Yea I see that. Kinda don't wanna pay over $200 for one headlight. But if I have to I guess I will. I'm sure I'll find some one in the mean time with a used one.

Any one have a used one they are selling??

Which yard? I don't mind removing the part myself from the car. The thing is I'm gonna joey mod them anyhow so I don't wanna pay brand new price for something I'm gonna rip open and customize.

I have bought the projectors and installed them. Old headlights are now up for sale.

White Custom Painted OEM Headlights with cleared out amber piece. No condensation. Very nice. Obviously these were opened and painted by myself so that is what they are going to look like. I've got nothing but compliments on these headlights from so many different people. Pics can be found at this link. http://www.yoursciontc.com/forums/in...0&#entry283023

The link that I'm selling these on can be found in my sig or by clicking on this link.

I went on a scavenger hunt. First I tried ebay and luckily there was one passenger side that wasn't too damaged (one broken clip). The guy was actually selling it as an earlier model 2004-2008 or something but the picture was of a projector headlight. I asked if I was getting the product in the picture and he said yea so I said sweet. I paid $65 shipped for that one.

Then I looked on forums and craigslist and ebay and could not find a driver's side headlight anywhere other than TRDsparks, which has the best price for the new lights. But I decided to check the junkyards and searched online and used that link in the middle of this thread somewhere. I called about 8 different places and ended up finding someone who had a driver's side for $125 shipped in perfect condition. So I scooped that up.

Then when I got both of them I ripped them open and painted them white to match the car and smoked the side reflector. All of this was to prevent getting pulled over for my blue HID lights and I figured projectors with a purple bulb like 12 k should be fine. They look really good and even kinda stockish so I should be good to get away from these Jersey pigs for a long time.
