evo Member 33 Member For: 13y 5m 7d Gender: Male Location: East Suburbs, VIC Posted 28/05/13 11:00 AM Share Posted 28/05/13 11:00 AM Just wondering if anyone has tried the FG s1 to s2 headlight conversion? I believe the normal beam and high beam have swapped sides.I'm keen to try but waiting for some aftermarket headlights to come out for the FPV.

I would rather buy the FG series 2 headlights.

Some electrical wiring needs to be done to work properly.Apart from looks? and a more direct beam of light IMO there are few advantages, better off with some aftermarket light globes.

They're great for oncoming vehicles but not for yourself.

Also the DRL lights for FPV F6 (same as XT) look alright in black...I am considering them now.I have HID's in the standard headlights and the light is scattered a tad, I see some people flicking down their rear view mirror lol.
