3G type-s headlights for stock!

Hey guys, looking to come up with some extra cash on the side... prioritizing...

I have for trade only my type-s headlights that have the following mods:

-Cleared (can provide original amber pieces (4))
-Color-modded (blue haze above light cutoff)
-White leds (every other led covered)
-80mm angel eyes (top of housing had to be custom, to fit the top of the halos, also so that the top of the halos don't come in contact with plastic as that can melt/warp the bezel).
-The leds and halos have a separate switch that comes with them.

A note about the angel eyes, only the inner rings work for now, I believe the outer ring angel eyes had their inverters burn out. So I usually have the inner halos on with the headlights.

The "audi-style" leds work perfectly fine and still have a lot of life on them as I had a separate switch for both the angel eyes and the leds. I don't think i've had them on for over an hour since I got them, lol.

A LOT of work went into them as it wasn't easy getting the leds to fire forward, and also because the halos were slightly bigger than umnitzas. They took around 3 days to finish. The rings are also more of a closed circle that "U" shaped.

I have authentic E46 ZKW lenses in there but I would like to transfer them over to the stock type s lights you provide as those were pretty expensive.

The headlights themselves are in excellent condition; no cracks or broken tabs.

Looking to get $375+ your stock type s headlights (unmodded).

You can trace the entire progress of these specific headlights in this thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/my-upcoming-final-projekts-707837/

A trip down memory lane..........

Oh ya, local only, lol. My mechanic will swap the headlights over... we will split the cost which isn't going to be that much.

Email me instead of PM'ing please! brianyooarecool@gmail.com

UA6 is the generation code for the 04-06 TLs. UA7 is for 07-08 Type-S TL's, and UA9 is for the new SH-AWD TL (UA8 being the base '09-'10 TL).

It's a real plate, and you can only have one license plate # per state so... technically no, not everyone can have it.

Let's eliminate tangents please....

Regardless, I would need another set, because I don't have extra headlights. I prefer type-s headlights.. will consider your offer though.

Haha, who knows they will still probably be here when you get back...

For incentive, I have decided to INCLUDE the authentic E46 ZKW lenses... so bump for $375 + your stock type-s headlights.

I believe I paid approximately $120 for those lenses.

Recent pics? They look exactly the same.. nothing has changed.

I didn't really care much for where I put the two switches, so I stuck them between the panels on the left side of the steering wheel.... the crevice above the mirror switches and heated mirror button, and under the aluminum trim.

No. There are no "bulbs". They are leds.... and they dont get hot, they get warm. So the tape has not been altered in any way.

I would definitely ship if you pay, but that means you would need to send me your stock headlights first.... but what would you have then
