    I have seen a lot of different posts about this.

    I’m looking to buy an extra set and would like to see some of the custom made ones out there.

    Post pics of your customs headlights for some ideas. :typing:

    Haven't you ever seen Close Encounters or Independence Day? MESO uses those to communicate with the aliens...

    It’s never fair when you post about a question on customization. It’s like a collage team doing a scrimmage game against a pro team.

    You don’t see me challenging Usain Bolt to a sprint do you?!

    I finally got my hands into a spare set to work on.

    Planning on going with dual projectors, demon eyes, meso trims, amber plastic pieces from no vtech guy.

    Not sure if want to upgrade factory projector (pretty happy with current output) and not sure if I should add some halos
