How To Install Demon Eyes and Honeycomb Lenses | Nissan 370Z | FlyRyde

[@RAMZIAARON]

so YOURE the GUY that makes me hate other drivers.

[@flyryde]

Ramzi Aaron how so?

[@4schitzangiggles]

The lines in the lens actually help to aim the light output more precisely, so it doesn't blind oncoming traffic. Do you go out and test your creations to ensure you aren't actually causing issues and being a general dick to others on the road? I hope so, when I mod stuff, I do it with an aim to not "be that guy" that is creating issues where none needed to exist. I love your mods, but take a min to ensure that the mods you're doing don't cause issues for others. When you think only about how cool it looks for you and to hell with everyone else, you create momentum for overreaching and needlessly asinine laws to get passed.

[@flyryde]

I’d like to first give a legitimate acknowledgment that what you both posted was understandable and seemingly for the good of others. Here’s where I get real, and I promise, I’ll make a video on this, not only to correct anyone that’s confused, but because I genuinely DO care about you guys learning something. So about getting real, the aspect of this video referring to “blinding” people, is in reference to someone standing directly in front of your car looking at about a 45 degree angle down at the headlights with the low beams turned OFF, demon eyes on, with enough “blinding” light to catch your general attention, more like a “woah, what was that?” The part of the video where I talk about Fresnel lenses versus crystal clear, I challenge you to first research, then get first hand experience, then come back with any valuable knowledge to correct anything in this educational video. A clear lens projector will be found on certain projectors, such as the JDM or Euro spec 2015+ GTR lights compared to the factory North American spec lights of the same year. The difference in the two compared side by side will show exactly one difference: Clarity. You can see the output more clearly, where it is designed to go. Not up in someone’s eyes. Not up on stop signs and back windows of cars like all the DBag truck drivers with reflector housings and HID/LED “upgrade” bulbs... Clarity on the road, and specifically the cut off line. The absence of the lines/dimples/frosted pattern on the projector lens, allows for a sharper line, with a bluer “prism” or “flicker”. You’ll notice this as well from many current LED equipped factory headlights, or Luxury cars with HID from years past. They have sharper cut off lines. That is what the clear lens gives you. All the keyboard warrior talk, or tisk tisk BS uninformed concern that will continue to be added to this video is both expected (sadly) and yet understandable. Lastly, if you saw this on the road, you wouldn’t hate me. You wouldn’t run me over. You wouldn’t say anything to me. You wouldn’t correct me, or frown. You’d walk past the car, notice some glowing lights with a weird pattern, and either like it or not care. If you were to visit my shop and see this kind of custom work in person, you’d say the things inside were cool and you were glad to have stopped by and met me.. and that I was bigger in real life than you expected. That is all.

[@RAMZIAARON]

@@flyryde I was referring to being blinded by the lights but I was really just kidding around. I think it looks great and I am also jealous of the people who have nice cars with cool ass lights on them, as anal rampage stated because I actually think they look dope. good work brotha.

I actually appreciate all the tips and tricks you put in here. Who knew watching a 25 minute KZbin video would make me a demon light enthusiast. I always wondered what was in the projector that caused the cutoff look. I thought it was the lens but in reality it's the window in the back. Which I'm guessing is like a shutter.

[@feta8939]

I just used a piece of honey comb vinyl on the back of my projector lenses. Its much more cost effective and can be taken off if you decide you wanna go a different route with your etched lenses. This was my first ever headlight retrofit on my Q50 and turned out perfectly. cost me $450 all together in parts and the install wasnt that difficult. Just time consuming. The parts i used for my build were the Lightingtrendz flow series rgb kit and custom dynamics demon eyes.

[@InuTaishoMaru]

This sounds light a great idea until you realize what heat does to vinyl. it will probably look cool at first but give it time and you'll see peeling.

[@samkelvin8357]

Believe me I can watch what you do all day and I will never get bored of it God bless you

[@flyryde]

That’s awesome, lol thanks Sam 🙏

[@YTGreyita]

Chris great stuff man. Just one quick comment about the Fresnel lens. The lines in the lens are there to bend the light straight so it doesn't flood in all directions. The lines do nothing to soften the light. Essentially with a Fresnel lens you can direct the light without blinding oncoming drivers. A full clear light is a flood lens and lets light go in all directions looking brighter but in fact it's the same intensity as the Fresnel. Might be safer for cars driving towards you to have the Fresnel with honeycomb etched in it. Anyway love the channel and content! Keep up the great work man!

Aweosome video! I was around to watch the interior of the projector since my xenon lights don't light as I think they should anymore... So, I'm thinking the reflectors inside are toasted.. I'm thinking on opening my headlights and see if that part is replaceable or to chrome it back or even wrap it with aluminium/chrome reflective tape before replacing the whole thing... This will help me planning my move.. Thank you!

[@mohdabd459]

I have a question and I need your advice please, I have 2011 Chevrolet Cruze and planning to install LED projectors but I do not know if that will create any electric issues or any errors. Kindly advice me on this. Thanks.

[@gamingofthelegend3907]

Where do I buy the honeycomb etch headlight from?

[@luisamoa2500]

Nice work:) I work for a medical company and I build prototype vein finder machines. We also use highpower leds and for edging where wires make 90 degree turns an epoxy it's used. Not a fan of double sided tape for an area that is exposed to high heat.

[@flyryde]

The great thing about tape, is it works so well, and still, it’s not permanent. Glues and more hardcore adhesives basically are a commitment to always keep it the same, even if the product fails down the road. Not fun to pull parts out that are epoxied in, but it’s definitely something that happens.

[@luisamoa2500]

@@flyryde totally understand. Agreed:)

[@JaySimons1]

I think that 3M double sided will generally hold up, but the electrical tape that its adhering to generally wont. You know what they say about the weakest link in a chain, if that electrical tape comes off, which it probably will in that scenario, the double sided goes with it no matter the strength of the double sided. I don't think most think about that.

[@shawntame45]

[@carlostrevino2990]

I just installed a projector into my stock g35 coupe headlights and originally the socket where the projector is takes a h4 bulb but now the projector takes a h1 bulb. Is there anyway to make the bulbs work?

[@flyryde]

to make the h4 bulbs work in the little h1 slot? That'd be a hard no my friend.

[@carlostrevino2990]

@@flyryde lol that's not what I meant. What I mean is the stock bulb used to be a h4. But since I installed the projector the projector takes a h1 bulb. Is there a way to make the h1 bulb work? I'm assuming I would need some sort of harness or adapter because again normally the connector is for a h4 bulb if that makes sense.

[@flyryde]

Carlos Trevino got it. So you have a 3 wire connector, that runs the high and low beam normally. The highbeam wire when activated can be run to the solenoid wire (guessing you have a bixenon projector), BUUUUUUUUT... you’ll also need a rectifier diode (look that up on Amazon) to send power from the highbeam wire to the lowbeam wire, to make sure your H1 bulb, or at least the ballast or driver powering that bulb, still gets power during high beam. Most times H4s need this to be converted to run high and low, otherwise you lose the low beam when the highs are on. Solenoid will work... but no light, haha.

[@monarchthedj8357]

what if you put one demon eye on the bottom and one on the top would it shine on the road and also have a blinder effect?

[@flyryde]

Look at the Genesis Coupe Headlight in the beginning. The demon eye has one of each. We did an Aston Martin last year with 2 demon eyes in each Projector. It was cool , but kinda seemed like a lot of extra effort for not much different of a look.

[@ramonacevedo3844]

I have a blue and a red led demond eye that I bought a long time, ( one color each does not change color like your ) don't remember from where. I have not use them yet. Would it be possible to intall both in the in each proyector? Have you done this? How would it look? Thoughts!!

[@flyryde]

It’d give you blue, red, and purple. If that works for you I guess it’d be worth it? Or you could sell em and get something that does it all.

[@frederikgrosskopf4138]

Could you use hot glue to hold the led in place inside of the projector instead of the 3m tape?

[@flyryde]

Frederik Grosskopf what happens to hot glue when it gets hot 😉 Never use hot glue on anything headlight or tail light related. I used to early on, and I remember seeing lights I built a year later with all sorts of hot glue runs on the bezel, lol, such a fail. If not tape, I typically recommend using metal wire to tie parts down since it won’t fail over time.

[@InuTaishoMaru]

This was all really informative and overall fun to watch, although the tech in me cringed when I saw how you solder. I mean that respectfully, that being said. please, if you're going to tin your wires, twist them first to make them more uniform. props for remembering rosin flux though, I see to many people who dont use things like rosin flux or even heat the heat shrink with a heat gun, so many people use a bic or torch lighter. Overall though great video, most people probably wont notice the soldering stuff but I figured id point that out.

I would like to mount a Profile Prism on the bottom of a Morimoto 4.0 projector, but am afraid the 9 leds on the board would be visible through the projector lens. One of the problems I see with demoneyes is the ability to be bright enough to see during the day.
