Hi brothers,do any of the bro or sis here send in their car in for inspection with angeleyes headlamp n tinted signal lamp?Pls advise or share because my car is due for inspection by end july. :smile:
-
Kenny, any lamp with tinted different color that LTA allowed is illegal. You better take it off before Inspection.
-
Ok thxs,mayb will remove the headlamp but tail lamp will remain cos Ryan pass his inspection with that clear tail lamp.;-)
-
I think Angel Eye also allowed. As long as no HID kit attached. :D
-
I dont believe kenny doesn't know other alt way to go thru inspection...

Hi,
Taken from:
http://www.onemotoring.com.sg/publish/onemotoring/en/lta_information_guidelines/modifications_and_vehoffences/modification_guide/modification_not_allowed.html#MainPar_0036
Vehicles should only be fitted with factory fitted HID lamps as they are designed to meet internationally recognised standards. Aftermarket HID lamp kits retrofitted into existing headlamps may cause unwanted glare when used. Therefore, installation of these kits are not allowed.
With effect from 1 January 2010, LTA will require all newly registered vehicles, except motorcycles, fitted with HID headlamps to be equipped with an auto-levelling feature.
All vehicle lamps must meet internationally recognised standards. Tinting or masking of these lamps is not allowed as it may adversely affect their performance.

100% agree. But Angel Eye is not HID lamps leh. So, can use back normal halogen bulb for your Angel Eye then pass inspection?
-
May i propose since Bro #nakshire is selling HID at the forum :devil2:, how about engaging his exclusive service to remove & assembly back the HID light prior to before & after LTA inspection at a cost deem reasonable for both parties? ;D
-
Removing of hid n replacing back the normal halogen bulb is small job for me,what i mean is the aftermarket headlamp which is angeleyes with projector ball...Wonder can pass anot if I just change back to halogen without changing the headlamp.
NSMAN:Now reli very strict after the case on bride of inspection centre inspector la,if not i won't have to go through some much hassle. :D

Kenny, the projector at the angeleye is not design for HID. It still using H7 halogen bulb, I'm very sure. They mention very clearly regarding install a "aftermarket HID lamp" is not allowed if it doesn't meet the "Internationally recognised standards". If you take out your HID and put back halogen bulb, your angeleyes is ONLY an "aftermarket headlamp".. As I know, some cars original come with projector lens but not HID lor. Cheers

Think even aftermarket headlamp is not approved ESP if it black base. :(

Nissan NV200 and mostly Volkswagen cars are using black-based headlamp. :devil2:
Tell inspectors that you make your housing to black-based is to reduce the glare lor. :D
If aftermarket headlamp can not pass the inspection, the aftermarket taillamp also can not pass inspection liao... :D
p/s: If i am not mistaken, the glass of your angeleyes is printed with SAE(http://www.sae.org/ (http://www.sae.org/)) symbols.

seems like you know alot hor hw, have you passed your inspection with ur angeleyes headlamp?

Bro, I just passed my inspection last May. I don't have angeleyes for inspection. :bleh:
Btw, I just wonder why aftermarket taillamp can passed but not the angeleyes which without HID lor. :D
-
Think is due to the headlight angel cos the lamp we bring in is from taiwan n they belong to left hand drive n therefore will shine against driver that is opposite us.As for tail lamp is bro kyorei said he passed his inspection with that tail lamp lor.

I start wondering either you check the light pattern of your angeleyes properly or not. It will not glare/shine against driver that is opposite us lor. Tonight, find a flat wall in the MSCP, open your low beam (as Inspection no checking on high beam and fog light), see the like pattern of your angeleyes.
you suppose to see your angeleyes low beam light pattern is like below:
\__\__ <-- this glare people on your left hand side
if you want to shine people from opposite..i think you need to mode the cut off point like this
__/__/ <-- this glare people on your right hand side
Unless you aim your headlight to shoot the bird on tree...then use stock headlamp also will fail inspection. :)
-
alamak bros, now i practicum leh... no time to do HID things liao... ask ryan help out with this, he is the pro man...

Bro, you think you can see the face of opposite driver meh? If so, your car 100% is glaring others. LOL
For LHD cars, the low beams dip down on the driver's side, so that you don't blind oncoming cars. The higher passenger side allows you to better view roadsigns and pedestrians, etc. on that side. It is the opposite on cars with RHD. so, you think your angeleyes is for LHD or RHD?
-
But we keeps glaring at passengers waiting at busstop leh...

You can put a LED panel written in "Don't look at here" (prefer with light) on the windscreen of your passenger side facing those passengers waiting ta busstop... :devil2:

Bumper also take out 1 screw from each side... but if you got tool to open the headlight's nut that on the bumper side, you can forget about to take out bumper. 30 - 60 mins job to get them swapped.
-
what kind of tool? any special?

Actually i do not understand y pple like to change their lamps to glare others
I share an experience once i was trying to make a u turn at a busy junction
As i was trying to make that turn a car from the rear with aft market hid lights came up the glare i had from the mirror was so strong that it temporary blinded me n my car was u turning halfway with on coming traffic n i had to stop as i was stunned by the temporary blindness
So if u think changing such lamps for the pure ego n thinking it was fun glaring others stop n think about the trouble u can cost not to mention the possibility of lives lost
-
Guys mai :Offtopic: lei...Thxs

So, bro Kenny, you passed your inspection?

They think they can act cool to glare other road users. But are actually coward as they dare not to go to the inspection centre without removing it.
Hope they get blind by other hid lights, and they will curse and swear. So inconsiderate and naive.

Bro kenny, check this.
Headlight Test: Determines proper alignment and focus of headlamps
The headlight aimer is used to measure the luminous intensity and the horizontal and vertical aim of each headlamp at high beam..
