Yah I want to know as well, I need a used pair of headlights so I can do a How-To on installing Projectors. Are ya will to see them??
BTW good luck with the HID's I hear the glare is still horrible even if aimed down. Just watch the law enforcement, they might think you have your brights on.

Well..... they did other than my HL's were hightower'ized. But I now have 90mm highbeams added in along with some more mods
When people were shelling out too much $$$$ for this mod to be done for them, I did it myself for $125 I would not do this without cutting the lense off mainly because of all the debris that is made from the mods needed to allow the 90mm Hella units to be installed. Though, if one felt they could remove all of the plastic/dust particles and they weren't looking to paint their bezels....... it'd be worth attempting to avoid sealing issues some have encountered. Though I have only had one very minor leak that was easily fixed by double checking/touching up the black silicone used to seal them.
I decided against doing a how-to for this mod. Anyone that should be dabbeling in something like this should have a general idea on how, and if they needed help (there have been many who have asked me for a little info here and there...) they can ask me. I'm always willing to help out where I can....

The HIDs i am getting are from www.plasmagarage.com, same ones loco has. they are 398shipped. And the ebay auction list doesn't have the right size of lights listed right now.\ As for the old housings, i was thinking about sanding them down (slightly yellowed as of now) and then putting some protectant on it that my dad's work uses (can't buy it). And then install projectors in them and selling them. Not sure yet. How much you guys thinking you were gonna spend? I don't even know what a used set would go for.

Well, I think I'm gonna attempt this now, I will try to fit in Hella 90mm projectors ONLY to the low beams. I will NOT be cutting the headlights, as swazo said, there will be debri's but I'll manage somehow to get all that out. These are what I'm getting

Sorry Steve, I didnt mean to. Its just so freaking hard to find a cheap pair of headlights just to practice on. I went and found just 1 drivers side lamp at a junk yard that was COMPLETELY yellowed over (no transparency whatsoever) and they wanted $100 for it! It couldnt even be used!! Anyways...sorry. Ill shut up now. -Brian
