Im in Cali on leave, and found some projector headlights on craigslist, he wanted 150 when he started posting, and I got him to 50 and went and got them. Decent shape, better than what I expected for 50 bucks....he said I need HIDs for these, but there is a bulb in the projector? I have a HID kit in my car right now, and I am just confused. here are some pics. Hopefully this is a win and not a fail.






headlights look in good condition. the cutoff is horrible with those but hey for $50 it's not bad, i believe the bulb is a H4 so just buy H4 bulbs for your HIDs and you'll be good to go so you can ditch those low beam bulbs. the high beams are pnp and for the running lights they both hook up at the top, for the LEDs they are a 194 bulb and you can wire them to your parking lights if you want. overall you'll be fine with the headlights.

Ya im not complaining, my original headlights have fail vht on them, all scratched up, and they are condensation in them and need to be resealed.
I tried them out, and my halos are like a dark blue, so maybe mine were replaced too.

ill upload pics tonight. my install was a total fail, one of the halos doesnt work, and it worked when I bought them. oh well, it was the drivers high beam halo, so i just disconnected the passengers one. I was more ____ed about the MWR guy at the navy hobby shop I used who talked **** about my car and how worthless and ugly my car looks and why im using an impact gun. He got what he deserved when he tripped and ate **** over a jack stand. There was an old guy that told me that my car must make the ladies panties drop
overall im satisfied.

well if u know how to soder, they are fairly easy to fix, just need to buy the replacement LED's, which there are two of them. But you would also need to bake your headlight, for some people they don't like putting headlights inside ovens
