i was really thinking of putting some large hellas, mayb 2 smaller ones on the outside and 2 large ones in the middle of the lower grill on the front of my car... has anyone ever considered this or thought of this...?

anyways, i think it would look really good, to have that area filled w/ lights...

anyone have links for hellas or a hella-like light that isnt so expensive??

i was looking for a light shop, but couldnt find one, anyone know how to do any of thes things?

 

I thought it might be Hella-Cool also...

Sorry, bad joke...

But after seeing all the classics with the giant bank of add-on lights, I've started considering doing this to my MINI... it's a down the road project, but it should turn out to be very classic looking...

Is it posible to put toooo many lights on a MINI??? i dont think so!!! ahhahahaa

I agree, the bumper/lower grill placement is superior for large/four light configurations. Hella and PIAA are my two lights of choice, but I still haven't brought myself to buy and mount such a system yet. The uppergrill mounting is too lightweight for a bar and four lights, resulting in too much vibration of the lights while in use. I'd like to see a fiberglass shell for the hood similar to what PIAA has done in classic Minis, available for the new MINI. Also has anyone gone the Monte Carlo route and placed a single spotlight on the roof?

 

I added 4 lights a few weeks ago, after seeing the same set up growing up so i put them on mine .
It was way easy to do..even for me.Very secure no vibrate shake with the light.
Makes her stand out, and the drive home now is the high 'light' of my day....sorry could not resist.
Check out my sig belowand the larger pictures are in the member mini gallery.

went to an offroad store and they have cat lights for only 25 dollars a piece, but then the guy said he wont mount them and thinks it can be a lot of trouble to do.... how would i mount these down there?? also, i would have to do the wiring and stuff.

 

OK send a PM to chegamais
he did this to his car here in México and he did a great work.
Here is a Picture.

I had them sent from Minisport in england, With shipping it was around 400dollars i got them in 3 days..yep three days. It took me around 2-3 hours to fit. The bracket mounts to the bumber mounting so they are very secure.
When you look at the picture on th eweb site they show a different configuration. But i like mine better.

still no response from him...

 

I tried to get more pictures on this for a while - no response at all.
I would like the rally lights on my car, but not on the hood. I know, lovering them takes away a lot of light, but it is only way I will ever do it. Just need more pictures how to attach them - lazy to invent it on my own.
So thanks fo starting this forum

There was a recent thread on fog lights that mentioned state rules about having too many lights. I can't find it right now but you may want to look into this before you get too crazy.
