Newbie LS400 First Gen
I have a 1991 LS400. Original Black onyx paint, nakamichi sound system. Lexus LS430 Projectors retrofitted. Running lamps converted to turn signals (HID). 19" Kaotik Z5 Wheels. Panasonic 7.5" dvd system. K40 diffuser. JDM tails and corners. Looking for some new ideas. Has anybody retrofitted demon eyes (rings) into their LS?

[quote=LS400Veronica;149768]I retrofitted the LS430 with bolts. It took 4 days to get it right. I wouldn't recommend. I love the uniqueness of it. However, If I had to do it over again, I'd buy Halos and use the same LS430 ballasts without the projectors. However, it may look strange considering my lenses aren't clear. I searched far and wide for months to find a way to have this done. Everywhere I turned was a dead end. The only way to make it happen is to cut the glass off the front and replace it with a plastic lens. This is extremely difficult. car is fantastic and is in like new condition. I bought it from an oral surgeon in Boston, MA. Car has never missed an inch of service. Recently upgraded the brakes. I plan on lowering it whenever the springs go bad, (which usually isn't until about 300,000 miles). I will probably lower it 1-1.5 in.

i was trying to figure it out...but from what it looks i think he moved the stock radios down and placed the indash monitor right under the a/c where the orignal radio or w/e it is. the smaller of the two stock radios or a/c. looks like whatever is under your stock radio was removed? i could be wrong its really tough to see but thats the only thing i could figure out....the a/c vents never moved and his indash monitor is installed right under them and the other pieces were moved down. the part that looks like a compartment or ashtray might have been taken out?
only thing i can think of..

for sure, the ashtray was removed and the stock radio was moved down. seems to be alot of work to have what looks like 2 stereos and have the a/c vents blocked while open. a double din touch screen unit in place of the stock unit wouldve served the purpose and looked alot cleaner. but props on the exterior lighting!
