They look great. I can't wait to get mine. I wish there was a list on here so we all knew where we were in line.

Does anyone have pics of the angel eye option? Are they CCFL or LED (I cant find where it was mentioned earlier in the thread).
Thanks man! I think he said the angel eyes were ccfl

I'd buy it for that price.
What kind of warranty would be offered though?

Pmondo I wanted to ask you if you have the stock light harness or a hd one. I see no reason the stock one will not work just wondering.

I was joking when I said that.......obviously the retrofit is a steal of a price for th time and quality that was put into them.

They are running off the stock harness, its basically just being used to send the signal to trigger the relay to turn the lights on. The power then actually come from the power wire hooked to the battery off of the relay and through the harness that comes with the kit.
Hope that mess made sense^^^^^^^....lol

makes perfect sense. Basically this is how the upgraded harness / relays work you use your stock wiring to send a 12v signal to close a relay that is connected directly to your battery. So no need for any extra "kits" in fact if you have one take it out and sell it to some poor SOB that is stuck running the **** poor stock headlamps.

Nice I didn't realize it was that type of harness. When I did HIDs in my MazdaSpeed they drew the power from the stock wiring.

I am most definitely going to pull the trigger on a set of these. The ONLY thing I'm waiting for is to see some pics of them with the angel eye option so I know which way I want to go. But these will be on my rig in one form or another!
