On another note, does this mean a fogless grill that will fit the GT lower facia???

Isn't it strange that Ford would redesign the headlight reflector assembly for '07 and then come out with HID's in '08 (unless the '07 reflectors will still be standard with the HID's optional). Doesn't make sense why Ford would have a 1-year-only headlight design for '07. What was wrong with the ones on the '05 & '06's?

the saleen HIDs use the OEM ford buckets - the lenses on mine have FORD stamps on them so it would be logical that if Ford offered HIDs, it would be the Saleen system.
Look at the bottom right corner of the saleens. its hard to see, but it is there.
by the way, they are awesome.

I actually saw the 2008 headlights this afternoon in Dearborn. Not only are they HID, but they are slightly different in design as well. The basic overall shape is the same but they had a new, silver looking insert on the insides, around the light. Honestly, I don't know how to describe it, but they are definitely different. Actually they looked identical to the pics of the saleen headlights above.

regardless, for a retrofit you'd need to order whole new headlight housings/buckets, not just the inerds...

That just looks tacky. Definitely doesn't belong on a Mustang.
