08 Hids

Are these going to be entire new headlights that we can retrofit into 05-07 , ie will the shape be the same. Any idea on $(price) or on looks as well as availability., I really like the look of the Saleen lights and they perform so well but the $ is just nuts for that

I am sure they will retrofit. Not sure on what they look like though. Ford tends to use HID low/Halogen high beams.

If you look at the montego, they have a round reflector split in half with the HID bulb in the lower half and the Halogen in the upper with slightly different shaped patterns. If they do it like that the 3D carbon splitters would rock

they would actually, I know the kind you are talking about. Im just hoping its not too major, to retrofit them. I also hope they do look decent and dont take much away from the look. Id prefer a HID HI/LO but what can ya do

No prices yet, even people ordering the 08's don't have the prices showing in CONCEPTS. Kevin should get parts prices in the very near future though, probably within a month.

well heres a 500 halogen unit:


and the montego hid unit:


Don't know if it has any relevence for the Mustang. But at its price point, I would expect a simple setup. Personally I like the halogen brights with hid lowbeams. The ones on my Euro SVTF were amazingly bright while the hid's didn't annoy anyone.
