well, there's a big difference between what's available and what others have done. For instance, you can get these which are available



Or several of us have done our own thing

Simple blackhouse


Blackhouse and Tinting insides


Tinting outsides


And my personal favorite, retrofitted headlights with smoked corners

some other ideas...

I have a set of stock oem lights for sale if you need a pair to mod, so there is no downtime while you work.

Here's one from a retrofit I did on my wife's CL. Actually it was my very first retrofit ever and it was a quad setup at that. 1CL headlights are very small, comparably speaking to most I've done afterwards. If you did plan on doing a retro, I wouldnt advise anything other than Morimoto H1's or D2S mini's. For their cost, size and performance, you can't beat them. The H1's have awesome color as well. In addition, the H1's mounting base is very close to size as the 9005 bulb (or was it 9006?) lowbeam bulb so with some minor trimming of the socket hole, it slides right in. :-)

If you want someone to build and sell yo ua set of retrofit ones be prepared to spend some coin. Takes some work to get it done
