Sedan Retrofit (SoCal)

I'm just seeing the options that are out there since I'm interested in retrofitting my headlights. Are there any shops in the OC area or people on the forum who will retrofit/build for me? Thanks in advance

BAUSauto is located in LA, he has done amazing work. but then again if you get quads you are going to pay close to 1k.

BAUS isn't doing them anymore, your best bet would be to have r1forever (Stephen) do them. He does excellent work! He lives in TX so you'll have to ship your lights to him.

Thank you for all the quick replies! Sorry, I've been away from forums for awhile. I can't really do shipping since my cars a daily driver and I'm just trying to see if there are anymore local and closer options. Anymore suggestions guys?! =(

You can buy a set of ebay lights and have them shipped to me and i can retrofit them or i may have an extra set of oem lights that i might be able to retro and ship. Doing a retro isnt a day project. it may take a few days to get them perfect

IMO I think you should do it yourself. Buy a set of used OEM headlights (hopefully for cheap) and buy one of those retrofit packages and get cracking.

I spoke to a few people willing to do the retrofit an though it would save me the hassle the doing it, I'd rather have the extra $350-500 in my pocket.(excluding parts BTW)

I have some Spyder headlights that I can sell you and you can send the to Stephen. The lenses are broken but you can swap your current lenses on to them
