They look good Chris.
At 1st It tripped me out cause the lights on the left looked like they were screwed into cardboard or wood or something compaired to the ones on the right that were all Black ?
Then after reading I figured it out CF on Right Ole Skool AL on the Left ..

We're sending out our kits next week--Hella delayed their headlights in a big way and it's been a real pain on our customers. Our plan is to fully ship the orders we have and make sure that the installs go well. Once we've gathered all the feedback we'll set up a second run. Stay tuned!

I would say that a dremel with a few cut off wheels and a grinder bit would be good to have.... Unfortunately I did not take pictures of the install (Chris provides pictures in his installation manual).
I am hoping to take some pictures next weekend. I am definitely pleased with the outcome. I really look forward to seeing what else Chris comes out with

Hi everyone,
I'm really grateful to our initial customers for being so patient with the delays we experienced. The kits are arriving and installs are happening which is good. I've received some interest in when the next production run will happen, and we're hoping to do this in the next 4 weeks. It's important that we gather feedback and make tweaks so that new customers have an easier time with assembly and install.
I'll try to post something over the weekend!

just an idea, but would it be possible that you guys offer something like this that fits in a modified stock shroud to give it a sleepy eye look? I'm thinking cut a few inches out of the center of the stock shroud, bondo them together, and plasti-dip/flat black paint them, and then stick these lights in? Just something to chew on.

I don't sell anything but you get the idea.

David, I've been following your thread and that's what gave me the idea. I'm a college student so budget is always on the mind (although not enough to keep me from getting an FD). I love your custom kit, but I have a feeling it's going to be way too expensive for me, especially since I now need to rebuild my motor. Necessity is the mother of invention and I'm always trying to think of new things. I don't think anyone in town has the tools needed to make a custom shroud and I'm thinking that using two 60mm lights per side with a shroud similar, but smaller, would yield the desired effect.

I know Chris has worked on this idea (sleepy eye pop up) in the past but he ran into the issue I have been dealing with, bumpstop. What this means is with sleepy eyes, the headlights tend to bounce when you hit bumps which can be annoying. This is because the OEM rubber stop used to control this no longer works at the lower height. I have partially solved this problem thru the use of springs to hold the units tighter and under normal driving it works fine. On bumpy surface, not so much so I am looking at other solutions.
I'd love for Chris to take my idea and run with it and would offer up my shrouds for a mold or would hook him up with the shroud guy.

Do you know what the light pattern is for the mini Hella HID fog lights? I have a new set in a box that I never mounted intended to replace the oem set. What i'm wondering is if it is the same pattern as the low beam then regular lights would work but if it's the short wide beam then i'd proably still want HID low's.
