FINALLY!! I finished my headlights =]updated pics 12/9

[x5carl3tMurd3rx]

so I finished my headlights today!! blackhoused them, removed the amber stripes and retrofitted a 12" CCFL tube in each parking light. Oh ya and I finally got my HID's installed too 5k DDM tuning 35watt kit took a few pics and a short video once I finished them. for some reason the ccfl in the drivers side headlight doesn't look very bright in the video but in person they're both very bright.

COMMENTS AND CRITICISM PLEASE!!!!!

clicky for video

edit: OH YA!!!! forgot to mention my stock lenses were way beyond restoration so I used the clear lenses from my egay projectors. Makes such a huge difference =]

Re: FINALLY!! I finished my headlights =]

looks fresh, ive been thinkin about doing this for awhile. i was thinking a red or amber led strip

Re: FINALLY!! I finished my headlights =]

ya I was back and forth between LED and ccfl i went with the ccfl cause its really bright, and easy to install. Plus I just heard of alot of people having problems with LEDs like having one or two lights go out on a strip so than it just looks retarded.

Not bad for a first set, next time work on a retrofit.

Red is illegal on the front of a vehicle, except for emergency vehicles.

To the OP, looking good.

Ya I wanted to do one with these but I can't afford it, and I was too sick of my ebay projectors to wait untill I could.
