What happens if my headlights are mint and i send them in, BUT the guy before me had cracked headlights. He gets the guy before his and I end up with his cracked ones. The guy after me gets my mint ones... I know where you are coming from, but I wouldnt want to pay a large amount of money and not get "my" original headlights back... Quick question: are you modifying the stock oe housing to make them clear/hid or are you retrofitting the hid projectors into the jdm housing? There will definitly not be any crap headlight housings being shipped out. You do have the option of sending your headlights in and getting your headlights back. The stock regular headlights are being modified. The price does not include an HID kit either. -------------------- 87 4runner DLX 22re, 5spd, 4.30gr, 4" lift, 30" tires, HID w/ Projectors, 6spkr + sub, custom exhaust, 94 celica leather seats, SR5 gauge cluster and clinometer. Future engine swap... possibly a 2jzge.

QUOTE(lagos @ Feb 24, 2007 - 7:40 PM) [snapback]529992[/snapback] as far as the 500price, do you mean low and high beams? because you can get real jdm low beams for about that same price. You have to consider that in Japan, they drive on the other side of the road.. so the projector cut off is higher on the passenger side of a RHD vehicle than on a LHD vehicle.. The beam pattern would look like this.. ----\____ In the states it should be like this ___/----- SO you don't blind oncoming traffic. Also, you couldn't just switch the projectors either.. (Example: w/ RHD) you couldn't just take passenger side and put it on driver side. It would make no difference. I've been thinking about including clear hi beam lenses as well. I'm still waiting on the spare set of low's I bought to arrive... so nothing new to report as of yet.

I don't think you realize how hard it is. I have custom projectors, and it's NOT a two day thing. You realize you have to build a housing around them? It's a pretty time consuming project... I know from experience. And I know that when all was said and done, my lights cost me more than a JDM SET did. Goodluck, but I don't see this going well -------------------- ![]() |
