I've been thinking about lights like this for a while. I have 2 reservations:

1. Are the in-expensive ($200 to $600) sets quality, do they stand the test of time?

2. I know the one's above (on Tslick's car) made by The Radio Flyer (forum member) are great quaity, but they carry a hefty price tag. There is a lot of R&D on these lights, so I am NOT knocking the price.....I'm just not sure I can justify the price to myself.

Let's see more pics!!!!

It's plug and play. 2 L-shaped brackets on each light, slight adjustment to get it flush with body.
I did these lights twice, had another brand before that I didn't really like. This install I unbolted the front bumper and did it unobstructed. Either way, if you can change a light bulb you should be able to do this mod.

I can do the light bulb thing, but unbolting the bumper, sounds dangereous for an ameteur like me...........I do like the look and the one's on fleabay go for about $225-$250.
I probably could get them installed for $150. I am liking the look more and more, would get the black one's since I have a black car.

If it's out it's because it's on the drag strip. My understanding is the lens gets small cracks in them from the sun. Mine has no wear since it's always in the garage.

2. I know the one's above (on Tslick's car) made by The Radio Flyer (forum member) are great quaity, but they carry a hefty price tag. There is a lot of R&D on these lights, so I am NOT knocking the price.....I'm just not sure I can justify the price to myself. I got what I wanted at the price point I could afford. Your mileage may vary.

Let's see more pics!!!!
There are plenty of members on this site that have the fixed headlights. I would expect to see them in this thread sooner or later.
