After many years of not making a single set, I decided to build me a set.

So here they are. More pics to come, as well as a video.

EDIT: VIDEO ADDED

The skinny:

Low Beam: Honda S2000 Projectors, w/a modified cutoff shield to get crisper cut-off and more blue/purple color.
High Beam: Hella 90mm Low Beam projector, modified to be used as High Beam.
HID System: Philips/Hella Ballasts, w/Osram Cool Blue 5000k bulbs.
Turn Signal: Amber LED Strip, 15 times as bright as incadescent bulbs.
Position Light: Amber LED, 8 times as bright as incadescent bulbs.
Accent light: Cool White LED, 5000k
DRL: Cool White LED, 4300K

Beam pattern is fully adjustable, up and down, and left to right.

So there you have it. And I again have the most advanced headlights fitted onto a Contour. ;)

Total cost of project: ~$1000 (I reused my Ballasts and bulbs. With those included, $1500)
 
DAMN IT!


Makes me want a SVT :drool:



Nice job man ;)


I don't think people quite understand what you are really showing them. Get them lit up asap.
 
It looks like this Rex:

love it, love it, love it

but you guys are crazy with these prices. No one should be paying more than $50 for HID bulbs + ballasts w/ lifetime warranty since 2011

Been extremely busy this week, have 6 trials!! More pics should be up tomorrow ... Installed and rubning. Plus will post a YouTube vid also. These things are bright!!!!
 
I like that no one noticed the upper and lower LED runner lights :drool:. They will •••• when they see them lit up! :laugh:
 
Looks dang good Milan. I too saw them on the facebook page. Some day when I'm finished with everything else I'll finally get around to building mine. I think I made a post when I first had everything back in like 2007 lol.
