05mustangman Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hey guys just wanted to show off the lighting upgrades i have done to my 2010 GT500. 8000k HID Fogs 8000k Heads AND Fogs Blacked out rear lights with the LED reverse lights and LED license plate lights. Blue interior LED's with the blue ambient lights and blue sill plate. And finally just the blue sill plate lights. The stock sills are able to change colors for those who do not know that. VERY simple change of colors. You can choose between red, blue, or green. All i did was take off the sill plates, the wires and the connector on the car are mark with the appropriate colors. Just take the pins from the red wire and swap it with the color you wish to have. 5 minute mod. Thanks for lookin guys!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrickshelby Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Here's some better pics without the glare from the headlights. Where did you get those HID fog lights? Are you pleased with them? No heat melting the housings? thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05mustangman Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 I got both sets fogs and headlights from HIDGUY.net. They have been great so far and is the best lighting I have had. Have not any issues with melting housings yet. Ran the fogs for about 1/2 hour last night and perfect. The only thing with these HID's, when you unlock your car and your perimeter lighting turns on, both headlights might not turn on. The cause, the perimeter lighting only draws 8 volts of power from the battery and the HID's need 12 volts for proper operation. I hated when I would be at car shows it would take several times turning them on and off before they would both turn on. So the fix, I deactivated the perimeter lighting so now the lights don't even come on when I unlock the car. But when your car is on both turn on every time. So now that that was taken care of, again, these lights are fantastic! These are also the 8000k diamond blue lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05mustangman Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Thank you! I have been really happy with the upgraded lighting. Honestly you could drive with just the fogs on they are that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helix Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 I'm almost (by almost I mean I am) curious how to get HID's on an 03. My headlights don't see much of anything anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05mustangman Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Did you tint your rear tail lights or have them painted? Looks great! I spray tinted them using the VHT Niteshades taillight tint and just krylon clear coat. Turns out amazing when you get it all buffed and waxed. Those pics are actually before we got the lights all perfectly matched. I'm almost (by almost I mean I am) curious how to get HID's on an 03. My headlights don't see much of anything anymore. Check out HIDGUY.net. They have HID's for pretty much all late model Mustangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerbie28 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 wouldnt mind changing colors on the sill plates, is there a thread on that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nshttpd Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Nice upgrades. So nice in fact that I just ordered the fog light HID upgrade for my 2012 GT500. I'm not sure whether to thank you or shake my fist in the air at you in mock anger. -steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nshttpd Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 HAHA! You will love them! what color did you go with? Since the 2012 has stock HIDs for the main lights I just went with the OEM 5,000k white on the fogs to match (hopefully). -steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nshttpd Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Anything special that one should be warned about before attempting to install and mount all the foglight stuff? Got the box today with all the parts in there, but no sort of instructions on what not to do so that things don't blow up. Thanks for any insight of "don't do that, you'll catch on fire". -steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05mustangman Posted June 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 I honestly didn't install those myself (not very good with wiring up stuff) but it should be just plug and play. If you have done stuff like this before once you see the layout of the foglights and where each connector goes it should be easy for you. I just took mine to someone who knows a lot about wiring up lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nshttpd Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Cool. Wasn't sure about the "mounting brackets" that are in the kit. Looking at all the wiring it looks like it's pretty straight forward. If I can build a a motor I should be able to figure this out.
