G'day
Just let everyone know that i got a set of KS verada lights today they cost me $50 each (BARGIN). i got them from "just japanese parts plus (http://www.justjap.com.au)". if you give them a ring speak to brendon.
and i also put on a font bar from a diamonte. it has built in driving lights too. looks nice but i still have to get it painted to the same colour as my car.
i will have pics up soon
cheers

speaking of a new frontend, I have a new frontend as well, as of a week ago. Those who went on the NSW cruise would have saw it. Unfortunately I havn't had time to post anything up yet.
As for Snagma, I had the same $50/light deal as well, thanks to a particular MOGWA member for finding them!

Damn I want some, $100 for a set is good value for money. It doesn't look like they have anymore though from looking at their site. :cry:

So what did the front bar cost you?? When i crashed my car a few months back i rang up about that bar and they said they didn't have it. If they have a few i might get 1 as well.

Dont quote me on this but I didnt think that the diamante front bar could fit on magna. Something about a different assembly that the bar has to be mounted to? If you have any info about that, that would be helpful cause i am interested in getting a diamante/verada front bar.

Well done Snagma, (Go the Wagons!).
Post some pics when the front is done.
Are the Headlights from an aussie Verada or a Diamante ?
I was once told that one of them (Verada or Diamante) have 'Stanley 7076' printed on them?
Anyone out there with either a Diamante conversion or an Aussie Verada that can let me know ?
Also, does anyone know if the Diamante headlights are the same (bulbs/brightness) as the aussie Verada's ?

The pic above on the silver Verada has all Diamante front headlight and bar conversion, but SNAGMA is using VERADA Parabolics on his car.. it is deffinately gonna look good
The Diamante Headlights say "STANLEY 001-4492"
I couldnt find any different in the brightness, i know that the high beams use a differnt bulb compares to the AUST spec Verada and Magna's, and that the Diamante headlights have a parker in/under the normal headlight bulb and another in/under the high beam bulb, while the normal Parabolic ones only had it in/under the noirmal headlight bulb....

im surprised kb hadnt picked up on this before me. the verada lights you guys are speaking of that were purchased for 50bucks are not parabolics! they just have a circular lense set up to make them look like they are. and the one you buy from ozeparts are parabolics and they are not recond they are brand new genuine mitsu parts at 480 a pop (which i now see they dont have). anyway just be careful of what your buying because you may be dissapointed once you do.

The lights we were talkin about above were the Diamante ones, but the lights that SNAGMA bought for $50 were infact the KS Verada lights

Yeah the $50 ones are not Diamante lights, they are just KS Verada lights. They are in fact Stanley 7078's.

damn now im confused!!! those lights are the expensive ones! you say you got them for 50bucks each?? i was expecting to see the ones that came out on the earlier veradas that are just the standard lenses with that circular surround to make them look like the parabolics. im still not sure if those are parabolics but they are definately an upgrade from standard and a re worth way more than 50 bucks! very nice find snagma, well done.
Snagma

I think the lights came out of a 95 KS verada. how can i tell if they are parabolics??
Mikey
26-05-2004, 07:28 AM
Try 2 find a KS Verada and see the lights on that :P they should be the same, if u cant then i will be back that way soon, i will tell ya

They are definitely multiparabolics. The lens are completely clear and doesnt have the grooves on them. With the Stanley model number written on the lens also shows it is a geniune part. Mind you it isn't new, its from a wrecked KS, but the ones I got are in emaculate condition! There are no rock chips or mist inside the lens at all!
I'll try and grab a close up pic of the lights.
