    SOLD!!!!!

    This retrofit was done for a customer using used OEM headlights. After seeing the results - he loved the retrofit but was not happy with the clarity of the lenses so I made him a new set.

    Build:
    -used 2012+ OEM headlights = inside of the lenses are hazy from previous owner having HID kit that either ran too hot or blew inside the light
    -FXR 3"
    -Apollo shroud w/ WHITE halo
    -5000k Morimoto XB35 bulbs
    -brand new Morimoto 35W ballasts
    -brand new Morimoto wiring harness

    Normally this set up would run:
    $630 for the FXR retrofit + $110 for halos + $ cost of used or new headlights

    I'm offering this set for $850 shipped. Basically only charging $110 for the headlights and giving you free shipping!

    What happens if one of these lights burn out? For an OEM one I can just pop it out and put a new bulb in..

    If you look closely around the halo, you can see the haze.

    Does the haze affect the light output at all? Do you have any pictures of the projected light against a surface? Thanks!

    It may slightly but regardless, you'll see a significant increase in output over stock. I don't have any pictures of the output. The lights are at my machine shop in SoCal. I'm back in Portland working on the new shop...

    The lights would ship directly from SoCal via Fedex to buyer.

    $850 shipped takes it.
