i see and hear that moisture develops in the head lamp housin area, is a black housin one nice on a flint mica one any one

 

moisture and condensation will happen to any set of headlights that aren't sealed well, and i think these don't come sealed very well from factory. you can just reseal them when you get them if you'd like.

 

Yes they are DOT approved, it says right on the headlight housing. I'm not sure what bulbs they take but they come with bulbs so you shouldn't have to buy any to begin with. Visibility is a 1 up for the headlights and twice as nice with the brights on. Except that they shine a little low (this is exaggerated in the picture because my driveway faces down toward my garage) so when you go down hill and turn you need brights. And yes I like them a lot and would buy em again if I had to.

How can you go about resealing them so as to prevent moisture? I lived in miami for a year too, assuming your avatar speaks to your hometown

 

mehhhh...tooo much chrome, you shuold paint match em or something

 

No.

 

hahah alright nevermind then

 

just take the headlights off and put a layer of clear silicone all around the housing.

 

i bought the same exact ones about 4 months ago and they were working fine but now one of the small LED's in the corner on the right headlight has gone out and the ring around the high beam. Oh and just to let anyone who wants to know the bulbs used for the projector and high beams are the same and they are H1 bulbs.

 

^ that`sux, yeah i had mine about a year now i have no real problem other than the darn rings are really light, and moisture is a big issue, i resealed mine and no its fine. i used my stock bulbs on them and they look kinda ricer lol. thinking bout getting silverstars at least....

im currently working on my turn signals, trying to get clear leds for them does anyonw knw where i can get those ?

I'm not sure what you mean by cutoff mod, unless you're talking about smoking the eyelids on the headlight, which would look stupid with chrome.

I decided that I'm not going for a batmobile-racer style car, more of a classy black on chrome theme that you would see on an Audi A8. Afterall, you gotta admit this car is slow as all hell. >_<

tcs are only slow ___ hell until you start modding them. there a good platform to work with and if you dont spend youre money on pointless stuff youre car might be a little quicker.

 

you need gas =P

 

my tC isn't slow

my tC has $$$ under the CF hood tho.

 

Those are some good looking lights but I'd have to bake them and paint all that unnecessary chrome inside the housing...I'm not some for 'bling bling' so to speak.

 

they have them in black also but theres alot more other projectors out there. i switched back to my OEM lights because i wasnt feeling it either after a while

 

way to bring back a dead thread... and those lights are nasty.

 

yeah WTF you putting chrome on the tC for, the least you could of did was get the black housing instead.

 

you can do whatever you want to you car as long as you like it

 

thos are niceee

 

wow yes dead thread.

i have since lost affinity for anything chrome and have switched back to oem housings with tinted sidemarkers. I have a set of spec headlights lying around too, but my oven is broken and I havent gotten a chance to bust into them and tint and paint and whatnot.


if anyone wants those old headlights ill sell em for like 30 bucks :O they were nasty.



This is what it looks like now. Better? I think so.
