I really want projectors and HID's, and I love the black housing and the halo....but I absolutely love how the parking lights are on the inside toward the grill on my car. I don't know what it is but I love the way the front end looks because of it. So for that reason I won't get aftermarket headlights until someone makes some that keep it that way.

I see what you mean. I didnt even think about it that way. I still have the issue of replacing factor parts. I want to leave it as OG as much.

Socal those look a little to Rice/Cheap. I searched ebay for about a month and finally found a set of 2010 OEM HID's for 500 shipped.

I bought a set of OEM HIDs and I am still working on the wiring.

Did you get yours installed? Any info to share?

Thanks,
Ed

I'm not sure if you have seen this video. It gives you a good look at what they look like on a car.

I don't get the three white lights under the turn signals.

I installed the Raxiom lights months ago and love them. The projectors improve lighting so much over the stock halogen reflectors that I haven't even considered changing to HIDs. I replaced the amber bulbs with high-power LEDs and wired them (along with the halos) to serve as daytime running lights using the Web Electrics kit (only $40). I have had countless compliments on the look.

Photos available?
Do you have a link for where you purchased the Raxiom lights?
Thank you

Dave,
You thinking of changing out the headlights?
I'mm a little disappointed to see the 2013's are going to get HID's......especially this close to the delivery of my 12.
Have you looked into replacing the bulbs with PIAA or some other hi-perf bulbs?

I know nothing about this subject, but the Boss headlights relative to my Bimmer's suck big time. I want stronger beams.

I haven't taken any photos but I'll try to get some over the next few days.

The Raxiom lights are the same ones shown in the American Muscle link by the OP. I paid $320 for mine from HIDGuy.net back in January.
