Another Blinder M45 placement question (2005 chrysler crossfire)

[nox1s]

Hey, going to be receiving / installing my M45's this weds.. need professional help on optimal placement! I will probably VEIL my headlights but that will be in a little bit and not immediately. My car seems like a PITA, the grill doesn't sit flat and the lower grills aren't open so i'd have to dremel **** out (which I REALLY don't want to do..)

Center upper grill for 2 heads make sure the sensors are on the outside

The other 2 heads on either side of the plate sensors out

X2, If your going for front AND rear coverage with the M45...



FRONT:
Id go up 1 slot in the grill and out one spot (towards each HL from the 2nd picture above).


REAR:
Id go as far out as possible on each side; like under the " C R" and "R E" in "CROSSFIRE".



As Rob said above make sure [for all heads] the three (3) sensors are OUT (check this with the video cam in your cell-phone or I believe night-shot for Sony camera does this as well.)

Mount where the yellow is

^^^^

Exactly the Blinder heads are much longer then those yellow boxes, by a good inch id guess.

thanks a lot everyone for your help.. will be installing soon so i'll post pictures!

i've read that the blinders come with their own little bubble levels, is this true?

Yes, they have their own little spirit levels that come with them... and then fit perfectly into the front holes for easy checking of how level the units are.

PS: Just make sure the ground beneath the car is level!!!


The main issue I have with the level process is you will find the little tabs that are inserted into the holes of the blinder after you have it leveled are a PITA to get out if you push them in flush to the front (which you should do).

another dumb question.. for mounting.. would 3m industrial permanent molding tape be adequate for holding these... or do i really need to drill and make brackets?

3M tape will be fine.

Permanent tape will work fine, as long as you can keep the sensors perfectly straight and level using it.
