Default REAL HID projector fog lights

Hey guys i'm selling my HID projector fog lights. Its a custom made HID projector fog light setup. i will try to explain everything i did here.

The projector i used was a Pilot Halogen Projector that i converted into HID using a Mcculluch kit. What i'm setlling is everything you need to install it and hook it up to your car. Here's whats included

Mounting brackets and all screws and nuts
Mcculluch 5300k bulbs and ballast
Pilot Projector fog lights

Everything adds up to about little over 450. I'm selling everything here for 275. Everything is perfectly in working condition. Its still hooked up to my car right now. I will remove as soon as i find a buyer. The reason why i'm selling is because i'm a college student that needs money and i already have BMW E39 retrofit into my low beams and its already bright enough. I'm looking for local buyers because I want the person who buys it to see it in person before they make the purchase because it is a custom job. I don't want someone across the state to buy it and when it arrives ask why it doesn't look original. i want everyone to understand that its custom. These light up the road very nicely. One of the bulbs is about 1 month newer than the other and for some reason the newer bulb looks a little bit more blue. not very noticable unless i told you. I just want to make sure everything is clear with what i'm selling. They also have all the color change. I will show you and prove to you before you purchase. When you look at them and i point them up and down you will see them change color from white to blue. its very very nice. Please if you have any questions feel free to post up and i'll try to answer as soon as possible. I'm located in southern california area. 310 area code to be specific. I will meet you almost anywhere in the 310 area to show you these lights. I'm located 15 minutes South of LAX airport. I really don't want to ship these out of state. They aren't that heavy but are pretty fragile. so i really prefer instate/area pickup. if you have a relative that can come pick it up and send it to you thats fine.

Here is the webpage that inspired me to do
http://www.geocities.com/jvxdriver/h...conversion.htm
everything is the same as this webpage except i did not use his ghetto coke can. i used the one that came with the projector. Also his does not seem as bright as mine. Maybe its just his pictures. But mine honestly looks a bit brighter.
thanks

John

Just want to clerify one thing. This is a universale attachment. So it will attach to ANY car. all you have to do is mount 2 screws and the bracket and thats it.

sorry i only have 1 picture of it. as you can see it matches my E39 retrofit perfect. the camera in this picture is actually very precise with the color

well its a universale bracket that you just screw onto the bumper and the fog light hangs from the brackets. the 2nd gen is similar to the first gen. the stock fog lights are like this [ ] while this fog light is like this o so there is a gap around it as you can see in my picture.

no but i can describe what was done, the 9006 bulb was sanded down using a special precaution and shaped exactly like h3 the h3 base. the bulb was then fitted into the housing using a few rubber washers and tightly fit in place so that no water gets in. its pretty hard to describe but the first link at the top shows how the bulb was fitted though.
