Thanks
Thanks

i dont think they are made for hids, it would be interesting to see the light output. i mean this stuff has been around for awhile on ebay, someone's gotta have it.

My thought exactly, it's gonna downgrade their name in the future. Pretty soon everyone will have cheap quality/cheap price JP stuff where to the point it's over played...I guess they gotta do what they have to, to survive in this tough economy...or they might go out of business if they same product they are selling can be found cheaper on eBay...Originally Posted by Mr Jokster
I'm surprised that JP would actually carry something so cheap! as in quality... Thought they only carried top notch sheeit?
Guys im really thinking of offereing a retro service , im really good with my hands and since i work at a Prosthetics Fabrication lab i have access to tools ,carbons, resins etc !
Im going to retro my own and post pics and stuff to start and see how demand , quality , etc go from there ....

"how do i do a headlight retro?"
i've started my headlight retro and was gonna either do the ls430 inners with the q45 outers but thinking bout the s2k inners maybe. just need new donor shells as ones i bought were fubared BUT i got the inner housing out atleast, and im gonna paint it black for my housing

they aren't but apparently they are upgradable....or if your creative like me you can fabricate something to hold the hid bulb in! no1 yet claiming fame to having it yet maybe they are embarrassed or don't want others to copy them. who knowsOriginally Posted by swat1727

it seems to be a cheaper route then buying genuine q45 projectors. just hope the light output is the same and would prefer to do them both in HIDS but im sure i could adapt them to be! plus would look neat to match the inners with the outers i think as MOST of us seem to love the look of the q45's. plus i got another idea for these if i get themOriginally Posted by Stage3
Looks interesting... I think...
These lights have been around for a while now, but the smaller versions came out later.
Almost 2 years ago, I showed these lights to Clifford at mobileHID.com and his upgrade kit plugs right in.
I have these lights and the OEM Q45 version in my possession.
I should probably take them both apart to identify any differences between the two, aside from the OEM version already being an HID.

yes please please do this....and as lexusondubs says a light output difference would be great. would give jarvis and i the info we need to decide if we wanna get them. u wanting to sell these lights and your OEM q45's? i'll probably take them both (u got inner and outer ones on the generic version?)Originally Posted by RMMGS4

do u have a link for that eliteauto? i tried goggling them but to no avail
eliteautostyle.com i emailed him waiting for responce so i can order the projectors , just the outters tho im not sure i want the inners, lol. i think a tsx projector as an inner would finish it off nicely

maybe so but the matching set of inners/outters would look nice. tsx would be OK but the bmw ones (i forgot which we've talked about them on here before) would be nice alsoOriginally Posted by LeXaNoMicS
