@ dinsays: Please post pics of your car & then we'll take it from there.

@ vicky.bhatnagar: My friend has type 2 M-800 & he has done some incredible things including buying cheap tail lamps & the converting them into LED lights. I can vouch that most car nerds follows his car for a awhile to get a viewof what's all that "LIGHT" about. I'll get some pics & post them here soon.

@mastermariner would like to see the led tail light pics of your friends car i am also planning to do something like this on my car also would request you to post some pics if possible

...and i want to repaint my car (include all new beedings)

A complete repaint of Maruti 800 costs around Rs.25,000. But this was the price for metallic shades when I inquired a few years ago. Please confirm the latest prices at the nearest authorized workshop and get the work done only from a reliable place.

My White Horse - Maruti 800

Hello Folks!!

Well it was in very good condition when i had bought it. lots of up gradations carried out with it some where with interest some not, few where very enthusiastic.

Meter started with 37,000 kms odd!!

There was nothing in the car. many things came up starting wid the console, fog lamps, led's, booster brake n stickering ooooo.

the first and foremost was "Blower" ufffff!!!! i feel better now!!

the best part was a small "table fan" before it hehehehe.

Till now i drove it around 15000 kms

a few long drives. missed few TAI meets.
few more up grations pending like A/C, crash guard, most imp "mags"

Osram Night Breakers do exactly what they say. Break the Night. Awesome Highs. im running 55/60. 90/100 would have required a Alt change. For 900 bucks. truly VFM.
The light is not yellow, neither HID white. just the right temperature.

 

[Varun560061]

Can we get these in 90/100 too ? Is this Osram night breakers available easily accessory shops ?

Upgraded my type 2 headlights to type 3 and upgraded bulbs to osram 90/100

Looking nice, did it require to cut the edges of the metal piece where the headlamps are to be fitted because, type 3 requires a bit more space than the type 2.
