Hi, can someone PM me the differences between 05 and 06 headlights? I want to hook up my buddy with my headlights, but he has an 06 and I am unsure if my lights are a direct swap. IIRC, read somewhere that the ballast are different. Will wiring be an issue?
Thanks!

o6 and o5 share all same bulbs and whatnot otherwise so there will be no wiring issues.
Got a set of 04-05 TL headlights for sale $400 shipped. Inner tab on the passenger side headlight has been mended.
Details
04-05 TL headlights
Blacked out Matte black V1
Headlights will look identical to the following



Potential buyer has to let me know the following
Paint the fog light bulb cover or leave it chrome?
Paint the chrome strip across the turn signal or leave it chrome?
For an additional $50 I can install a set of ZKW-R lenses and also carbon fiber inlays.

Yessir, I have been slacking a little bit on updating the thread with the recent projects
as I have been mostly busy with 4G lights and occasional 3G ones.
The best way to get in touch with me is through my cell/txt at (five zero eight) three six zero - eight three two zero.

BTW have you installed your lights? Post pictures if you can.
Hey - Did you have any issues related to having a Canadian Domestic Market TL? I'd like to do a swap, as I'm all the way out on the west coast, but only if the headlights are the same as a USDM.
Quads are usually for esthetics, no one needs that much light on the road as with the sharp cut off your eyes start hurting after a while. I should know as I use to have TL/ZKW and AP1 S2k combo in my 02 TL-S back in the day.

Shipping my old ones back to you Monday....forgot to bring them into work today...whoops..
They look great though as I would have expected, and no leaks on these ones so far! Thanks again
Hey JnC, I don't know if you remember me, but I need to send my TL-S lights in again. My halos burned out, so I'm in the process of buying new ones. The ballasts from the previous halos were kinda crappy and burned out the rings prematurely.
How much would it cost to reinstall new halos on my TL-S lights?

Imabeast31's head lights
Imabeast31 sent his lights in a few weeks ago to had them redone. The front lenses were shot due to heat damage caused by being in the over for too long. He also got into a fender bender and damaged the passenger side light severely, which included broken inside bezel and completely shattered inner side mount of the headlight plus the headlight itself had a crack.
Couple of before pictures to show the damage and condition of the front lens.


As I personally love challenges like these I wanted to fix these lights rather then replace them with new ones.
