FS: Bi-xenon Retro... Dirt Cheap!

Economy blows, I work for eBay... possible lay-offs, so i am rethinking my finances. I don't need these anymore so I am just selling the main headlight parts that you can swap out.

You will receive the bezel with mounted E55 Projectors. Projectors are in great condition with pigtails for soleniods. They have a fresnel lense in them, but you can swap them out for clear lenses to improve the light output.

You will also receive OEM Lexus Ballasts (Not the slims). I also have the bulbs and ignitors to go with as well. Everything you need to hook them up for $275 shipped.

PM With Offers.

Pictures....


It's the chrome bezel part.

Here is an example of pricing...

Projectors

Ballasts

Bulbs

Now include labor costs... I don't need to sell these as they were part of by Dual Projetors, but I am probably gunna be trading the car in for something just as a cheap DD

Pop the clear lense off in the oven. Then unscrew the bezel (3 torque screws). Then just pop the chrome bowl out. Then push the new modified bowl in, hook the power wire up to the battery and plug the bulbs in. Reseal the headlights.

These are TRUE HIDs... not the plug and play stuff. This is OEM quality that you would receive from buying a lexus. Ask an0malous, he did a build and can vouch.

Ask smartdude, ask anyone who has done a build. OEM > Aftermarket as far as quality goes.

The bulbs are 5200k so they are a bright white with very little blue tint. If you wanted to upgrade to a different color you would have to see what bulbs they offer with D2S connectors

If they don't sell, I will just rip them apart and use them on my new car.

Nobody? Honestly... wow. I should rip them apart and put them up on HIDPlanet for more.

I can wait til monday. I work all weekend the way it is. I work for PayPal so obviously PayPal is going to be my perferred way of Payment. As a PayPay employee though, it also holds me liable for the transaction. If we get dinged for screwing people out of their money, they are gunna be walking me out the door.

Deal fell through... so back for sale. If these aren't gone here shortly, i'm just gunna rip them apart and post the parts up on HIDPlanet. It would probably be more profitable that way anyway.

Holy fast moving forum
