    Does anyone know if it's possible to fiberglass a aerox eagle eye headlight on my zip? I was thinking of cutting a hole and mounting it so I can do a bar conversion?

    Would probably have to cut come of your front end off to get them to fit...

    do you mean this light ?

    If you can cut bits away and fibreglass it to fit, then i dont see why it wouldnt fit and work mate :) as long as its wired up and sits nicely, will look quite good i reckon

    Ok I'm going to do it I will post some pictures and keep you updated. What about how high it has to be? And with led headlight do I need to do anything to the wiring? As its just a normal bulb ATM? My zip has on/off and high and low beam function ;)

    Im not sure about how high the lights have to be mate, but if your mounting it in the same place as the original one, there shouldnt be a problem... you might need some bullet connector type clips to hold the wires together , but i just soldered mine, seems easier and cheaper lol....

    Pretty sure these lights dont have high/low beams though... iv onl got the Audi style lights , the 2 circular ones...or both, no dip/high beam option, .....but in all fairness, with all 4 lights on, theyre pretty damn bright! lol

    Not 100% on that sorry mate...

    Ill be taking mine with that light in for an Mot, although u need high and low beams,,, i dont see why it should be a fail, the lights are brightttt and with just the bottom audi lights on its like a dipped beam anyway

    i dont think it will mate as the light is not e marked and you wount be able to have it at the angle that its supposed to be, best would be to have it done after mot or why not to put lights under your indicators like most people do on zips ?

    You would have to get the beam aiming right for it to pass a mot, Why most aftermarket lights dont pass as they aim sky high up, Mine defo wont pass, have to get a standard one for that :(
