Default Anyone do HID/LED low/high beam retros?

Been looking around for someone that does hid/led retrofits for the ws6 pop up lights, haven't found crap yet
Want to find someone that can do them like I had done with my old stang. Haven't heard back from the guy that did them though, and he charged an arm and a leg for em.



Anyway, if anyone knows of someone who does it, i'd appreciate a pointer!

I'll definitely do that, do you know what their prices usually run?

Yeah. Lots of custom fab work to make it work right.

Yeah, I understand where the high price comes from.

Always a shock when I see it regardless though. Lol

The Bixenon setup to replace the low beam is much cheaper. There is a GP posted in this section and the Group Purchase area as well.

Yeah I ended up reading the descriptions a bit more last night and figured I'd get the bixenon one instead. So that's really not tooo expensive. Still a pretty penny but well worth it imo.

If you want the power of the sun for your headlights put bixenon in bow low and high beam locations
