I've been playing with LED's for quite some time now doing LED retrofits for my AP2 headlights. Recently some of my AP1 buddies asked me what I can do for their car so I took a set apart and played with it.

Read about my AP2 headlight LED's here:

It seems the biggest drawbacks to AP1's:

a) Looks outdated with the big amber reflector
b) Plastic gets burned over time
c) Naked blinkers still look dated

So I took what I learned from the first AP2 setup and this is my initial setup for my buddy. The LED's behind the smoked amber reflector will blink orange for perfect legality concerns. It can be wired based on each owner's custom tastes meaning I can make perhaps the center strip a parking light (stays on) and the two other strips blinkers or any number of combinations. I can even do 4 vertical LED strips if need be.

Again this is a totally custom setup so the end result is limitless. I'm building 2 sets right now for local bay area s2ki members so PLEASE give me your input!

PM me with any questions

The 6000k white LED's up front are part of my Audi look and each individual part can be done separately or combined for a very cool headlight that draws virtually no power and never heats up!

So to sum it up this AP1 headlight has:

1) Painted gloss black headlight trim
2) 6000k white LED Retrofits on lower portion
3) Vertical LED strips that as as parking / blinker lights

As they say pictures speak a 1000 words so here is what I've done:

I actually do. That's slilck.

 

I agree it looks ok, I'm just not a fan of LED's.

 

u just sold a set to my buddy... they look hawt...

 

those look sick, cant wait to see them on a car so i can make up my mind whether to send you my headlights or not

what if you were to put the LED's vertically along the side of the sidemarker as well?

 

chris, come to jersey... well meet up and grab some grub and beers... come to think of it u still owe me a beer and a cheese steak... mother fawker...

 

y do i owe you? ill trade a beer for a cheesesteak

lets do it up on saturday?

 

cuz i found that guy that bought your exhaust...

cant do saturday... this weekend is already jam packed

 

who is your friend?

Ask him to post some pictures taken at dusk....best time to show off the intensity and details of the LED setup! I sent a set to a guy in Miami and waiting on him to post some pictures too....

LED's is an individual thing for sure - we all have different tastes so that's ok. I find a lot of the body kits and JDM crap ugly but I understand it's an acquired taste. Not every mod is for every person or otherwise we all might as well buy the same car and leave it stock

vinny from s2ki... his name is nfrs2k04 or some **** like that...

 

I think they look pretty slick. Although I don't like the all clear AP2 headlamps. I like the amber in mine.

 

Looks sweet but you may want to try a higher Kelvin LED to give it a slightly Ice Blue hue... but nevertheless, well done!

 

why for?

 

to give it that "boy-racer" appeal

 

so that he can stand out in the parking lot of white castle where hes hard parked so all the rice-bois can swing from his nuts...

 

im a fan!!
i just dont like those LED's in the front bumper, the lights look hot though

 

see i love the daytime lights... actually i like the combo... it grows on you...

 

i definitely need to send you my headlights when the winter comes

 

If you have any questions just PM me

I agree the bumper lights are not a good fit for the s2000.....these were originally meant for the NSX guys as I had this on my own nSX as well

I'm digging them because the AP1 headlights feel dull to me.

 

More pics of yellow car please...

 

i like. you got skills bro

 

i like the spacing and the layout of the current ap2 lights you have on your car, can you run those same led's in the ap1 housings?

 

Yes you can run either type of LED's on your choice of ap1 or ap2 headlights.

Thanks for the kind words ~ glad you like them!

here's a few more pictures of the yellow s2000, any questions drop me a PM!
