Yep, very keen.......too bad you didn't catch up with Kim as you could have seen his set up.

They will perform as well as any HID Projector conversion............bloody awesome....words cannot describe the feeling of turning on your lights and seeing that brilliant white cut off line and the color flicker as it dances across road side signs...

As they say.seeing is believing.

And these lights are still available to anyone who wants them ..you pay ,i will build them for you.

Hmm, how much? How much for just projectors without HID?

Cheers,

.and what would the point be in that....

The projectors are built to use a HID globe.

Using anything else ,just wont work as well,again ,why would you.
....

but if you wanted to just use the projectors and run halogen globes...um...$60-70 will get you a set of projectors......plus shipping if you choose to pay ,otherwise ,free shipping ,but it takes a LONG time to get here.

Are you trying to avoid the whole "hid " issue and just use halogen....every second car now days has some form of projector headlight and even a halogen reflector will flash ,glare and blind you with the best of them.

Cheers Mike. So how much for the HIDs? Also, is it a swap deal or supply my own?

Okay ...now we are talking whole kit....

plus you need these to control the headlight operation because you are going from a H4 set up to a H! set up and you need to "trick the stock wiring to stay on "low "all the time.

and ,then there is the choice of shrouds if you want something different to the ones supplied...

angel eyes as DRL's

it just goes on and on....

Then ,you may then need to think of installing a hid kit in your high beam ,after all, it will be next to useless now with the outer HID

and then...............


.......na ,just kidding ,but ,you could then go quad projectors......but that is just more and more money.

Then its 6k or 5k globes ...35 or 55 watt ballasts.

As far as actually building them ....best to take it to PM,

Easiest way would be for you to give me your headlights and i will supply you a "loan " set while i build yours.
