Default schweeet!

Now that's what i'm talkin about! I couldn't make myself pull the trigger on our current options. There's something about each one i don't like, but these look sweet! Gimme Gimme Gimme!

That's a really awesome setup (the japanese one). I think that would be the holy grail of aftermarket headlights that was holding most people back. Same lines of the C5, yet in a non-popup and elegant config.

EF-1: I think for $1700 for JUST the bucket and the lens, is waaaaaaay too much. Most people barely paid the $900 gp for the C5-r as is, and those lights look very similar to, if not identical. Except the projectors, but those aren't included anyway right?

$1700 would be for the whole set-up. Also, these are not comparable to teh C5R's....trust me.

Damn, I just can't picture paying more than $1000 for lights. Unless I come into some extra expendable cash, count me out for this. None-the-less, awesome lights.

These are great. However, as intimated above, it would be nice to see the retail cost brought down to a more reasonable realm. Great pics, and, thanks for sharing the info.

I think the c5 lights should have been like that from the factory. They look very nice IMO.
