Both were 90mm Hella Projectors, they make one specifically for the HID beam pattern and one for high beams... You can find them from Susquehana Motorsports or something like that.... just search for it, or check out that link earlier in this thread, it'll tell you where to get the parts... For those of you who want to do this though, BE WARNED... You WILL hack the living **** out of the rotating headlamp assmblies! lol and breath in lots of little metal shavings...

well the front bird lights up because it's a refelctive decal... when direct light flashes on it at night, it looks like it's glowing white...

Here's the write up on how to do the HIDs
