    1G pop-up HIDS! limited edition headlights from Lat 42

    UPDATE: 5/22/2012



    Ok, I should probably start with the best part, pictures.







    These are old pictures from my first prototype. The finished product is still in development, but it'll look and fit much better. I posted up these pictures to give an idea what the finished product will look like.

    here's some more info for anyone that's interested.

    This isn’t a product you can install yourself. The mounting bracket for the H4666 sealed beam is riveted in place. Converting to projectors requires drilling out the old rivets and installing a new bracket with special rivets (and a pricey riveting tool that I bought for this).
    You’ll have to send me your headlights – the whole motor and assembly – and I will convert them. You pay shipping one way and I’ll send them back. It will take me a week at the most to do the conversion, so with ship time expect to be headlight-less for at least two weeks. If it’s your daily driver I may do a core service.

    The cost to have your headlights converted is $600. If you think that's too expensive you need to have your head checked, because a lot goes into this conversion.

    The lights will come back ready to be installed – just plug them in and they’ll function like stock. changing a bulb will be even easier. They’ll have Hella 60mm high and low projector modules, 9005 bulb on the high beam and 4300k HIDs on the low beam. They’ll be set up and aimed for use on US roads, but as with any aftermarket light, this is not street legal.

    I'm calling these a limited edition because I'm only making 10 of them. One set is for me, so that means only 9 other lucky guys will have these lights on their 3S. If you’d like to buy a set, please PM me your name and email address and I’ll add you to the list. I know people will back out, so don’t worry if you’re not one of the first 9. There will be a wait list. Please only put your name on the list if you’re serious and have the money set aside. I will start accepting payments in December and begin converting lights over the following months. Feel free to ask questions if there's anything I didn't cover!

    Thanks for the interest and support everyone,
