    Custom HID projector headlights - $350 + shipping

    Price reduced to $350 + shipping

    Okay guys, I spent a ton of hours on this project; I loved driving at night with these bad boys. My only complaint is that I didn't have enough opportunity to drive back roads where I could really enjoy quad high-beams.

    These are eBay housings with the crap Chinese projectors replaced with tuned RX350s, and 65W Osram Rallye bulbs in the HB spot.

    Currently - one of the AEs is burned out; I have a spare I'll swap in at the buyer's request. (Only reason I won't do it pre-emptively is because the buyer may want to swap in brighter rings altogether.)

    For this price you get the housings with RX350 projectors, Morimoto D2S bulbs, AEs, and wiring harnesses. If you need ballasts/ignitors let me know. Hit me up with any questions.







    This pic shows both the cutoff and the (sad) effect that the plastic housing lens has on the otherwise crisp cutoff.








    How the low beams look. The PS projector is slightly cocked; not as bad as in this pic, but it's not perfect... I just don't have a better shot. It's only noticeable when you're up on a wall though, certainly not on the road.






    Quad HBs:




    All four HBs lights blazing.







    LBs only, above the cutoff:





    In a parking lot. You need this kind of illumination in your life.








    A few of the work-in-progress shots:

    Minor housing annoyance, only two of the four bolt holes lined up. Not sure if this is a model-year thing or what, but it didn't impact the snugness of mount at all.









    RX350s getting custom brackets:







    Mounting the AEs:





    Test-fitting for aim on the car:





    Putting it all back together.

    This is a really good price. The RX350's are just awesome projectors.
