2008 Hyundai Starex (Gen. 4)

Why not this one?



Yung iba may courtesy lights pa sa ilalim

I actually like these. Nga lang, kinakabahan ako kung may isang masira, kelangan palit pares.

[IMm29]

Actually, this would be the best scenario - body colored kahit w/o the LED indicators/lights, but I think this would be a lot more difficult to look for compared to just chrome ones.

Bro, just have them painted. I did the same, just don't have pix yet.

Bro, just have them painted. I did the same, just don't have pix yet.

It's pretty hard to match the glossy finish of the body kasi eh.

I had a friend who tried to paint the black mudguards of his Jazz GE.

In the end, super hirap daw i match yung color doon sa body.

I've heard the same thing about the Subaru Forester's black side mirror (2.0X variant).

This is unless iba yung plastic material na ginamit dun sa mga starex. In that case, I just might try that

[IMm29]

Ang isang pares ng sockets,- iyon yatang park lights,- double contacts na.

Iyong isang pares ng sockets,- iyong para sa brake lights,- single contact lang,- so kailangang palitan ng (double contact) sockets.

Tapos, bili ka ng 2 pares ng double contact lights... And wires.

And then, - kailangang maglagay ka ng connections to effect the park and brake light schemes...

Walang nakaabang na wires.... Kayang gawin in 30minutes (15min for each)....

12.6K:bike3:

Had this done recently. Upper bulbs are already double contact, but sockets are still single. Lower bulbs and sockets are both single. Madali lang (for the electrician I hired, hehe!) na trabaho as long as you have the parts na. Di din kasi ako DIY guy, kaya pinagawa ko na rin. ;)

Ganun ba? Hmmm... Had a paint shop do the job. And so far I'm happy how it turned out. Then again, might not have your critical eye for that detail. If you want, we could have a look at my mirrors. PM me na lang so we can meet up

[mda]

It might be the color of the car though, kaya siguro mas pansin/hindi pansin.

That, or magaling yung gumawa ng sa inyo haha.

Either way, I'll consider that. Thanks.

Might get our unit within this week or next.

Excited for a new car, pero not so much kasi van <lang> hahaha.

[IMm29]

Yung sumibak sa'kin nung Saturday meron na bro. Akala ko nga galing Hancars.

Ang bilis ng Grand Starex ah! May nang-walangya sa'kin nung Saturday nung papunta kami sa Laiya Nakipag sabayan ako hanggang 120 (kasi 2 way road, andun siya sa opposite lane ang tagal kasi sinabayan ko )

Inabutan ko nalang siya pagdating sa Blue Coral, papasok na siya ng parking

Hanep ah. I noticed na sa rekta/higher revs talaga ang buhay ng GS, unlike the Gen 3. I suppose once you get over its weight, the power kicks in and propels you real well. And its size and suspension offer much better stability.

Chip time? Hehehe!

Pwede din. Ours is a hypermetallic unit. Baka kung darker, mas obvious.

Was excited when I learned we were getting a GS. Nung dumating, excited naman. Pero I'm probably at that stage na mas nag-iingat kesa full blow excited, kaya cautious overall ang feeling ko. Hehehe!

pwede ko ba lagyan ang tci GL ko ng ganito?haha

[Starex_Gold]

pwede ko ba lagyan ang tci GL ko ng ganito?haha

Pwede yan sa lahat ng Grand Starex.

[Starex_Gold]

Hancars' CVX Premium has 2 tweeters, fully automatic climate control, 11 seats only (12 for CVX std/de luxe) - no center jump seat between driver and passenger, and in its place is a console box; steering wheel controls for TV/DVD/stereo, and also for cell phone (bluetooth mated) controls, with mike just above the visor.

Follow up question, yung CVX ba single airbag lang?

Meron kasi ako dito copy ng features ng Grand Starex nila Hancars, Driver side airbag lang nakalagay sa CVX.

IMO, you might want to invest in getting more powerful halogens (i.e. Osram Nightbreakers, or XP or the like) or perhaps bolt-on HID projector kits. The stock fogs are placed really low on the bumper, so with stock bulbs (about 35w) and a big GS front part, from the driver's seat you only get about a foot's worth of illumination after the hood.

Why not? They're an accessory of the GS naman. IMO, just don't go badging your TCi as an HVX or CVX, and you'll be just fine.

Hindi ba ganun ka-exciting bro kapag sobrang laki ng kotse ( van ) ang ineexpect ? Hehehe.

Hmmmm ... :um:

Kelan ba big day ?

Not unless gagawing bang bus

I'm just not terribly excited kasi it's a van and it's boring to drive.

This is coming from someone who has thoroughly enjoyed an old 6th gen M/T accord, then 2 FDs (first A/T then M/T)

With the same amount of money and from the same company, pwedeng genesis coupe nalang e ;)

The "big" (literally) day will probably be either late this week or next week na.

*note to imm29: Kahit bang bus, iba pa rin e :P

Nag-tatanong lang......

Yes, I noticed the very short fog lamp distance, too. Is there a yellow light HID? If yes, how many watts? What's best for dim light HID's? If I do this HID replacement, Webson of Hancars says warranty for the headlights and fog lamps will be voided.

Which brands and suppliers are best?

Which Quezon City based suppliers are best?
