Default 2007 HID retro pics

With SO MANY things going on, I finally uploaded these pics. These are 2007 headlights (no amber strips) with Acura TL bi-xenon projectors. I have ZWK lens that still need to go in these. They gave Gatlin shrouds as you can see. They will be VIN color matched with LED turns and Oracle (red) rings. These are not mine but someone else's I am doing them for. More pics will come soon but right now there is too much going on.

Im also doing a 02-05 bezel for someone else. My truck is in the middle of getting new exhaust and my new lift came in today so next weekend I have an idea of what I might be doing.

Anyway, enjoy.

I dont mind putting prices out there because they are not my prices. I but from where ever I can get the best price from

3" projectors start at $100 and go up to $240
ZKW lens are $50
Shrouds are $50
new 02-05 headlights are 100 +/-
HID kits are 50+ (must be D2S bulbs)
VIN paint is about $15 a can (dealer item)
Halos are about $40
Oracles are $200+
LED turns are $20

WEED, downsize those pics. nobody is going to be able to see them, and it's just going to annoy people.

Umm...I was....but then I decided I needed two trucks. So Im upping my current truck and looking for a RC body and frame. I dont need the motor or trans as Im just going to build my own and I will bag it. That also means my 6.1 intake will be saved for the other truck.

IMO, you would be better buying new headlights at 100 +/- to use and then sell your originals for 60-75

If you already have an HID kit you can buy D2S bulbs ($10-20) but you will also need D2S adapters ($15) and slightly modify your existing harness.

If you have mechanical xenon bulbs (9007) then you would actually take the wire that powers the magnetic base and send it to a relay that would power the projector solenoids. That way when you turn the highs it keeps the bulbs lit AND power the solenoid which in turn energizes and moves to allow more light out.
