GB:FD3S Bi-Xenon HID Projector Headlights (almost ready to ship!)

*Please read this entire post, don't just look at the pretty pictures *

Sale is limited to the first six people who submit payment! Production of the lights is complete. Once we receive a pending order of bulbs (approx. two weeks) we'll be ready to ship!

The stock headlights on the RX-7 are vastly inadequate and potentially dangerous for night driving. Anyone who's taken a spirited drive on a curvy back road or a dark highway at night will agree. With the FD being very capable of high speeds, there is a strong possibility of missing hazards on the side of the road, up ahead, or around a corner. We decided to fix this problem once and for all. Our solution is the first and only plug and play bi-xenon projector headlight package designed specifically for the RX-7. Many of our customers have commented that our headlights were the best mod they've purchased for their car and some even consider it a safety mod!



Highlights:
  • New headlight housings, with bi-xenon (high/low) projectors
  • Optically clear projector lenses
  • New (OEM) Philips 4300K bulbs (5000k Morimoto with 50w ballast option)
  • High quality 35w weatherproofed ballast (50w ballasts also available)
  • Plug and play wiring harness specifically for the FD
  • OEM appearance
  • Could save the life of a deer, and or yours

We’re confident that this is currently the best performing lighting package available for the FD, from here to Japan… bar none! This setup is the standard against which other lights are currently judged. If you haven't seen our lights in action and you're on the fence, feel free to contact us and we'll try to find a customer local to you, who wouldn't mind giving a demonstration.


Our Projector HID kit is plug and play. Simply pop out your own lights, trim the headlight bucket, insert the new lights, and connect the harness.

  • OEM Phillips 4300k D2s bulbs
  • 35w weather proof ballasts
  • FD3S specific plug and play harness
  • Install manual
  • Less stressful night driving

Pricing($100 off retail) Coupon code below:

$875 (35w OEM), $895(50w Aftermarket)
NOTE: Optional FREE upgrade to 50w aftermarket ballasts for this sale

Submitting Payment:

Click the following link ----> Purchase Bi-xenon headlights

Production of the headlights is complete! We are currently waiting on a pending order of bulbs. We expect the bulbs to be in stock within the next two weeks. Remember the GB price is only valid for the first six orders, at which point the discount code will be void. If you are unable to submit full payment at this time please contact us via email at sales@sakebombgarage.com or via PM.

Once you have submitted payment please add your name to this thread. Don't hesitate to post any questions you may have here as well

Thanks,
Dan and Heath

Here's an old video of the lights functioning. Not a great demonstration but it gives you an idea of what to expect.

Maybe this will help make up your mind Their headlights look pretty cool, but I'm not sure how well they perform.

As promised....

These photos have not been edited in any way except to add exposure information in the bottom left of each shot. Just note the difference in beam width, throw and intensity. As you can see it's literally a night and day difference!


Low Beams







High Beams

Two sets left! Thanks to everyone who has already paid.

The bulbs arrived today, we just need to finalize a few things and we'll start getting orders out! We'll begin shipping early next week and not tomorrow as anticipated...Still much quicker than previous GB's

Thanks,
-Dan

Update!

We have begun shipping headlights! Anyone who has purchased lights should have received a tracking number via email

There are still three sets available and ready to ship at the GB pricing. We'll offer GB pricing until the end of next week (10/4) then the price returns to normal. Thanks to everyone who has already participated in this sale

You can still purchase them after next week, they'll just be $100 more expensive
Again it really depends if you're going for, looks or performance... I have no first hand experience with HWL/R-magic, but what I've been told by someone who's seen both setups, ours performs better. I'd love to do a side by side comparison test of various headlight packages using the same conditions/camera settings to help others make an informed decision. Our lights are designed to look OEM, some people don't want that look and that's fine. But we're more concerned with how the lights preform as opposed to how they look. I can see why you're having a tough time deciding though I've always liked the R-magic headlights.

I'm not much of a flip up headlight kinds guy, but your kit is sure grown on me to make my mind race now. As always your guys stuff is well thought out and put out top quality stuff. This would just add one more thing to the list.

I have this to get along with the duel oil coolers when I have some more cash... You'll be getting money from me soon.. just don't know how soon it'll be..

Keep up the great work!!!

Sometimes life gets in the way of buying the things you want unfortunately. Hopefully we still have headlights in stock when you're ready. We only have a few sets left and we're unsure when we'll be able to secure more headlight housings.

Are these completely plug-n-play? No cutting, drilling, completely reversible? TIA

They also provide excellent customer service. I was having some issues with the relay box and the driver's side ballast, and they sent me a new wiring harness and balast free of charge! Definitely above and beyond. Lights work beautifully now. Thanks!

Just have to clearance the headlight bucket a little bit to clear the new bulbs and connector for the light. If you do it nicely, you'd never know it wasnt always that way. You dont have to remove that much even though I've seen some people really take a lot of material out.

You're very welcome. Good to hear everything is working properly now

Jason
As Jason said you have to trim the composite bucket slightly to clear the bulb connector. The install is completely reversible since the portion of the bucket that gets trimmed doesn't prevent the stock headlights from being reinstalled.

Also we normally run GB's and you have to wait a few months for us to build and ship the headlights. We currently have them in stock and ready to ship! Thanks again guys for the the kind words

Why you need proper lights Our lights cover nearly 5 lanes wide on the highway and will let you see for light years in front of you on the backroads with high beams. If you're driving (especially if you're driving fast) you can't afford to not see where you are going. It's nearly impossible to out-drive these headlights
