look how perfect these would look in your cl

just incase there are some of you still deciding. this might change your mind. remember it all goes up on ebay monday. so tomm is your last chance to pick these up b4 hand.

jag s-type xenon projectors $150 with trim pieces!!!!







these would fit great!

bmw 5 series $150 with trim pieces!!!!!!!!!







the bmw fits so perfect its not funny. even the high beam will fit. i also have the bmw halos. this would make one hell of a conversion. i like it better than mine.

wait....WHOA....so both of theose setups would be able to just pop in there? how much custom moddifications would have to be done to get theose to fit!?! theose look soo sweet!!!

so what would u have to do to get theose to fit in the CL headlamp?? Do the BMW ones have the Angel Eyes on them??

This is DEFINITLY my next mod!!! (i wish i had the $$ cuz i'd buy right now!)

Man I want HID's w/projectors. Im NOT mechanically inclined so I would have to send them to you to get done. I might just do a CATZ (or other manfacture for that matter)plug n play for $400 and change.

Shit makes me warm and fuzzy looking at them though.

i sell u all the parts alone for $450 easy if not less. just bulbs and ballasts i get u for only $260.

spend $200 more for a setup 100x better looking and far superior functionality. were talking about $2000 lighting systems here!

none of these will just pop in there, but minor modifications and they will. the bmw could actually pop in if u take out the oem reflector! the halos are not in the pic but i do have them and they were from that headlamp. our housing r so small that you would get ( ) not a halo. the top and bottom will be cut off, but they will fit. honestly the cheapo brand would be 1000x easier to install. bmw fiber optics are no joke. there is a signifigant amount of parts involved that would have to be fit into the headlamp.

there is a big difference from regular xenon and bixenon, and H1

150 nis only for the projectors and i think that is for regular xenon, bi's are more expensive like 180 i think

then you are talking ballasts, then thats another 200-250 then bulbs then harness, im thinking around 600-700 for a sweet setup, thats after you buy all the parts to do it yourself

if you do it yourself you will need some bolts, nuts, a dremel, add on tools for the dremel, quick/magnum steel, and some paint if you want to paint you want to paint yoru housing, this would be a gvood time to since you already have them apart

you cant use HID's without a ballast because the bulbs work by arcing a spark over a gap which requires the very high voltages. you could theoretically use a normal bulb in the projector, but you cant use the 9006
