super awesome thanks to scarsofterror for making these headlights and harness for me.. wish i had the money to get better projectors, but the work came out awesome.. thanks jj=)

took me forever to get these lights in coz of various things that have popped up.. but last week, i finally bit the bullet and got the bulbs and ballasts i needed to install everything.. here's a rundown on what's in the lights

- headlights
- fx35 projectors<these are single bulbs with the flapper for highs, mine are not the clear lenses>
- harness<with the relay, fuse and stuff>
- led parking bulbs<not really needed but it matches.. i should also get better turning lights>
- digital ballasts
- philips bulbs<mine are 5k>

i can't believe these have been in my garage for about a year and haven't been installed all this time.. i really wish i had gotten these in sooner, these lights are really awesome.. ok, on with the pics=)

Looking good...are you running the Heineken Keg can shrouds?

And I'm not 100%, but I think you can swap some TSX clear lenses into the FX projectors which give a nice sharp cutoff with tons of color. Something to consider down the road instead of buying completely new projectors.

thanks.. i think they're heineken can shrouds haha.. good eye

ya i was debating which projectors to get at the time, but i didn't want to spend a ridiculous amount of money, these were only 92 shipped haha.. if the time comes, i'll get another set made:D:D

i like, looks clean :banana:

thanks=)

isnt nice lighting incredible? it really gives you peace of mind at night.

how do you lik the high beams?

hah i do feel a lot better now that i have better lighting.. what sucks when i drive is that i can barely see where i'm turning coz of the apillars being so thick.. the stock halogens really don't help with their limited output too, but these would help me much more when i'm cruising up canyons and such

i forgot to take more pics.. i should include high beam pics too.. hopefully i can get around to that this weekend

Welcome to better lighting :)

thanks=)

Makin' me jealous Terence :unamused: :lol:

Headlights look good. Looks like a definate increase in visibility.

do eeeet=)

it really is.. i'm very very happy with 'em.. i tell everyone to get better lights if they don't already have a good set haha

Lights look good on the car, I prefer a little chrome left in the turn signal area personally. Get some more pics of the lights on the car too!

I was driving on the AC expressway at night this past weekend and the whole time I was thinking,"Damn I should pull over and get some pics of the beam," lol... for those that don't know the expressway has no ambient lighting and is 3 (or 4) lanes wide with trees blocking the opposing traffic lanes.

ya, i realized the issue with the turn signal coz without the reflector in full use, the light won't be shone as bright.. that's why i said i needed better bulbs there to compensate the loss of intensity

shoot, i really wanted to get some more pics but i couldn't get the chance.. it's finals week=(

but i'll be in school later tonight and stay pretty late.. so i should be able to get some pix by then

Dude nice job! I think I may have to do this upgrade to mine...

cant go fast if you can't see

nice lights dude

thanks, but i can't really take any credit.. i had a buddy make the lights.. if you're able to, i'd encourage you to make them also!!

cant go fast if you can't see

nice lights dude

thanks=)



updated with a couple more pics.. i will probably put more pics of the beam from further away while i can tonight

those dont look handmade, he did a great job.

he sure did=)

wow finally got them in huh terrence? thanks for the comments guys, and im glad your happy with them!

the reason he doesnt have the chrome in the signal housing is because these were an extra set of lights i got from a friend that i sold to him. and they were already painted ALL black, i prefer chrome in the signal housing as well. But they still look good terrence, nice to see them put to work!

we need to meet up so i can take some pics with the dslr terrence, going to the canyons anytime soon?

yup, i'm pretty stoked i've finally got 'em in!! everytime someone tells me their lights suck, i always mention your name to retrofit

funny you asked, the pics i just updated with on the second post was from a couple nights ago in malibu.. but for sure, we can meet up anytime this week since i'm on break=)

hmmmm, i work 8-5 mon-fri. but sometime during the weekend is fine.

and when your ready for a tsx lens swap lmk, i also found some cool custom shrouds that look just like the e55 shrouds. we can throw those in at the same time!

cool.. just gimme a call whenever you're free next weekend

nice!! how much do those run??

about $40 bucks, but they look way better. clear lenes are $100.

go for clear lenses. they are def worth it.

^^he speaks the truth

i may have to do that then haha

about $40 bucks, but they look way better. clear lenes are $100.

Where can i buy these?

checkout hid-planet.org classifieds. a bunch of cool stuff pops up daily.

also try ebay

Sorry, I meant where can I buy the shrouds for $40

haha, ebay and hid planet they sell everything

i got my e55's for 40 bucks on ebay... theyre not knockoffs either. hella makes the OEM ones.
