here is from Clear corners site:
- Each headlamp utilizes 36 wide-angle white high-intensity LEDs for the parking lamp and are visible from a multitude of angles.
- Ultra low-profile LED rings are discrete and do not interfere with light optics.
- Unlike lower quality Cold-Cathode Fluorescent (CCFL) rings, LED technology does not require bulky voltage inverters and will continue to operate at temperatures under 50° F.
- Signal bulbs are upgraded with dual LED signal arrays, offering better visibility & increased safety.
- Amber signal lenses are replaced and upgraded with more efficient clear lenses.
- Low-beam & high-beam bulbs are upgraded with HIR-spec Ultra-Premium high output bulbs.
- Lamps come with 1-year defect-free warranty.
When complete, headlamps are carefully re-assembled and re-sealed with factory sealant. All connections are soldered and shrink tubed for maximum reliability. Lamps are tested and gauranteed to ensure that there are no problems with water leakage.
Those headlight are over $1500 and take 4-8 weeks to have customized

I would rather pay my mortgage...
The headlights are cool, but better double check with your insurance company to see if they will be covered when you get in a front end colission....

no im not buying them, i wanna customize mine to look like that, i just want to know which LEDs they used lol, because i rather use LEDs than CCFL like i am now, and what kind of leds do they have in the eyelids, because that looks unbelievable
I gave up on clear corners. I tried everything. I got some crappy ones which were cut by hand and superglued in place, but they turned yellow and sucked. I tried getting companies to custom make a set. I tried making a silicone mold and creating a set using clear resin. Nothing really worked in the end, so I just plain gave up.
I had that plan too. I was gonna sell a bunch of them to the community because I know there is a demand. After several attempts, my silicone mold finally came out absolutely perfect. But then I couldn't find a way to get the resin to set without having bubbles inside. The finished product came out okay, but it was filled with tiny bubbles which upset the direction of light travel through the piece. I understand you need to use a vacuum to get a bubble-free cast. I didn't want to invest any more money though.

why is that guy charging 1500 for them?
Leds costed him about 30 bucks, pcb board for 5 bucks, 18ga wires for 5 bucks, and the painting looks cheap and he might've added alot of gloss to have the shiney finish to it. A voltage regulator + a pulse regulator .
Oh yeah, leds are superflux LEDs as i previously stated
