if you dont have HID , just get them off ebay. if you have HID then your going to have to paint the inside yourself.

If you want to tint the lens, get a kit from BlueBatMobile.

If you want the inside painted, open them up and paint the shroud.

^ You need the HID housing also. It will not bolt in directly if it's the non-HID one. I tried it before.

I didn't order mine, they are the stock lights painted with S2000 and TL projectors retrofit and AAC halos in them.

I did all the work myself.


Picture ***** time!

It takes a lot of time and the parts are not cheap. If I were to do my lights again for someone it would be around $2k+. They have well over $1k in parts and that is when you find them for a deal.

what doesn't bolt in correctly ? The ballasts ? can't they be mounted to something else ?

the HID stuff I bought is all OEM with the square box looking ballasts.
