              • Isn’t anyone going to bring up the fact that twin round headlights look fucking garbage? Why does everyone wank themselves senseless trying to make their van like a chavved up Peugeot 205 out of Max Power magazine?

                Dogshit.

                  • Nail on the head there Tommy. Burks headlight to me as popular as pork rolls at a synagogue. Shit idea from the start.

                    • Arguably some of the "best" vans and "almost valuable" vans were fitted with this 90's upgrade? Each to their own, time and place.

                      Turks van looked great imo.... there's other examples too!

                      The Projekt Zwo headlights were rubbish in terms of function and build quality . They jumped on the German scene dream and created an exclusivity that added value to what is actually quite a bag of quad shite. The upgraded versions make a better albeit decades later job in quality and retro styling.

                      Best look imo is oem with clear indicators with a white side light / blinking orange LED install. The wider white light creates (using the indicators area) a Marvels Iron Man look. Suits the van and stays oem.

                      The pic was easy to find as its my phones background image!

                        That's what mine are. First using switch back LED bulbs but they weren't bright enough as indicators so I made my own.
                        Also I wanted a DRL as a bar inside the lens so remade it with a white COB strip. I also run an amber bulb in there to make the indicator as bright as it can be.

                        Finally I made a controller so the white LED DRL dims when the head lights are on and it turns off the DRL whilst the indicator is flashing.

                            I haven't got a build thread I'm afraid.
                            I have some other pics but not many as I remade those lights so many times the design kept changing.
