    ngl as a bird owner myself i prefer the stock headlights the only thing i run is blacked out taillight covers. i watched your video from a few years ago of the build tho its a good looking trans am man

      I appreciate the feedback. Not all modifications are for everyone. I created it because I always wanted it and no one else made anything remotely close to it. I just like giving people options to create something custom for themselves. I always appreciate different builds. That's where you get ideas from.

    Nothing is needed to make a 98-02 TA look good however I wonder how a sleepy eye 93-97 would look? 🤔

    How do the high beam brackets go in? Looks like the bucket in the plate sits in towards the car where as the low beam sticks out.

    Dude looks awesome and always happy to see more products for late 4th gen birds come to market, that said I don't want to be a safety nanny but do these lights have a DOT right hand traffic (note for those reading thats different than right hand drive which is left hand traffic) light pattern to not blind other drivers?

    Any plans to do something with the brights?

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Před rokem +1

      I do plan on trying to make a bracket for the high beam location, but I'm not sure that will function well as a high beam. The light will be the same light just flipped upside down. So it won't be any brighter and will just change the direction. The light is shining. Upward instead of down at the road. Some people might want to run it as a quad low beam headlight. But currently with my LED fog lights I don't even need high beams. I drive with the headlights on and if I need high beams I turn on my fog lights. Way more than enough light

      Play replace the headlight and the high beam completely. Extremely bright compared to OEM and a sleeker look.

      No, the stoppers are just the stoppers. The hardware comes when you buy the complete kits. I used a stainless steel 1/4-20x2" bolt.

    Do you have a video of the install on the high beams as well

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Před 9 měsíci

      No not yet. Once you have done the low beam, it's pretty much wash/ rinse/ repeat. In fact, I think the high beam is easier. The plate pops in and lines up with the top and outside edge of the framework. I will make a video soon for it though.

      Fog lights you can find on eBay. They used to be called the Harley-Davidson light but now you can just search Trans Am fog light. You will need to modify the bracket to make them work and do a little bit of wire splicing.

  • @georgepumpernickel603

    This may be a silly question, but is there anything preventing the pressure from the motor stripping the gears out? I'm just curious since it is using a stopper

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Před rokem

      No. They already currently stopped by having the arm hit a stopping point. I think that's what strips the motors in the first place. Because they're plastic. But it's no different than stock. Just stopping at a different location.

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Před rokem

      The headlight is smaller so you would only need one, which is plenty bright, but I need to design a bracket for it. I haven't got my hands on a 93 - 97 yet though.

    What about high beams or these are only the low beam?

    • @jrandsr5158
      @jrandsr5158  Před rokem

      This is only the low beam. I haven't made a video of the high beam install. It's very similar but with a different orientation of the light and the plate. The plate is a different design as well. But if you can do the headlight and the high beam is pretty straightforward.

      The fog lights you can find on eBay. They were originally Harley Davidson lights. Just search trans Am fog light LED. My parking lights are modified stock housings with an LED ribbon on the inside and a clear acrylic lens. Side markers are smoked clear with LEDs.
