Default C6 style headlight for TA's??

Well I think that conversion kit for TA fixed headlights doesn't look so great. So I'm thinking about doing one that is more based off the C6 looks. I would like to have a HID option that would cost the same or less than the current kit out there. What do you guys think??

this has been brought up a few times but no one ever comes through. I say do it, but if your really considering it then continue to post. Otherwise just hop on one of the many threads thats already got photo chops of things like C6 lights scattered everywhere. We see "im gonna do this cool thing" and then over a year later still no results...it gets frustrating if ya know what i mean. Goodluck to you either way

Well I work at a bank in downtown Seattle but am looking to open a shop of my own... You meet a lot of great people in banking!! The place by my work that I take care of does short and long production lines of almost anything. I will have them make the casing and the lens. After that I can have the bezel painted any color like matching factory or satin black... Another nice surprise yesterday was my boss saying "how much $$ you need?" so I may have someone to pay for the up front tooling and design! That way all I need is a commitment for X # of orders to begin rather than be like "send me $ then I'll make them". I want to have a finished product to ship out when $ is recieved. I've got other ideas for other products and am open to suggestions.

They look good but I want the inside to look a little more like the C6.

I'm calling Sylvania for the lighting as I would like to run the same set up as the C6. So the center will be the HID projector, inside will be a H9 halogen, and the outer will be a smaller marker light.

Well I met w/ the company that I want to have make the molded bezel, housing, lens, and brackets. Looks like it will be pretty spendy but I am going to meet w/ him again next week after I get detailed pics & measurements. I will keep all updated as I find out more information. Also let me know if you guys have any suggestions or ideas.

Jason
