what ya got in mind about that site? that stuff looks like real good quality equipment as well.
....i'm on a slippery slope here because i'm thinking on trying those Hella halogen projectors....which are a sealed unit, no cover lens needed.....it's still illegal but not if used on a motorcycle in the USA......e-codes aren't legal either, but that is a legal horse of a different color so it's a nonstarter conversation too.....but making a headlight behind a stock lens on OUR trucks is a DIFFERENT kind of illegal in my mind...HAHA, i know....backyard engineering 2.0...one guy on here did a nice job i think, i'd have to go back and refresh my recollection before further comment.
oh the options if we went to W/T grill assembly!
.....and because i live in the heart of this loonie bin know as zoo yawk shity, or New York City to outsiders, i can tell you that the worst thing in the world is these homegrown headlight techs.....the newest cars are somewhat annoying to me because of glare and my wrecked eyes....but these billions of little tuner ***** with UFO lighting and competition stereo systems are only on this phuckin earth to challenge my ability to NOT let my wolf loose.....oh, i fu@kin hate em!........tis why i'm trying to upgrade my vehicle with stock bulbs......and what "legal" lenses we have to use. .....i'm kinda like a half-a-hypocrite in that case then.
a few of us have seen that "black market" thread and have tried to help the gent......though some of us have lost patience for this kind of stuff.....i doubt it will stop us from trying though.
yea, $188.32 per side........if there was a reasonable way to get them, i'd actually consider it because i like weird, odd, cool lookin stock ****..just look at any of my bikes...i'd bet they're almost as good as Bosch e-codes too, which are no longer available, so it's actually a viable legal-lookin option that would work well with a harness upgrade imo....
Lord knows i'v not been a choire boy in my past life and i'm not cowering behind a law guide.......i just don't wish to be interviewed by a LEO on the side of the road for any reason i can prevent. it's a waste of our time....and i don't want to distract or 'dazzle' anyone whilst driving, that's dangerous.
God i miss living upstate.
