Custom built HID retrofits

Putting my current lights on the market, gotta pay for the new hotness

Personally built from 2008 OEM housings, Morimoto MH1 projectors with flat black painted shutters to reduce glare, painted inner housing, E55-R shrouds, Morimoto 3Five 4300k bulbs, Morimoto 3Five ballasts, custom built plug and play ballast relay harness with sealed OE type relay, factory grade wiring and heatshrink, abrasion resistant tape, way better than the crappy Ebay/online HID store relays







Only "major" flaw, chrome rubbed off in drivers reflector for turn signal


Heres what went into my custom relay harness.

High quality American made 16 and 18 gauge TXL wire. Not the typical "hookup" wire you find at a store, meets GM specs for wiring and even feels physically different than the much more common and cheaper PVC and nylon insulated wires, noticeable is the much tougher, higher temp resistant and thinner jacket. This allows for thinner lighter weight harnesses that are easier to hide, are more heat and abrasion resistant and are made to same standards(or higher!) as your factory wiring

Skirted and sealed mini relays. Fully weather sealed, OEM quality, and actually designed for underhood use. No worries of relay ingesting water, or other moisture.

Factory Delphi/Packard electrical connectors and terminals:
The exact same GM OEM connectors, seals, locks and terminals as used on your car. This means the same durability and quality as stock, it also means the harness looks like it belongs in my car.

All terminals crimped with OEM tools, AND soldered for improved connections, this is above and beyond OEM. All splices soldered AND sealed with adhesive lined OEM type heat shrink. No crappy quick connect bullet connectors, low tension crimps, or wires twisted and taped together.

harness wrapped with abrasion resistant tape . No ♠♠♠♠ty Harbor Freight Chinese electrical tape to get gooey and slide around. A more OEM appearance, less prone to chafing/damage.

harness fused with highest quality OEM fuses and sealed fuse holders, using same ATM stlye fuses as the car. No open to the elements or wrapped in tape fuse holders to collect moisture and corrosion, no low quality fuses that dont blow at proper rating (Google: Harbor Freight fuse or, chinese fuse recall)






$400 shippedUS48

These arent "silver" they are a satin metallic. They wont match factory silver cars.....but they do look really good on all the blue cars, SRTC, black and orange. (theres a little champagne or gold tint to the paint)

That's a redic good deal. Morimoto are arguably the best HID's on the market and the harness is better quality than what you will find in most OEM situations. The quality of the lights themselves blows other retros out of the water...

I'm REALLY interested in these, I'm just not sure about the color... I'd like the interiors to be flat black preferably. Any chance you'd be willing to re-open and paint them? I've got the money right now that I can wire through PayPal.
