I'm looking to get smoked headlights and taillights.. I don't want to spend a fortune.. I'd love to do HIDS but lack the knowledge to do it myself.. I was looking at these

To be honest I would recommend you getting a retrofit set for headlights will be much better and you dont have to spend a fortune in them either a simple set will look great and perform better, I have a set they need a bit of work tho

Any links to ones you recommend to buy? I'm not even sure what the difference between retrofit lights and other lights.

Yeah it's much better the ones I have as a spare are the ones you see I'm my signature

I don't feel I have the skills to take the lights apart and do all that, or the time. I work 11 hour days, six days a week. It sucks haha. I'll Def keep the originals and do it as a side project but for now I'm just gonna buy them.

There are a ton of guys out there that build retros. You can get a basic build and keep it on the cheaper side.

I got mine done through Adam (Riceburner), but I don't think he does them anymore since he sold his cobalt. Basswaves might still do them. You would have to ask. There are a ton on facebook as well.

I think he still does I mean he doesn't necessary need the cobalt to make them

I went cheaper and got depo projectors and put hid's in the low beams, wiring them to stay on with the highs, and love them. Been running them for several years. Took the money I didn't spend on headlights and had colodude build me some smoked k2 tails like the gtr's have and couldn't be happier. Personally I had smoked headlights on my camaro and haaaated them. Looked great, but were worthless for spotting deer on the way home.
