    What lights are people using in the circled area. Guess I never realized they are exposed. Looking for something clean. This is my first retrofit and I’m being pretty basic to start. Gotta build up the confidence

    Glass amber bulb. Find the LED 194 bulbs don’t last long.

    Do they come with the projector drivers or what ever needed to run them between high and low? Post more pics fixing to order stuff to build a set out of my second set of lights

    yes they come with the solenoid to run the high/low part of the projector. the bulb they take is an H1 which is only a single beam style bulb. so you would have to buy a set of H1 HID's with ballasts and all that stuff to make them work.

    I ordered some similar off eBay. Says they take a h4 bulb so I guess I’ll wire up the high beam function since I have hi and low beam leds now

    Edit: just finished baking mine apart to paint them so the paint can cure while I wait for projectors to come in
