Cool Door projector lights

Aloha Jagsters!
Ta-Da projector lights! I haven't decided if they are too much, but they look pretty cool. To increase sharpness I put a small strip of black duct tape on the bottom of the red door entry light.

Nice.
You've got the 'leaper' design. There are also 'growler' puddle lamps as well.

Same design I went with. One of the easiest mods I've ever done to a car, and they look very cool at night. A real eye catcher. Congrats!

Good question. I looked at my eBay purchase history, and it shows the item as no longer available from the seller (Custom-Sign). I didn't search their eBay store extensively, but here's a link to their store.

This link is probably what you already have: Leaper Step Lights

Hope that helps...

Like LED DRL's, ghost shadows are a personal taste issue. I like'em! I put them on my XK and think they look great!

I wish I'd found the set with "Jaguar" in red but they will do.

After installation I found the puddles projected an annoying slash across the image so I put a piece of black tape inside the lens to block it out. I also changed to an LED bulb in the puddle light to reduce heat build up and possible distortion of the black tape. Now it looks less like an add on.



Before




Taped or painted clear lens




After
