They look really good and at less than 1/2 of the CWest price.

Any one with experience with this copy light.

Those are pics of the actual C-west lights. I would ask them to email you pics of the lights that they offer. So you can get a better veiw of the qualty that they sell.

yeah, of course they look good. Those are real CWest kits. The kits that are being made aren't even done yet. The price is $520 BTW

Seeing as how the C-West are just off-the-shelf driving lights, with a CF housing and a molded lexan cover, I can't imagine that it would be any big trick to knock them off well for half the price.

First off its known that the C-West kit has worse lighting than the stock setup....which sucks too. Think about it, if there is a company offering the $1200 kit for $500......well logic should kick in at anytime.

You can buy a Rotary Extreme sleek light kit with HID for that kinda money.
The C-West light are useless IMO.
