FS or Trade my xenon retrofitted headlight assemblies

Hi.
I am planning to sell my 1st Gen CL soon and I decided to sell my headlight assemblies that have been retrofitted with Lexus RX330 xenon projectors with BMW E46 projector shrouds fitted in assemblies. This sale is not including xenon ballasts, but just assemblies with projectors installed them. They have good flicking effect in the night or day time and it was bright enough to please me.
Please make an offer.
Also, I am looking for oem headlight assemblies to put on before I sell my car. So, if you want to trade, we can probably do trade with some $$ on the side.
Here, I include url's for pics.

pic2
pic3
pic4

If you have any questions, please e-mail me at akinaboy@hotmail.com.

All you need to have to make them work is a set of ballasts and bulbs.
If you want, I have an used xenon kit available.
The price,, I think $150 with trade of your headlights is fair.. The projectors were nearly $200 and my long hours of installation.
Also, my headlight housings are black as well.

Umm... I want to get rid of them asap, so I can replace them with oem headlights and sell the car.
When do you think you can take them by?

Hi.
These are not bi-xenon, but you have seperate high beams.
I have my used Hella ballasts that I used on these assemblies. IF you take the whole setup including the hella ballasts, bulbs, and headligth assemblies, all you have to do is just tab two wires(+) and (-) on each side low beams, which is very simple.
thanks.

150 is a good price. Shipping is a bitch, but I sold mine months ago (Bi-Xenon).

Sold it for quite a bit more than this too

Hey thanks

I sold my setup cuz I wanted to sell the car and upgrade. The tranny scared me, and I wanted something that had quite a strong, maybe even bulletproof transmission.

I found the IS300 via my signature Quite a nice motor and tranny (2JZ-GE). Pretty much I'll probably never have to worry about the motor/tranny (as the lexus head technician told me).

Your setup is very nice! I like it because when your setup is on, you only see the projector. I didn't have rare bezels like that, so my beam would look like a normal low beam when looking at the headlight, but at night when the output is on, WOW.

You gotta see these projectors in action....I dunno why people are hesitating....labor on this is a REALLY long time....mine took me 23 hours in 4 different shifts so I spent a lot of time on mine....$150 alone should be labor + costs of parts....but he's only going labor I guess.

If I had a CL, I would definitely get this instead of having the hassle of installing them myself. This is simply an amazing setup from what I see in pics.

The output: The cutoff line is very strong, and the output is amazing. EVERYTHING will be lit in front of you....if you have HID's, and you think thats good, this is about 1000000x better. How do I know? I've had everything. Stock, Halogen, HID's, Projectors. Projectors by far is the best mod for appearance. It looks really good on the car during day, and during night the output and the look of the round projector is AMAZING.

HIT THIS UP GUYS!!! I swear if I had a CL, I would jump on these for $150 like nothing.

i know projectors and this guy is selling a very nice setup, the rx330 are a very nice projector and give off very nice color, and the shrouds are an easy 100 bucks shipped by themselves

labor is the hardest part of installing projectors and you did a great setup, i have been doing setups for about a year now for my friends and you have dont a great job and i think someone needs to pick up on these asap

good luck with your sale and i hope you find a good home for these

That is the recent pics taken on Sunday(09-05-04).
The housing is not black black, but nice smokie look.
How's seal? I sealed them up very nicely.
Only one problem is that there was a crack on the bulb holder section when I was trying to adjust the beams. But, I glued them together and it does not bother any more.
No fogging problem when I drove in hard rain in Illinois many times.
thanks.

Hey, I don't know why this forum didn't notify me about new replies on my post.
Anyways.... The deal with CLver did not work out since he only had black housing headlights when I wanted oem chrome housings.
Now, I want to buy a set of headlights first and then sell my headlights later on, so I don't have to remove my headlighs in hurry.
Anyone wants to sell a pair of oem headlight housings?
thanks.

I guess it would be the best to find a pair of headlight housings first and then put mine up for sale.. In that way, noone has to wait until I swap them and send to them.

I can provide with night pics, but not headlight units off the car. That is too much work for just taking pics.
