Default OEM HID black projector headlights

Just as the title states. Are you looking to do a retrofit and want to sell yours please let me know? Need to come complete, all bulbs and ballasts etc. I will pick up a harness from someone. I live in Kansas, so any offers please including your shipping.

Thanks

Brett

There is a guy on eBay who sells complete new sets for $950.
Best price around unless you strike gold.

Personally, because the Oem hid housings look better than halogen retrofits. Don't get me wrong, some of them look great, but the 13 hid housing looks better

Plus an evo projector is a bolt in affair if I feel like upgrading.

Just my .02

Except your core value of $350 for stock HID's is outrageously low when you can sell these headlights for 700+ on eBay.

I can get the retrofit components for $400 and install myself. Or one of the vendors on here will install for $100 extra.

If you offered fully retrofit 13 HID Headlights for $950 with no core or anything, it would be worthwhile.

What vendors on here can install for $100? I'm interested in doing this!

Joseph, aka Tuxedoblack11, who owns ProjectoRetrofits.

Here's his kit:

http://www.projectoretrofits.com/app...s/show/3526008

And he has posted he will install for $100 if you send your lights to him.

He also only charges $25 per pair to paint headlights, Halo rings are only $75-100.

So everything Jpalessi is offering except "demon eyes" which I dont like anyways, for 650ish. A lot less than $950, and a FANTASTIC guy to work with.

That's a pretty good deal right there.. And agreed, Tuxedoblack is a very nice guy. He helped me by promptly answering some of my questions during my first retrofit. I wouldn't hesitate to use him. Just find out what his lead time is, I'm sure he's a busy man, unless that doesn't matter to you.

Shoot I sent mine out to another retrofitter that told me he could start mine in 3-4 weeks or less. I sent him my lights during the third week as he requested, now its 5 weeks later and all I got was a picture of them open haha .

if he is willing to work on a set of lights for 2 days for $100 then god bless him. my time is worth a lot more than $50 a day. doing a good job building n painting lights takes time. <br />
<br />
2011 send in 650 retrofitted w parts n hid system<br />
buy 2013's from me w evox-r upgrade 1150, 1250 w halo. (650 if you send in yours)

His quality is second to none, so I don't think he rushes anything. To each their own.

OP, I would buy from a paid forum vendor as my first choice who has a long thread documenting his work on this forum.

Thank you all for the suggestions! I really dig the look of the OEM headlights, so I would ultimately like to go that route, but if I can get them done much cheaper, well then retrofit it might be. I will get in touch with some people.
