Who wants to make $50?

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Vivid LS

I am looking for a set of Grey sealed headlights that are in really good shape.

This is how you would make the $50. I send you my headlights which are in good shape and $50 plus enough to ship your headlights to me. You then send me your headlights in the box and the swap is complete.

I need this ASAP because the car goes to the body shop for paint work and I wanna have the Bezels painted to match. Let me know, but you must have the grey sealant and they need to be in really good shape. No cracks, pitting etc.

Or I would be willing to work something out if someone hasa set of angel eyes they want to get rid of that I can reopen again.

Thanks

So is it basically if you have the black sealant you cant get angel eyes? or is it other things too like hids etc?

Angel Eyes, Clear Corners and Painted Bezels

Posted by: BanginLS

I have a set of lights I no longer want. They are clear with angel eyes. I don't like the angel eyes anymore but they have a couple scratches. They are also dirty on the inside because of a hurricane that managed to drop water into the inside of the headlamp. If you decide to open the lamps, then you would be able to open them and clean them out. Also, the scratches LOOK minor and are able to be buffed out. What headlamps do you have now? If you have OEM headlamps without the orange corner, I have another set of lamps with the grey sealant that are original, with not pittings or scratches. The only way I will part with those is if I am getting a new set with clear corners.

You can try but the black sealant is super strong and is next to impossible to crack open. If you want angel eyes, etc. then you need a set w/ gray sealant.

Good luck!

I will be getting rid of the ones on my car with clear corners and angeleyes. I have an extra set of black bezels that I will put in and an extra set of ballasts that will go with them. I'm going to just stick with a cleared set.

^^^^^^^^^
what are the ballasts for? how much?

Posted by: Vivid LS

Alright some good offers. I just want a really good set of lights. If they have angel eyes, etc thats even better. If they are apart that is great as well cause I need to paint the bezels.

Who wants to do this.

Posted by: BanginLS

what i want to know is what condition ur lights are in? Are they stock lights, with or without corners? etc..

Posted by: Vivid LS

Stock Lights, no fogging car only has 25000 miles and it is a 2002. They do have the amber markers though.

Hmmmm... weren't you supposed to BUY my dual gauge pod with the installed gauges a couple months ago? Shame I never heard from you.

The ballasts light up the angeleyes. I have two extras , just incase a ballast goes out.

They have some pitting which is why I bought another set, but those have some pitting as well. I have 2 sets of painted bezels (HC) and 1 black set of bezels. I am just going to stick the black bezels into the angeleyes lights w/harnesses and sell them. Put a set of painted bezels in the other lights and put them in my car and be done with it. I'll take any offer.

Posted by: Vivid LS

Do you have any pics of the lenses. Sorry to be a pain, but I just want them to look good. It sounds like your set is the way to go, let me know around what you want for the set still opened so I can paint the bezels.

Posted by: 01lssport

You could always use your lenses if there in good shape.

Posted by: Vivid LS

Black Sealant, cant get them apart. What do you want for the setup. Also do they have the clear lenses or just the amber ones removed.

I'll trade for yours + $100. They dont have clear lenses yet... I can make a set if you want them. They are pre-wired to come on with the parking lights.

If your angeleyes don't have ballasts then there not CCFL's (new version, uses a fluorescent circle shaped light) they are DDE (old version, uses 2 little lights)

Posted by: mholhut

CCFL's don't have ballasts... they use power inverters

Posted by: 01lssport

My fault, got them mixed up.

They are also dirty on the inside because of a hurricane that managed to drop water into the inside of the headlamp.

What was the hurricane's name? Rita got water in mine.
