Interest in aftermarket projector headlights?

[Beatrice]

Is it just me? Or would other people like to see the coupe with projectors? I would personally like to see some blackhoused headlights with projector(s). Some of these companies need to hop on production because from what I hear, the A/C is red hot. Hard to find at any stealership. Too bad retrofitting is pretty much out of the question because of headlight assy shape, and space issues in the engine bay

Nope,.You're not the only one expressing interest in these. I would like to see projectors for both low and high beam, blacked out housing LEDs for turn signals just like the Audi RS8 That would look so sexy!

Every one wants this done. I don't see how retro fitting would be a problem.

the reason being most of the aftermarket projectors blow. They obscure your HID output like crazy due to the use of generic/low grade projectors. Retrofit is definitely the way to go, but that has a downside too, if you want to have it done (both low/high beams) it will be $1000+ at least, and most ppl r just not goin to spend that much on headlights, but to me that's one investment i dont mind spending.

Or you can be a cheap *** and just buy some real projectors off of ebay for $200 and cut a hole in the original headlight housing and make them fit...

[Absolute Zero]

I'd love this... Throw in some TSX projectors or similar quality and have options like blacked out and definitely options for the leds would be awesome.

If no aftermarket comes out with those, I'm gona buy some spare headlights from ebay and try to retrofit some projectors in it.

There is a high demand for it, someone has to notice !

because when you start messing with headlight and taillight modifications you are messing with the DOT. A company called APC used to do this back in the 90's and they were huge. Until they got hit with a fine from the DOT for millions.

by all means! but your paying close to $700 per headlight!

just to give you guys a heads up ,last weekend i tried to bake my headlights.... but to no avail, they wouldnt open for crap. we did a set of g35, an a set from an rsx.... but the a/c headlights wouldnt open......

[Beatrice]

son of a.... there goes one idea

[alphapig]

It's actually possible to open them. There's a thread on this, I'm too lazy to look it up. Some guy opened up the headlights and painted the housing black.

As for the DOT... Well those of us that retrofitted our cars with HID's don't have to worry about that since we already screwed it. It's a shame that they got the aftermarket companies though.

Oh... And I saw several slightly messed up headlights on ebay from $30 to $100. Not bad at all.

Has anyone checked out http://customlightz.com/?p=p_1&sName=homeI think you send him the housing and then tell them how you want it setup.

Guys, Lightwurkz did my lights in the White Altima Coupe for $450 bucks and my Focus Coupe I did as well. They can do anything you want for your coupe. Just give them a call and tell them what you want and they will give you a price. They are in San Fran.
