How much should I pay for headlights?

Ok so I've decided to not do the BHLM because I still dont like the thought of putting my HD in the oven....

So how much do you think I should pay for JDM HL? no HiDs

 

they are jdm style, i would not buy them, see if someone neer you will help you out, i won't don't it either so i know how you feel, but my 09 are dark from the factory.

 

Are JDM bad? Yeah Paul(lifesaflaw123) was thinking about doing it to but he is in the same boat as me(doesnt want to put his HL in the oven).

 

jdm is japenese something something, those lights are jdm style, the real thing is high quality. i would atleast try it or find someone to help you.

 

Wait the Stockies are JDM?

 

haha I dont know what that means either... Bad buy?

 

they are just some cheap headlights that are made in china and they sell them as jdm style just like all the parts for the honda's, they think they are jdm but they are just crap.

 

I'm going to tackle mine this week. I'll let you know how it goes.

 

Go to the junkyard & get some lights from a Tacoma. Then try the oven deal with those lights. If it doesn't work you are only out a few bucks. If it does then you can do your set, & sell one of the sets.

 

JDM stands for Japanese Domestic Market. Meaning, the parts are made from Japan fitting there requirements by law and also looks (the black headlights). This is why they are called JDM style, because they look like them. I personally would not buy them. I have heard of condensation and horrible light output pattern.

 

It honestly isn't hard to do. I've done so many lights I've lost count lol, but seriously take your time and you'll have no problem.

 

Yeah please do. Since everyone told me it was bad idea to get the JDMs. Ill do it the gutsy way

 

Yeah people have said(that did the BHLM) that if you just go slow and follow the tutorial exactly... you wont have any issue. But i think i will buy a cheapy and work on that one. Steve found a guy on TN that does BHLM and sells them.

 

We just did like 3 or 4 BHLM's this past weekend! In Drifter's oven!

Or maybe just 2... but you get the point.

 

haha why? ........Send me a set? I will send you my stock set

 

well damn!!!

I wish I knew about the JDM BEFORE I bought them off ebay! They should arrive this week.

 

There still fine. Just put a little more silicone around the outside---stopping condensation

 

Thanks man...that's a good tip.

That leaves me to ask a follow up question.
If they're still fine and all that needs to be done is add a little silicone....why does everyone make them sound so bad?

 

Im not sure about that. But i assume its because its a Japanese product and manufactured under there own laws(not as strict). Some people have the JDM HiDs and the regular JDMs and all they did(what i said) was put a little more silicone caulking(?) around the edges
