i've notice the close up pic of the headlights, the projector lens seems to be clear. is it clear or is it like the stock having a golf ball look to it?
it'll be great if you post a 3/4 front showing the whole car.
Fitment is good, mear perffect.Projectors are the same the only thing that change is the bulb inside of it.Ill see if i could take better pic tomorrow.
thanx

No no dude, they come with there own.You just plug the cables, the only light that you get to use is the side marker.Low beam light is way smaller than the regular one.Its a tiny light bulb.Its bright all hell though.

I think those headlights have potential, they may be a good headlight for a retrofit and could have more space in them then our OEM's.

Open those up, smoke the LED with laminex, paint all chrome parts black with an HID retrofit, ditch the angel eye and BAM you would have a pretty nice headlight.

You got to connect the LED and halo to the side marker.(yellow bulbs) I had the same problem with the low bean.I just cut the wires and eliminated the plug.I think the plug are kind of crappy but you can still make them work.High bean wasn't no problem.If you need any more help or not sure what exacly im talking about then let me know ill take some pic or something to help you out.

I think the angel eye its what makes it look sick.But i agree i think you can work with this and do just about anything.

I have been on the fence of buying them. First off, I want the halo, second the oem highs are too low aimed, I want to raise them, but no adjustment for just that, so was looking at these to get higher highs.

So, the leds are white vs blue? I had been talking to 1fastscion, he said they are blue as well as the angel eye and I could get blue lenses or clear lenses for the projectors.
