Screenlights is a new product being offered to the aftermarket show scene, offering something different than anyone else has, and almost guarenteeing you a victory in a show. What better way to win your show than by having TV's in your headlights! Yea, I said TV's in your headlights. This allows you to keep drivabilaty, but in most cases you will lose your hi-beams. Check back soon for more information, website is still under construction but will be completed soon!


How can you go wrong? I mean the image is such high quality. Next thing you know they will make wheels that glow in the dark. Oh wait.....

What would be a better idea would be to put projectors in there.... I mean real projectors. You could show a movie on your own drive-in. And if you need highbeams, turn the a/v off and let it emit white light... Except the bulbs would die far too often and the projector would melt under the hood.

On a more serious note... Who is going to want to watch tv on a 5 inch screen...

The same idiot that would buy the chrome housing projector headlights is the same one that would buy this.








The same idiot would have horrible alignment issues with the front end fittment

I'm thinking of projecting 3D holograms. Now that's P.I.M.P.

Coincidence that the only screenshots they show are of hip-hop videos???!!!

Some of the gaudiest cars I have ever seen are in hip-hop videos! I hate being a fan of the music and watching a video while cringing at the sites of some of these horrid wrecks on wheels!
