Never enough posted the style I like, I really don't care about what the lights look like as long as they produce a white light and are at least up to stock specs.

Herez what i would love to see. First off the most practical and closest look to OEM headlights is what a civic headlight has. I would love to have angel-eye. And im really not keen about the black mx3 headlight, i would like something over the projectors to cover and protect whats inside since a buddy of mine had the golf headlight with the 3 projectors and two of them were broken by stones that jumped up from the car in front.<p>So something with an angel-eye, cover and also signal lights based in the assembly too. :D

well, here's the deal.<p>IF we make angel eyes for it. They will be made like this, its not as great as the real thing, but it does the job, and will cut down on costs.

what would be cool is if you used the 9004 in the high beam and then the low beam you can rewire to have another cars HID system put in like a BMW or lexus. I'm not sure what bulb the hid system is though.

Well, Angel eyes or not, just try and push that design on the black car with the two separate projectors.<p>That way I don't have to fidle with my headlights anymore figuring out my best design for my HIDs.<p>I REALLY this goes through THIS time. A light pod would be great.<p>Fiberglass is perfect as well.<p>~A

A very crazy idea #3<p>With Hella units these would be waterproof as well.

They would get beaten bad over time and Hella sealed those lenses on GOOOOD eh?! :D So, not easy to replace.<p>A cover like the GTS clear covers, or a lexan/plexi cover would be awesome for this light idea.<p>That little light up in the corner would be awesome for a "flasher" on a bi-xenon. Just the size makes it appealing to me.<p>~A
