I haven't used that putty stuff before, how does it hold up to vibrations in the car?
Good effort on your write up :)

In my early years with cars i used that stuff to repair a rust hole, lasted for as long as I had the car and AFAIK it's still going strong.
It's supposed to bond to metal etc and be just as hard.
When it dries it's like a rock.

Thanks for the comments.
I love the bright white colour of the light.

Can't get decent pics of the headlights with my phone :( This is just park lights with the jap bumper lights hooked up too.

Checking that my dodgy home headlight adjustment is ok.

High beam, GET OUTTA MY WAY!!!!!

It was then that I noticed just how crisp the focus was, I had a bit of impromptu shadow fun on the house across the road

Close up of the beam edge on the mazda, not the best example, but you can see the blue line where it cuts off.

Obviously the phone cam doesn't pick it up all that great, but it gives you an idea.
I'm loving the crisp, clean light and I'm looking forward to when I can actually try it on the road... SOON!!!

Anyone interested in purchasing this setup?
I'm going to go a different way again with my headlights.

Changing the look of the car, no longer going to have round lights which means these will be surplus.
I'll probably install projectors in the new headlights too and selling these will help fund that.
All up these cost me about $400.
I think one of the halo rings is no longer working but it may just be a wiring thing.
less than an hours use all up (i never drive the car let alone at night....)
so make me an offer :)

everything included, all you need to do is hook up +ve, -ve and plug them into your factory headlight plugs. Wire up the halos if you want but they look a little silly on a classic i reckon :P

Wiring is straight forward, they have an H4 fitting to plug into the factory plug, a +ve, a -ve and two wires for the angel eye which I will wire to the park light circuit.

I am going to be rewiring a little bit using different relays and HID headlight swicthes, so I haven't finished it yet. But when it's finished I'll take photos of the beams etc.
Thank you very much for the informative post. I have some confusion about the installation.
