Morning All,

I have a 2006 HST supercharged RRS. The headlights seemed dim, and the general style of the grill and headlights looked aged, so I have carried out some modifications inspired by this forum.


- Upgraded the front grill with the AB upgrade from powerfuluk.
- Installed LED DRLs, and sprayed the insides black from this thread http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic29640.html
- Installed high power LED high beam as per this thread -[url] http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic46312.html[/url]
- Installed Osram Xenarc Nightbreakers.
- Sanded and polished the headlight covers.

Broke these clips when I took the old grill off, so had to order some more:


All back together again:



This mod has made a huge difference to the looks of the car! The headlights are so much brighter, no longer a dim pinkish colour. The LED high beams are unreal, they are infinitely brighter. The look on peoples faces when you flash them to go is funny, they're like what the **** are those lights.

All in all took me about 2 months to complete all the work, as my wife had our first baby halfway through!

Hope you enjoy the piccies!! 2006 Java Black HST Supercharged

Looks awesome

Do you have any info on the DRL's? Any links to the ones you bought ect? How easy/difficult were they install and wire up?
Also don't suppose you have a picture of them on?

Thanks in advance

Oooooo....looks loads better. I`m leaning towards an HST myself.....prefer the different look

Go For it! They're a bit rarer, and with the upgrades i've just done, they can look like a brand new car! 2006 Java Black HST Supercharged

You'll want to get the lenses re-laquered, when you've sanded them you will have removed the existing coating. Without the laquer they will sun bleach in no time..
