ecko508 did my headlights, but I am sure he'd work on them via shipment or something. It only takes a few minutes to drop him a message.

AckTL05 quoted me at umm...I think 140? around there...I gotta check my pm's. Dave, you gonna do it? Killer decided to be a girl and not get his cleared out. Ack just got a new place of business to do it back in May I believe so he should all set up for clearing out headlights. I'm trying to find the time to do it...maybe in August? But I also want vled switchbacks...

Edit: Just checked..120 if u take it out and send it to him. 160 if you have him do all the work. I was going to go the route of having him do everything cuz well...i'm too chicken shit to take it out myself. Wonder if we can get it a little cheaper if we get a bunch of us to go to him...*ahem Killer/Dave/Myself?

don't worry guys. taking out the headlights IMO is much easier than taking out the bumper. check out kawloon's DIY, that's how i learned to take mine out. all you need is socket wrench and you are good to go.

lol@ killer being a girl tho haha

any of you getting switch backs afterwards? 5000k or 6000k?

the headlights are only 4 bolts. you'll need a socket wrench and a regular wrench because 1 of the bottom bolts is a b****.
Two bolts on top (one is hidden under the plastic cover toward the outsides of the bay).
Other two are underneath. 1 is directly above the resonator bolt and the other is .....

you'll figure it out. its easy!

i have the 6k vleds. i picked up some yellow led turn signals to hopefully match my 3k DRL and 3k foglights

if the yellow led turnsignals dont match, then ill just pick up some 6k low beam HID bulbs and keep the 6k vleds

if youre clearing out your headlights, that would also be a good time to take out your resonator if you want to feel some real power and make it sound like a beast.

Removing the resonator has definitely been the best mod I've done to my car...yet.
