Just so you know Jotech does halo mods too.. Looks just like the clearcorners.com mods.. That's what they pattern theirs after.

^^ They also charge 75/hour minimum 2 hours per light. Thats for the ccfl halo kits, im sure the LED mods would take much longer. No Bueno

thats still 300 dollars without and additional cost involved...if they break you are screwed.....the one thing with LEDs is that they last alot longer, no fade or cause coloring issues within the headlight and typically when they do go out its a circuit board that you can correct pretty easily. Mike's price does involve the labor he puts into them but it also adds in the experience, technology, and customer servic that he stands behind so insure you are satisfied with his product. If an issue goes wrong you can send it back to be corrected without a charge.

well they quoted 1100 for the LEDs (clearcorners.com is 1700).. They'll also paint lights for 500 (because it takes the same amount of labor to get in the lights, and they use good paint, not spraypaint) which is still cheaper than the 800 that clearcorners charges. If you do both, they'll paint the lights for another 150, so you can get lights painted (color matched to car) and LED halos for 1250 for the pair..

Well if they specialize in paint, then it is prolly cheaper for them to do the paint work.. They said they'd put on my front bumper and sideskirts for 250.. They do that too..

not sure the warranty involved...About the projectors, that is true.. I have already acquired the 06 projectors from Tony at Riverside..

^I know... why you think I haven't done it either... bwahahahahahah.. Just passing along the quote for those interested.

I couldn't financially justify spending that much on lights either.. I just wanted mine painted. And now I'm not even sure about that.

Yes sir they will, they are an auto body and collision center, I gave them my car and all the pieces (unpainted) and picked up a new car it seemed like... PM me and I'll give you the info if you wanna get a qoute.

Its best to give them a call or stop by. Its hard to say cause it depends on how much touch up. They are right off of Ave K and Plano Parkway 972-633-2201, ask for Mike
