    Come to a Tucson mod day, and we will do the BHLM with you! But to answer your question, I used the Depo brand housing/lenses when I did my HID retrofit and they still seem to be holding up quite well physically speaking. I can't speak to the output quality of them. Many recommend putting extra sealant though to keep moisture out (not that we have too much to worry about anyway).

    Definitely interested in a mod day, just don’t have a lot of money for mods to install other than diy’s.

    I have them, light output is pretty darn good of the price. Quality is good, seal them up with silicone to ensure they don't condensate

    Well if you wanna attempt the BHLM, I have a few cans of black spray paint you can use and then all you need is resealing glue (which I may have some left over from The Retrofit Source, but I'd have to look). New headlights is definitely easier, but the DIY process is pretty simple too.
