First time I've seen a Q45 headlight retrofit on a LS, and I must say that it looks quite different than the rest of the LS pack. Not particularly my cup of tea given the geometry of the LS headlamp with respect to that of the Q45 headlight configuration, but I'm sure it gets a lot of looks

Looks good.

I've seen one maybe two 98-00 around here with that swap.

Great work!!

IMHO, it would look awesome if you can retrofit some projectors onto the highbeam / DRL housing, and add a ring of angel eyes around it......

That looks great! I wonder if anyone has done a HID projector retrofit on a first gen LS, but I doubt it.. the headlight housing is so small, and the lens is not clear. I want to try doing it but I would want to do it on a spair set of headlights... they're too easy to break.
