honeycomb with 3rd eye?

Featured Replies

has anyone fitted the 3rd eye light setup with the honeycomb grill? how does it look, and does anyone have pictures

nice i think i like it. i wish i could find a third eye.... for my car that is.

i might have a lead on one of those 3rd eyes, i`ll let you know

Its not that hard of a mod, just time consuming. Basically, you just have to cut along the diagnols around the light cover and then trim the backside of the grill to clear the rest of the cover throughout its movement.

naw i dont need the grill but i need everything else. thanks man:)

You need the light. Unbolt the whole thing. The switch plus the plug and as much wiring as you can pull. The relay. Which is mounted on the passenger side strut tower and all the wiring from the relay to the light. You have to pull it from the harness. But it fairly easy to do. If any of the three things is missing it makes the install quite a bit more difficult. Also, the grill is needed for the pattern to cut out the other grill.

I was the first to fit a cyclops to a honeycomb grill.

Not to toot his own horn but, BEEP BEEP!! :lol: Just kidding Ken, we love you!

Someone has to do it!! :clap:

 

There is a wiring diagram for it in the manual I think as well.

You might want to take pictures of the setup and all the parts needed before un-installing them from the donor car, especially if you're sending those parts to someone else. It'll make it a lot easier to install on the next car. Also might be beneficial to someone that has found a donor, and wants to locate and remove the right bits (does that make sense?:lol: ).

 

By far the most time consuming part of removing the bits from the donor car is getting the wiring..try to get it all, from the switch inside, to the relay, and to the actual light.

 

Just my 2 bucks.

Just noticed this after looking through the first section of the real early Subys.

sorry to bring this back up, but could someone take a good snapshot of cuts you had to make on the grill, i just got my light in, but i hacked the one of my grills, and i dont want to screw up the other one.

how'd the installation go?

your grille adjusting will be a little different than Ken's as you have the big chrome badge on the front of your eye instead of the black cover..

I have the big chrome cover on my 3rd eye. Cutting the grill is fairly simple, but it takes some time to get right. Cut along the honeycomb pattern for the sides of the cover (Pretty easy). The hard part comes when you have to cut away at the back of the grill to clear the part of the cover that isn't seen. That can take a while but cut a little bit, hold it over the cover and see if it will fit flush against it's mounting brackets. If not, you need to trim more material. I can get you a few pics of mine, but not until this weekend.

installation was easy just need to wire it in. also i think i need to extend the wires so i can put the switch in my dash.

I Like how those Subies Look! ...

:)

Can you fit the "third eye" in a first gen brat?
