jaydub Mach1 Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Good question; it has been asked many times over the past six or seven months... SAI, if you're listening: "build it, and they will come..." I am confused (which is my normal state). Some of the members seem to have a brake duct/driving light kit installed. Did you guys have SAI install the kits? Or...??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT2666 Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 SAI will install the kits now but Shelby Performance Parts doesn't have them available yet. I'm told they are shooting for the SEMA show beginning of November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you guys have SAI install the kits? Or...??? ...yes they were installed by SAI. However, they are not selling them through the web site. RUMOR has it that Scott Drake wasn't happy with design and is working on something new for the performance parts website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7ONE7 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Just got an e-mail from SAI, kit should be available NOV 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webba Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 That is good news. Do you know if they are taking pre-orders or do you think its just take em as they come once they are out? Either way I cant wait to get the light kit on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWEDESHELBY1 Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I would like both the lights and the ducts. Please post if they are taking pre orders as well so we can get ours ordered immediately. Good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT2666 Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I just got off the phone with SPP and they are saying look for them maybe in January. I talked to sales who went back and talked to they're R&D department. Sadly no good news on the kits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webba Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Shelbydream we know where the lights come from but there is a fiberglass bracket/enclosure that the light sits in that we havent been able to find or we would have done that If you find out where to get them let us know!

mrhugger Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Like Dream my package was installed at sai for $380. I love it but it took longer to get the car. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT1171 Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well, it's been a whole week and 2 days. I can't hold back anymore. Any official word on availability? Itching buy these!!

I would like Shelby branded stuff so buying it from them is all the better, but if i can find the exact same thing immediately, we'll get it right now 'cause I want it sooner than later.

stwsam Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I could not wait, so got out the hole saws, after receiving my piaa 510's. Having dissected the Shelby install on my Hertz rental, see photos in gallery, I made my own pie with functional FRP duct kit. For those interested, fog light wiring is zip tied behind the grill, so no fancy wiring. Hook up and drop a 15 amp fuse in the fuse block marked for fog lamps(see owners manual.) It worked quite easily and very gratifying. Ducts were flip flopped out side of the lights for functionality. http://forum.shelbyautos.com/index.php?s=&...album&album=122 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywickedshelby Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Nice job, I answered your question on photo 1, I think. Let me know when you are ready to take on orders for another "set"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webba Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Todd what did you mount the lights to the honeycomb insert? The ones I have seen factory installed had some sort of ball and socket looking piece made from fiberglass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stump_breaker Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 To clean up the edges of your hole you might try Radio Shack. They used to sell the speaker port tubes that have the rolled edges. Depending on the size you might make these work somehow. EDIT: Here is a a 4" port on Ebay. Here is a 3" polished aluminum port (don't know what size you need) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywickedshelby Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I was talkin to a guy at a car show that had carbon fiber all over his car, engine compartment, interior, etc... and was wondering how feasible it may be to redo the honeycomb pieces in carbon fiber for the driving light housing? The shop that does all his custom carbon fiber could make them pretty easily I was told. Does this sound feasible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son, the frideinator, is a drummer and showed me these nifty 2.5" bass drum ports that perfectly took care of the brake duct finishing. The lights are in need of a 3.5" finisher. The piaas are mounted to the back of the bumper with a air induction flange, kind of like a pseudo K&N snorkel would use. I will try to add some photos that reveal more clearly how it looks behind.

RogerS Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Nice clean installation. By the way, if not ordering the driving lights the brake duct kit is in the outboard location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT2666 Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 Been thinking I'd like to do this myself, any chance I could get more detail? I've never seen a set in real life I'd like pics of the back side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
