has anyone done this headlight conversion??
hey guys...has anyone (im sure they have) gone to the CW style headlight conversion where you had to splice the headlight wires into the new headlights??...it sounds pretty easy...but im just wondering how it went for others because i am thinking about getting them...and if they are a good fit or what

I have the C West lights on my car. Fitment is not exactly perfect but it is good enough. No gaps but the front of the headlight is not sitting flush with the front bumper. As for wiring I wouldn't advise you to do it yourself unless you are a trained electrician. I got my mechanic to do it and I got a headache just looking at him do it. A lot of rewiring to be done and not forgetting it is a 10 year old car, it was natural somethings broke while installing the kit. Get a good workshop to do it. Console yourself on the price, I bought mine for around US$1600 a year back when there weren't any knock offs and I had to order direct from Japan

so that price is w/o the lights...anyone know what the lights cost? I think I'd go with the Rotary extreme since they'd be about the same price once you purchase the lights. I think the c-west looks a touch cheesy

If you really are an electrician, wiring should be the least of your worries.
EDIT: DOH! Jim already on it.

Hmmm, if you buy them on ebay, they are cheaper and come with lights.
