Here is some pics of new headlights in both of my cars.
Also click on the links to see how I connected the Leds in the headlights.

We have a few guys here that have put those headlights on, but i must say somehow yours are not as 'blinding' as theirs are.
The covers are of plastic, right? You may want to insulate them - there's this coating that also gives a year warranty or something. (At high speeds, a stone chip can make you scream...) HEHEHE Anyway, NICE! :thumbsup: |

They are glass and already have the EXPEL on my car. The wifes are glass but no coating.

Yes the lens is glass like OEM ones but clear. The first set I bought here.
http://www.autorice.com/catalog/default.ph...e65fe4318e34c21 But it looks like they don't have them anymore. The second set I bought used from someone. |

autorice, eh?
OK, will try to see that. The ones sold here are all made of plastic. SIMILAR design to yours, but in plastic. So, that worries me a lot. Cos mainly, its NOT CHEAP. THough beautiful. So, during high speed runs, a small pebble can cause the whole cover to shatter and break into pieces. Hmmmm... Thanks, Tech. |

At Autorice = USD169.00, by the time it reaches Malaysian shores, the price became RM1,300.00 (Exchange rate is around RM3.2 to USD1)
Must be the crazy transport charges. :haha: But who'd believe that? :) |

Hehe, that's what i thought. And the salesguy is like calling me up, and asking WHEN am i going to put it on.
I said, "Errr... Dont know, maybe when you give me like a 45% discount or something?" :haha: This post has been edited by ampangbear: Aug 21 2008, 11:52 PM |
