That's a hard no from me. Less is more. I've done a LED Projector retrofit into my stock BA headlights but I've done that because when they are off it looks oem. The thing that always made Commodores look awful is the amount of trinkets they just double sided taped onto them, I feel this just does that same thing to the Falcon. Each to their own but certainly won't be adding these to my turbo.
They look like VE Commodore side indicators, and I know exactly what they look like since there are multiple VEs within my family. At first when I saw the thumbnail, I thought these didn't look right for a BA/BF Falcon, but now that I've watched the video they actually don't look as bad.
I agree, I think its awesome to have a company that continues to make after market parts. In saying that, I like the subtlety, streamline and minimal look of the stock indicators. I think these would have looked way better, without the black plastic guard thing that pokes out from the LED.
Great mod, but as a former VE Calais owner the new units look too VE Commodore for my taste. Love to see aftermarket support for these now classic cars.
I like the idea, the sequential looks really smooth and they look well made. I do agree with others that they border on being a bit too big with that black surround, I wonder if it's to hide additional circuitry or if they could make a borderless one. No black borders would be a winner 👌
Surely if it was to hide stuff they could make a version that them on a backplate i.e. put backplate in and connect socket to that, then put top lens on.
I love the install and the lights functions but I can not love the look as they give the appearance like they were pulled straight out of a ve commodore but I do think if the black honeycomb around the light could be removed and just the light itself was on the panel it would look nicer and flow better the B series falcons do flow extremely well but the black surround just ruins it. But this is just my veiw and it's not my car so realistically my opinion isn't worth jack so if you like them then your thoughts are the only one that matters. But yes it is good too see companies making new stuff for these gems
Look. Car mods are partly taste also. I love your videos and most of your mods so far. But this is by far the yukkiest mod to date. My opinion doesn't matter as long as you love them. Cheers mate!
I reckon they look good but just a bit too big, Im playing with the idea of putting indicators in my side mirrors and bogging up the hole on the guard for a cleaner look....
Its a no from me. Too big and bulky... They should have made something similar to the ford focus ones that work in the fgs. But the same shape the original ba/bf. Missed opportunity.
I think they look to much like the side of a Holden commodore guard. I have made my own LED side indicators using the stock one and fitting a progressive LED inside of it and then tinting them black.
I think the design itself works well with the car but the actual product is a bit on the chunky side. On the flip side it’s neat that no bodywork mods have to be made to accommodate them.
if you love them then great, personally its looking more and more like a p-plater car, halo's, aftermarket indiactors, only need eye lids and spray your wheels black and your finished haha, good thing is that these type of mods are easy removable when you change your mind. no harm is done
It is a divisive look. To say the least it does stand out and it will attract attention on the road to your intention to turn, so it’s very good in performing its intended function. I think you should have shown how and whether it messes with the opening of the front door and what sort of clearance you have. I would want at least a 5mm clearance in case the door gets dented for whatever reason and the indicator interferes with its opening.
They look great & look the business! I wish they had them for the Commodores of the era. I went the expensive way & got the front 1/4 panels from a late VZ SS which needed the flutes & the indicators. Painted the panels & installed the indicators.
What a cool product at a great price as well! For me it's not my taste but id love to put them onto a flogged out XT with knackered paint just to run home the whole "lipstick on a pig" aesthetic 😂
I like them but agree that it's a matter of personal taste... Either way, it's fantastic that someone is catering for customising Aussie built cars as it's a small market compared to JDM, Euro and US cars!!!👌 I'd support them wherever and whenever I can!👍
When I saw the Thumbnail it looked liked you just randomly put VE Commodore side indicators on the falcon until you gave the description about them being aftermarket parts for that car.
Stock side indicators on a ba/bf for me. That aftermarket side indicator just doesn’t work on that generation car. On a VE ? Yes because it was new at the time and it worked. Just doesn’t have that ford dna styling to warrant a look in. Sorry. That’s a NO
I don’t rate these at all. They look very tacky and cheap. It just doesn’t suit the BA look. It makes your car look like your going for the Super Cheap Auto catalogue look that P platers love to make their VT commo look sick. I rate the Halo lamps though as it retains the factory look.
It's great that they're doing stuff for our cars but those are way too VE-looking. And personally I can't stand sequential indicators in any setting. But at least there's a mode that just has a solid flash lol
I have ordered a set from another make and model of car and I’ll hopefully be able to have them fit and they are the same shape as fords. If it works out and I have no issues I’ll leave all the information they are also from ozparts as well
Hmmm personally not a fan but it good the aftermarket offers people the choice - one of the few cases where factory looks more understated the size is a bit big for me
Saw u driving around a while ago anyway my poor au did a bhg/warped head she'll be off the road for a while back to the fg do you reckon those indicators will fit the au?
