Is anyone interested in having me do my patented "Hightower Headlight Mod" to their headlights? I don't bake them, nor do I paint over the blinker reflecting cup. I can also leave out the orange reflector if you want.
Price is $160 for flat black and shipping back to you. If you want colors other than flat black, it would be $20 more.
Here is the old picture of Timmay's ride that I did way back in the day.
Anyone interested?

You should know by now that this should be in Group Buy.
i would be but it would be a few weeks before i had the money together.
so 160 to send you the lights and paint and send them back-- i dont know, i do really want to do this to mine, but don't have the balls to try it-- and my damn lenses are fogged so it would look like crap
To be honest i dont think they look that great.
I'll send you mine, if you wetsand em inside and out
(only cuz I want the inside haze cleaned by a *professional*)
I think they look perfect on the Contour
but I've heard concerns about night visibility from those who had it done previously.
If I had an SVT, I'd consider it if you didn't keep changing your handle every three days.
i'd probably do it if you'd replace my hazey lenses
Maybe it's just me, but $160 seems a little steep.
And lenses aren't that hard to wet sand and polish. If you want it done for a reasonable price, send me a PM.
they do look nice on a black. they would probally look good on the cars with the darker colors and silver. or to make a svt tour look better. my s.e. would probally look ricey wiht those lights. i would probally be down for removal of the orange thing. one thing i would like is a center reflector that lights up like on the Mark VIII
I'm not going to wet-sand anything.
It doesn't affect the light pattern one bit.
If you think ~$140 and ~$20 shipping is too steep, you might not understand what it takes to do these (4-5 hours a pair). It does take me a few hours to open these things up and paint them.
I DO NOT BAKE THEM!
And, this shouldn't be in a group buy since a group buying these things is not going to bring the price down. Thanks though.
i think they look good. just wouldnt on my car. i would rather put the money towards a polly roll resistor or maintenance on my car.
I'd love to have this done but would like to see pictures first.
Does anyone have pictures of their silver SVT/non-SVT with this mod done?
Please PM me the pictures as I'd like to keep this thread clean. **Only silver cars with this done please**
TIA!
CH's quality is a given, no need to argue about that. I got 2 questions though:
a) the time frame once u get 'em and the money
b) need better pix
F'in tool.
ricky, i think you will have to pay this "hightower" chap royalties for the use of his name. you should call them "bobbied" lights.
i got an idea how about a grill with projectors fitted into them to use as auxhilary lights for those real dark roads.
So does anyone else want these? It will be the last time I do these
F0r3v@R!
if the morettes werent getting done soon i would be on these like stink on poop. wait, i thought you were making me a pair anyway ricky.
If my lenses weren't hazzed beyond recognition, I'd be in on this. Maybe after today I can if I find a good set of lights at the junkyard.
Jeez, I can't believe some of the responses I'm seeing. God, people, why do you think they call them Hightower lights? They're named after the guy who did them first!!! "Seems alittle steep, better be lined with gold, wet sand them for me", Jesus, I don't believe this. I approached Chris about doing this a year or so ago and he said no cause he didn't have the time to get involved with it. If mine weren't already done by that banned butthead in California, I'd be on this in a second. If you want them done, let him know. Otherwise, don't post. Asking for a picture is reasonable, questioning his quality isn't.
i agree-- i'm with the guy before you though-- my lenses are just too hazed and it's not worth it, i'm to picky to stare at hazed lenses and get my heads hightowered
---
if i find something to do about the lenses, i'd be all over this
well i knew you could clean them and wax and polish and stuff-- but i thought that only lasted about two weeks? i could have swore someone wrote that in a thread
You have a PM Mr. Hightower.
Not wanting to bug you but did you get my PM Chris?
I have some trouble with people not receiving my PM's so I just thought I'd check.
