Black Housed + LED Headlights

Hi all,

Anyone have any recommended sources or DIY for the blackhousing and led headlights, similar to the below:

I remember a couple yrs back, it may have been on the z forum, a guy used to offer this service to black house your OEMs and install the LEDs, not sure if the guy is still around or not. The ebay ones may be too cheap looking.

You should check out hidplante forum or get in touch with the peps at Theretrofittingsource.com

I think there is a vender here that offers a headlight mod service.

Also there is a diy on here for opening headlights and painting the insides, check the DIY section

Sorry to bust your ***** but those will only get you 03-05 headlight performance (maybe), but strive more for the cool guy look. It's up to you, but the stock projectors are an amazing upgrade for looks and performance.

Those headlights look like what you would put on a Honda Civic.
Take your OEM and paint them you will be so much happier.
Some of these dont even fit well and leave gaps between the fender and bumper.
If you have 03-04 then you can also retrofit some projectors. Or upgrade to OEM projectors (expensive)

I've got them on my car, the fit is great...but the visibility absolutely sucks....gives me a placeholder to fully customize my stock 06 projectors the exact way I want them....I think they look great on a white car, but the performance....I'm not so happy with. OEM projectors put out way more light.
