Complete retros are still being made. I know this for sure. mkulrey13 had a ton of headlight pairs to do so patience is a virtue my friend. Trust me when I say they look top notch and the customer service is A+!

Had to flip the gaskets and they slid right in I ordered the relay harness but whenever I tried to use it I couldn't get the lights to go on so I wound up not using the relay harness and they work just fine. What is the point of them anyways?

So you are not running the higher amount of current through the stock wiring to the headlights. Basically, the harness takes a smaller signal voltage from the stock harness, and uses that to turn the relays on and off. The actual power used to run the lights and ballasts comes from the battery and runs through the thicker wires in the harness.

Basically, it stops you from blowing fuses all the time, or even worse, melting wires. I'm not an expert on HID, but I would think that you would not want to run the lights off the stock wiring.

So for $360, i can get custom, black housing, hid retro-fit headlights?

These are the best looking lights ive ever seen.
