I think it looks great.... waiting on some rockblocker and then the eyelids will go on and it will be even more sexy! Don't mind the trashed lip, crappy front-end paint, and winter wheels.

Crappy night shots! WOOOHOOOO

Light output blows the EDMs out of the water. I do like the look of the EDMs more, but the light from these is incredible.

I think they will look pretty rad with eyelids too.

They look sick. Very clean. Ceasar at lightwerkz is the man. Mind sharing how much they set you back?

$1260. That includes new headlight housings, the projectors, bulbs and ballast. You can cut the price down if you provide your own stuff.

Might wanna keep the receipt incase something happens for insurance purposes...

Thanks for the advice.

Looking good. What grill is that?

I still haven't aimed my Driver side head light, I had some issues with it, and my garage is under 6 feet of snow.
WhiteFox 02-28-2007 09:48 PM

what projectors?

My drivers side headlight is very low. The grill is GEN-U-INE JAY-DEE-EM STI BAYBEEEEEEE

[QUOTE=WhiteFox;17216549]what projectors?[/QUOTE]

Infinity FX45 I believe.
steverx05 02-28-2007 10:20 PM

Lights look AMAZING and I love how the shrouds accent your car color too :) Glad you got them all wired up...can't wait to see some night shots!
dtseng01 02-28-2007 10:24 PM

Your car is looking deep into my soul... I feel like I won't be able to escape it's leer!
golf97 02-28-2007 10:30 PM

Should look money with the lids on!
LightWerkz 02-28-2007 10:35 PM

Looks amazing! The one time I paint the shrouds because I needed to, actually turned out to be a very good choice since they match with the color of your car!

These are hybrid projectors, infiniti fx35/45 projectors with acura tsx clear lens swap for more color :)

What do the shrouds look like unpainted? Also, has anyone ordered this retrofit without blacking out the headlights? If so, pics anytime soon?

Thanks,

I think mine looks best.
bostonride 03-01-2007 12:48 PM

You can think whatever you want. :p

I really love the offset of the chrome housing with the line of the car. I have had more compliments on these lights than any other upgrade done to any of my cars, the best one, my cheap friend said he could justify $1300 for these lights. The guy doesn't even by soda when we go out to eat.

Caesar has my congratulations again.
explosivexover 03-01-2007 01:02 PM

Like I've said many times...Caesar is the King of Headlights. Looks like he has gotten another satisfied customer.

Hey Caesar, I'm still thinking about sending my lights back to you for a retrofit job.

Capt Crunch, If you live in Fairfax, I'd love to check out the lights at night.
sevendhappy 03-01-2007 01:05 PM

Lights look good! Night shots please. :) Good job once again Caesar! :banana:

Thanks for the pics... Did the rest of the housing come painted black already or did you have to pay extra for that? I have a PSM as well, and I was seeing if someone is doing the retrofit with the original housing color (chrome/silver) with the chrome/unpainted shrouds. Also, how hard was it to wire up? I'm not familiar with the details on how plug-n-play this is.

Thanks,
ScreaminFast 03-01-2007 01:50 PM

Those look great Capn...I've been thinking of replacing my morettes for a while now, so these are an option also!
Capt Crunch 03-01-2007 08:57 PM

bump for night pictures in first post
LightWerkz 03-01-2007 09:10 PM

here is alittle better pic of the cutoff on these badboys from my buddy Dave.

WRBLueGD2 03-01-2007 09:52 PM

I think they look just fine. Not like the APC ones you buy a Walmamart or something...
atom945 03-02-2007 10:19 AM

how much is this priced at?
100_Percent_Juice 03-02-2007 10:34 AM

I love the light pattern those throw out. I totally prefer the chrome shrouds look over them being painted.
Chapel 03-02-2007 10:46 AM

damn
If I can sell my laptop and my DVcam, I'm getting these

You don't have to get the housing painted black, you should ask LightWerkz. I don't think any PSM guy has what you're asking because I'm the second guy to get these.

As for wiring these in, I'm a giant electrical noooooob and with the help of another guy I figured it out. It's not hard. I'll write up a diagram when I have time.

[QUOTE=atom945;17233594]how much is this priced at?[/QUOTE]

I think I paid $1260. That was with everything including bulbs and ballast. No harness.

[QUOTE=100_Percent_Juice;17233783]I love the light pattern those throw out. I totally prefer the chrome shrouds look over them being painted.[/QUOTE]

I think chrome looks better when the headlights are by themselves, but on my car I think I'd prefer the silver.
bostonride 03-02-2007 02:25 PM

How did you end up wiring these in?
blackxice 03-05-2007 04:53 AM

please tell us how to wire those in. what you needed to buy and whatnot. thanks.

[QUOTE=blackxice;17258613]please tell us how to wire those in. what you needed to buy and whatnot. thanks.[/QUOTE]

I made a wiring diagram and wrote up install instructions with pictures. LightWerkz has them available for customers with this retrofit. Just ask for them when you get your lights retrofitted:)

Any pics of the non-blacked out style with the retrofit installed on a car?
ASpec818 03-05-2007 11:15 PM

nice!
Hank3 03-06-2007 08:57 AM

Were you on uneven pavement when taking that night wall shot? The beams seem a bit off. And it looks like the cutoff is more green/blue than purple.
LightWerkz 03-06-2007 09:59 AM

seems like a combination of a bad camera and the beam patterns not fully aligned. The passenger side needs to come up to match the drivers side..
sevendhappy 03-06-2007 10:12 AM

I think the cutoff looks shweet. :D Needs another pic though of the hi-beams flipped on.



...hmmm...maybe I should send in my old stockers just lying around and then sell my sti's. Muhahaha! :eek: :devil: LOL!

The cutoff is super purple/blue... it just looks like crap in that picture because it's taken against wood.

The drivers side is a bit high... I need to lower it a tad.

Better pictures on the way, my dad hosted them and he just needs to give me the URL.
