I'm interested in a set. I have a SSM 05 TL and would like blacked out & im not sure if you do it or I would just do it on my own but I want yellow fogs. I guess I would have to do trade in program because I can't go that long w/o headlights.

my husband drives an 06 chevy silverado and an 08 Hayabusa. He needs the truck for work since he is an electrician. He would much rather put $ into his bike than his truck. He is very much a man but he would go shopping with me anyday (as long as he is getting something).

I provided link to the ebay listing for CCFLs a few pages ago, you can pick up the LEDs from

http://www.oznium.com/led-flex-strips

you need two 19" white strips. You can either have them shipped directly to me or you can ship them to me directly, pm me for the address.

Did you want a price? If so then $150 if you send your headlights in otherwise for trade in its $150 plus the $25 trade in fee.

$150 for the clearing/blacked out labor and $25 for the LED install/paint. Trade in fee is an extra $25. If you are ready to put your name on the list then kindly update the list on the previous page.

Are you asking cost? Or time?

Clearing the lights means the orange corners will be removed and the turn signal will appear "clear" when looked at. Most people then buy switchbacks which flash orange and illuminate white...Jnc has referenced the switchbacks a few times in this thread if you are curious what they are...

people gotta read more before posting same questions over and over. Must be hard for JNC. If your new you should definately read throught all 24 pages. Most questions can easily be answered through it.

JnC, I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask the question but the search function and review of 24 pages still left me in doubt:

Can a ZKW replica lens be installed without removing the headlight from the car? My goal is better lighting; not really into cosmetics. '07 TL type S

thanks,
The Bro

Hmn... When using the ZKW replicas do you need to use a sort of spacer?

sometimes you do sometimes you dont. Its best to try different # of spacers to see the best light output.

I really want quad Angel eyes for my 06 TL but I was told it can't be done? CRAP. The only way would be to buy 07-08 headlights, but thats BIG $$$.

Should I just get the dual Angle eye kit?
