I'll second that but they need to make them accept the H11 bulb so people who already got a set of HIDs don't need to buy new bulbs

Very confused why they made aftermarket headlights that require HID's?

waiting on you to fix these up J, but take your time ;D

Sorry Guys I needed to finish that Bentley first. Money first.

I have not even drove the xB in a week or so. I guess I could pull the bumper off and get it started tonight. LOL..

ok got the lights in tonight. The halos and LED portions of them work awesome. The fitment is really good as well. I did a test of trying to use my H11 bulbs in there tonight since I did not have a chance to pick up my H7 bulbs. The pattern is horrible. But was told from Cliff that it is most likely cause I am using a bulb that is not designed for that housing. I did find something wrong with the one of the sockets that I am calling the manufacture on in the morning. Pics coming soon.

Here is a couple pics of them. I did mention that the pattern was horrible, but Lot of that might be my fault. I will know tomorrow when I put the right size bulbs in the projectors.









And some of the bentley done. Metal mesh grille in the port opening so noone can reach through. Amp flushed into the back wall. Customer wanted as much of it to look like it was factory if you opened the trunk. The trunk peice already had that shape in it. I just made a new peice up there with my logo in plexi and then followed the shape down into the trunk.

Yes very true on the headlights. That is the good thing. It does not stand out like a wore thumb on there. I am usually not a big fan of the aftermarkt headlights because they look cheesy. These actually look really good and fit just as well.

Damn the light output on those headlights are HORRIBLE! Light scattered all over the place and way too much light above the cutoff (glare).

I take it you did not read the whole statement I said. I am using the wrong bulbs which I was told makes a big difference. So we will see when the right bulbs get put in there.

Anzo makes them.

I got the right bulbs, but got stuck tuning a car last night for 2.5 hours and did not put them in yet. I will tonight.
