Pay attention Dereck. You know I have. LOL!

My primary concern right now is procurement of one more lamp housing. After that is the bracket, but even that's optional. My biggest installation concern will most likely be cutouts in the header panel for the HID bases.

Have you checked ebay for the other housing? There was one there a few weeks ago. Also, try www.car-parts.com there is always some there......

Why is the header cutouts a concern.....not much to do actually. I used a dremel to cut mine when I did the HID's in the AssassinVIIIor....VERY easy to do.

Hahahaha!!!! What a major brain fart I just had, It took me 10 minutes of searching LoL to find you JP, it is very rare I stray out of the TC forum or The Lounge but on one of the occasions that I did, I posted in the HID Tech Tip Thread just after you.

You will have to make allowences for a simple Englishman, I am gonna slope back to the TC forum now I feel safe there

Good Luck,

Thanks Sonny.

Derrick, you Englishmen are alright, even if you do drive on the wrong side of the road. lol!

Ray, thanks again, but I just can't win at eBay. The HID prices there lately have been nearly new price territory. They've also been rare on the salvage market.
