Are you referring to the HID (High Intensity Discharge) lamps that are O.E. on some of the higher end cars these days? Or are you referring to the blue-tinted Halogen bulbs that people use to try and emulate the HID look without actually laying out the cash for the much better light output?

If it's the former you're after....check with SUVlights.com they have both free-form reflector models and projectors in the 7" format.

If it's the later- troll your local Wal-Mart.

Well I'm not looking for a stock look lol

Anywho, stock looks fine for a lot of trucks, but I like this truck to be different

Longhorn Man · 02-04-2008, 02:17 PM

i e-mailed him with a couple Q's last night, and haven't heard anything back

Spray-Bomb · 02-04-2008, 02:22 PM

I figure he doesn't work weekends, so I don't expect to hear back from him till monday

Longhorn Man · 02-04-2008, 03:29 PM

good point. I work saturdays, so i wasn't thinking of it as a weekend.

Being a camaro owner, I'm a member on a 2nd gen forum. Most guys say the ebay lights are junk and bulk of them use hella's lights.

Spray-Bomb · 02-05-2008, 06:27 AM

IDK bout these in particular, but the ones I'm running in my truck now came from eBay & I have no problem with them

Now these could be total junk, but I'm willing to be the guinea pig here & test them

67C

I'm going to do the blinker/headlight thing to. But with that price it will be one of the last things.

Here's a place thats a little cheaper...

Thanks for posting that.

Pl4yboy · 02-05-2008, 04:06 PM

I bought a pair for the 69 on Evilbay about 6 months ago and they work great. They aren't the black ones though, they are mirrored. Also, I made sure that the lenses were glass before I bought them, and they they are indeed H-4s. I had heard stories of people getting screwed. I'll take some pics when its not 1:30 am.

Pl4yboy · 02-05-2008, 04:17 PM

Mine are more like these...

Spray-Bomb · 02-06-2008, 01:59 AM

Cool

Well hopefully the black won't make too much difference on mine

Spray-Bomb · 02-06-2008, 06:28 AM

The guy emailed me back today & this is what he said

"Hi, the auction is for 2 headlights, both left and righ side.

Thank you"

So Ima order them & I'll post pics when I get them in

Longhorn Man · 02-06-2008, 06:31 AM

He never e-mailed me back.

Spray-Bomb · 02-07-2008, 11:27 AM

Thanks Orange, I agree with you completely

I just think they look cool, & I need some new lights for my truck
As much as I would love to have "real" projectors, I can't afford them yet
So if these will be as bright as the ones in there now, I'll be happy for a while

SkylineNXS · 02-09-2008, 07:35 AM

Hye spraybomb, can u tell me / all of us when u get those in, i would really like to know if the lens is glass or plastic, and if they look of good or at least acceptable quality, lol. For 33 bucks, for a pair, thats pretty blasted chep, and i have been wanting something like this for, well, since i bought my truck. I was originally gonna try and fashion some of my own since my sister drove her car into someone elses, and she had to get the headlights replaced, even though it was just mounting tab damage, but they have the nice projection lamps that i wanted...hope u get em soon, those look awesome...
