    One more question with FX-R stage 3 retrofit.

    When I get them from you is it just like installing the regular headlight? I saw in the group buy you said "FX-Rs are better quality but require free hand cutting of your light housing and a slightly more difficult aiming/securing process." Is that why they cost more or is that something I have to do once I get them?


    Thank you for all the help!

    If you look at the how to I wrote. They come exactly like that and it shows you exactly what you would need to do.

    Any way to put this reflector plate (not sure if that is the correct term) in the 2010 housing. Just wondering because I like the pattern better. Going to assume no since they are of diff mold but thought I would ask.

    Any 2010 pics out their?

    Click my signature for my build thread with more pictures. These things are SWEET. Love the output and I haven't even really gotten a chance to do a proper adjustment on them. Osram SVS bulbs are worth the extra cash,I especially like the fact that they are not super blue and are a "conservative" more useful 4200k. Can't wait to see how they look after they get some hours on them, the cut off color is sweeeet. The white HALO's are incredibly bright.

    Burt's packaging is also very thorough, no need to worry about damaged lights unless Fedex runs the box over.

    Sorry!! :stirthepot: They are well worth the cost, and wait. These things are better than my old factory HID's in my 370z. I love it! I don't know how I waited so long to get these done. :eek:

    I wish the 2010 headlights where the same shape.. I like these better than mine, I wish toyota had changed the grill and headlight shapes sooner.

    Still planning on getting a set, they look great!

    Do a "retrofit" of your front end. I thought about it. RAD did it and it looks badass.

    I am def going to research this, I have seen RAD's RAMF build but I did not realize it was a modded front end until you mentioned it!
