For what it's worth the lady on the phone said MSRP was $302 for the heated and $222 for the non heated, per unit. Of course that is before any retailers mark up.

The current version is selling readily available at $225/piece, but if you look hard enough you can find them for $175/piece.

They used to be over $900/pair when they first hit the market. Glad to see they've dropped

I'm honestly wondering though if prices are going down to try and get rid of the current model to make room for the new stuff?

Yeah, I remember that. Also glad that they are much more attainable now, even if they still are a little pricey. It comes to a point where the cost is worth it to never have to hassle with halogen again.

We bought my wife a 2011 Pathfinder last week. I took it for a test drive after work, so it was dark. First thing I noticed was "Man, these lights aren't nearly as good as mine."

I tried looking for that same set on eBay that XJWonders and wizardpc have, but I can't seem to find them. I was told the seller/brand was 'Firebug' and when you search for their product it looks nothing like those. Do you by chance remember when/where you got yours from?

Note: you will have to either modify the bucket or cooling fins to fit. These are "deeper" than a stock headlight.

Yes there is lots of grinding involved.
