these style headlights, where do I get them, how do I make them, whatever it takes I want them.



Searching Quads in pics and videos will probably provide better results then Morettes. Searching SW will provide *some* helpful info if you look for my posts. Dion, IIRC, is in CA, Swazo is in SW as well.

Milan built the ones in the pic that is posted. Others have built their own sets for their 98+ cars. Dion and Swazo come to mind right off hand. Both took different routes to come up with a comparable product.

Coming from one who has built his own (pre-98), study up on what you are going to be doing. It seems like a daunting job when you first start, but if you learn from others mistakes and take your time, the results can be quite rewarding. When assembling them, you must be very exacting in your measurements. Leaking problems with the 98+ style lamps can happen, 1º of rotation off when the housings are placed will provide a great impact on your down the road pattern as well.

Talk to the others if you are going to try to build some. Also check out http://faq.auto.light.tripod.com/. There are plenty of people there with knowledge from many different types of cars, all are quite helpful. You can pick up the lamps assemblies from Susquehanna MotorSports, P.U.M.A. or eBay (serch Hella 90mm). I have delt with both Susquehanna and PUMA, both are quite helpful and the prices are reasonable.

Dont expect this project to be inexpensive. If you use your housings, you are still looking at over $200 in new lamp assemblies to put into them, not counting tools, adhesives, paints, sealants, etc. The project can get even more expensive if you add matching foglamps, xenon, etc. My project, with the matching foglamps, xenon, LEDs, etc, is approaching $1000 now and I am not finished. I still need some more body work, paint, a second xenon setup, nickel plating and the list goes on.

I believe Milan sold his setups with lowbeam only xenon for around $1000-1200. Someone will correct me if I am mistaken.
