No, it was a one of a kind prototype that was created by ASP and sold/given to Wael (which has since been pasted around).

I wish someone would just post a how-to. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I prefer this style of lights and for them to work with HID is just ideal.

Neil,

Did you get a pair of those for your FD? Well, I think they are similar but Wael's lights are smaller and converted to be sleepy eye look. If the other unit uses smaller projectors and place them in same line, I would totally get it.

wael's kit is phat. a clone of this kit will be in the works for my fd after i get it running again. i think i'll go ahead and make a bezel from the factory headlight surround and possibly make a mold for it for those of you interested. it make take a little while for me to get around to it with a baby on the way, but i'll get it. once i get it done i may be interested in producing these kits for a group buy or something. seems like there is enough interest to make it worthwhile.

shout out to phil... thanks for all the help with the neverending project.

I found them...should I post the photos and end the speculations, thus unleashing a wave of pop up headlight resurgence, a renewed interest in this baffling yet childishly simple engineering marvel. So simple that it borders on stupidity...

Okay, okay...here you go. Please note the relationship of the black insulation material on the outer ring to that of the white key in the center.
