The amber overrides the white.

    Can I some how connect them and use the halo ring as a day running light but then also connect it to my blinker so when I turn my blinker on it switches to amber and flashes. Then when I turn it shuts off and goes back to day running white halo

    • @Stevestonmotorco
      @Stevestonmotorco  Před 3 lety +1

      Absolutely. That is how the video shows to wire them for that effect. The amber circuit for the blinkers automatically overrides the white.

    Will I need to add a resistor to avoid my blinkers blinking fast? Heard that’s a thing. Thank you.

    • @Stevestonmotorco
      @Stevestonmotorco  Před 3 lety

      If you are still using your front indicator lamps, then no. It depends on how much resistance is in the circuit after swapping to the LED blinkers. So using your existing bulbs and just adding the LED halo to the circuit shouldn't change the resistance enough to change the pace of the blinker.
