Thread: Dash Z Projector Headlight Review by Nawarkk

Alright, I'm done with this review until I get some quality HID's..

Ok Here we go:

Unboxing:



Bubble wrap... mmmm



Everything unraveled:


A caution sticker...


Ok, there are 4 (four) wires exposed and bare. These control the LED's and the halo's


As you can see, this wire leads to a circuit board, and then leads to the LED's. There is a white (positive) and a black (negative) wire.


Kinda blurry, but the other two wires are for the Halo's. Same thing, a white (positive) and a black (negative) wire.


Those wires can be run however you want. You can hook a switch to them, or to your low beams, or what I did that I think is pretty sweet is too hook them up to your orange turn signal lights. There are three wires that you splice to put the white and black wires in. I can check later if anyone is interested. The reason this is sa-weet is that the halo's and LED's will only come on when the turn signal bulb is on. It's also even sa-weeter when they alternate when you have the turn signal engaged. Like I said, if anyone is interested in this mod, I can check the wires for you, I just can't remember off the top of my head.

Old (yuck!)


This picture is to show you that you need to take those wires off of the back of the oem headlight, this will be used on your new projectors.


Here is what I am talking about. Also, you will not be using your orange turn signal bulb. It comes with a different style where you just plug their harness into where the original orange bulb was.


It's all pretty much plug and play from there. The only thing I would watch out for is connecting that blue plug from the OEM harness into the one from the projectors. The problem that I ran into is that the pins don't line up correctly and need to be moved in position. If your low beam and high beam don't work (like mine didn't) it's probably because your a loser like me and plugged it in and the pins aren't touching because they went into the negative space in the blue connector.

It will also come with a guide to show you what you need to do to make your turn signal bulbs work. There will be a new plug from the projectors that you just plug into the OEM harness and that's it. It will lead to a wire and that will be done.

Test Fitting and Light Operation:


Low Beam:


Quick cutoff picture:


For some reason they are not as bright right now as the picture shows...


Pretty bad ass if I do say so myself:

No snow in MI?

Yeah i know whatcha mean with the Halo's not all the bright
not sure why lol

wash that car! lol

stuntorider we have had no snow this winter but today we are getting 6 to 10 they say. So you can't put an hid in the dash z headlights? That sucks. I was going to get some but nevermind now.

I have HID's into mine (Dash Z Racing's new LED Projectors)

He said he can't afford them atm

Read my review lol i got H3 35W 6000K HID kit.

This, IMO, is a better review than any other's I've read so far. Seems like these capsules have the SAME amount of bounce as newer spyder projectors. Obviously the plastic is just as brittle because one of the other guys already broke a mounting tab.

Good writeup, nice to see some cutoff pics. Cutoff looks pretty crappy compared to the spyder capsules.

the cut off looks like the projectors have been color modded. when you color mod the spyders it brings the line out of focus.

a slight bounce when you are near someone is definitely not the same as the spyder bounce either. i have all the bounce mods done to mine and i can see them bounce a little bit without anyone in front of me.

the spyder lights also had that "Not for HID" on it. 50watt HIDs started to melt my lenses but the 35watts have been fine.

You guys need to stop jumping to conclusions with these, 2 people have them so far and think they are 10x better than the spyders! they projector could be a little better but the fact that they barely bounce is enough incentive for me to buy them and sell my spyders.

good job on the write up!!!

awesome write-up, I still don't know how i feel about them yet...

I like them, if I was not selling my GP I would be buying one a set of these! Good write up, glad someone was brave enough to give them a try.

nice write up bro, we about to get hit by our second blizzard -.-
