yup, kaya ng DIY. Madali lang tanggalin yung headlight assembly (tig 2 screws lang kung tama tanda ko). Hindi kasi magkasya kamay ko pag hindi tatanggalin.

sir vinrem hindi po magbabago ang alignment ng beam. if you want to change na alignment mayron dyan inaadjust(see the label of your headlight assembly). you can adjust the beam of your low headlight up-down, left-right. once you adjust your low headlight up or down yung high headlight mo susunod din. so isa lang ang adjustment ng low and high beam. yung left-right na adjustment di ko pa nasubakan galawin.

Thanks sir valskie01 sa reply mo, mamayang hapon ko pa ikakabit ang bulb sa low beam ng carens ko, cant find a shop selling osram nighbreaker sa mandaluyong area yesterday kaya philips xp lang ang nabili ng brother ko para sa low beam ko, hope all goes well sa installation ko mamaya hehehehehe

sir sa warren auto supply(authorized dealer nag bosch) along benavedez st. near cm recto. they also sale osram nighbreaker. but for me i prefer philips xp. mas whiter ang buga kasi ng osram nightbreaker.

sir if you want awesome visibility during night and rain try to upgrade to HID 4300k for low beam and all weather bulb sa high beam just like mine. ganda ng combination nito sa gabi at ulan.

It was installed by North Customs and he does the work at his house in Proj. 3, QC or pwede rin home service. You can check-out his multiply site, http://northcustom.multiply.com/. The angel eyes cost Php5,500, HID kit Php5,500 and the amber cost 1,400. Very impressive yung angeleyes, a lot of people liked it.

You can tell the owner, Junie that I recommended you so he can give you a good price

The angel eyes were installed on the existing headlights.

Sir Bingski,

Sayo pala yung Carens sa multiply site ng NorthCustom... GANDA! I was actually communicating with them (thru email lang) regarding the same upgrade i saw on their site (of your car). Tanong ko lang sana before i proceed, what kind of projector do they install? I was told "bolt-on" daw... I assume they made use of the Carens existing projector for the low beam, yung bolt-on projector na sinasabi nila, was that added for your high beam? Thanks!

Good afternoon Carens Pro's,

Whats the biggest size tire i can have on 18" wheels (18x8 offset 42) for the Carens? I have old 18's kasi from my previous SUV that i want to use for the Carens. I'm praying na pwede pilitin 225 / 50 / R18. I know it will have a 1.17 inch difference in total diameter from the OEM spec but was hoping the wheel well is big enough to accomodate the extra-ordinary size increase... Ayoko kasi mag 45 series or below! Thank you!

I'm a girl po

Anyway, they used the existing projector of the Carens. No need to do any modifications. I guess if hindi projector ang headlight, that's the time that they can do the changes, using the bolt-on projector. I'm not an expert here so I suggest to clarify with them.

Hope you do your upgrade para madami na tayong naka-angel eyes

Maam bingski, ganda naman ng angel eyes mo....meron ba silang binutasan sa headlight assembly mo??? actually, may nakita ako dito sa china na angel eyes eh, sa isang car accessories shop, plan ko bilhin and have it install dyan sa pinas, but parang gagawa sila ng butas para maipasok ang wiring for the angel eyes eh, could you clarify lang, thanks!!!!

Ooops... Sorry mam Bingski! I hope to have the work done late next week. Sana matawaran ko sa price na nakuha mo, ang quote sakin thru email mas mahal...

If you'll have the same modifications as mine, then I can assure you that he'll give you the same price. Discounted na nga yun But he said you wanted smoke, amber, HID for low beam and fog lights, so the price will really be different. Negotiate ka na lang, mabait naman yun.

I'm not really familiar with this but my husband said that there's no need to drill any hole. Do you know the measurements of the headlight of our beloved Carens? You might buy an angeleyes that doesn't fit well so I suggest you get the ones from here. At least you're assured that the angeleyes is compatible with the car and installation will be done properly.

You wanted angel eyes rin pala so it's really going to be more than what I paid for. He told me the total cost and it's reasonable naman.

[psychon]

Yup you're right Mam Bingski, i reread the email i got from NC and kasama na pala foglamps dun sa quote! I have to learn2read again... Sorry for the confusion! Anyway, wanted to ask din sana how long it takes to have the work done? Also what kind/brand of HID di you use? Dami na kasi iba ibang klase now, would like to get a good value one. I cant wait to get it done! Thanks again!

I suggest you ask them about the HID brand and how long will it take to finish. I guess 2-3 hours. Since I'm related to the owner and number coding nung ginawa nya, he just got the car from our house then sinoli na lang. I was at the office then so I'm not sure how long nila ginawa.

One thing I can guarantee is that quality conscious ang owner so he doesn't get products na mapapahiya sya and I can vouch for the workmanship. plugging ba hehhehehhe...

Maam! Ang ganda naman ng ginawa sa headlights ninyo! Try ko nga pumunta dun sa shop nila para mapa-quote ko yung aking Sta. Fe. Maganda din siguro pa-angel eyes yun kase dalawang bilog din yun bawat side tulad ng sa Carens ninyo.

Very nicely done! Wala akong masabi!
