Just got the black housing projector headlights in. I'll have em' in this weekend and hopefully have some pics up. I've got a silver 07 MCSS. I think they'll look bad ***. Don't wait for them to show up on ebay, go to sabersport's ebay store and order you a set nacho.

Well, since I already am modded, it's time to start going with the cosmetic side of things. Also helps that this deployment has almost payed off my car.

I just got some but I'm not sure where to wire the 'angel eyes'. And I don't know where to get H3 HID bulbs to work with my HID kit.

Those do compliment the black grill well...need a better side shot, but from what I can see, these look great on silver. IIRC, you have the gunmetal or black JH8's, and I'm sure that pulls it all together. Nice job!

Just to get mine done, I wired the halos to the parking light & gnd wires on the turn signal bulbs with wire taps. They're 'ON' with the fogs, parking lights, and headlights. I intend to put them on a switch, but just haven't had the time.

I'm also working on a mod to get the LED sidemarkers to blink inversely with the turn signal. I've got the schematic, just need to buy the relays & diodes and make it happen.

Keep in mind, guys...for those thinking about HIDs. The Halos are super white CCFL (fluorescent lights). There is no matching HID output for these. I have 4300k HIDs in the fogs, and they're not as white as the halos. If you have anything higher than 4300, the color difference will be drastic and you may want to consider wiring the halos on a switch so that they are not clashing with the HID output when they're on.

Stay tuned!

Holy crap this is what I've been waiting for! These would definitely tint well since theres no chrome housing. But honestly, I like them as is. Very nice find. I'm getting some.

How's everyone doing by the way? I've been pretty busy.

After looking at them a bit...these sort of take away from the aggressive look of the car, particularly at night. On the stock, the chrome housing has a flatness to the top of the circular part of the chrome housing kind of creating angry looking "eyes". Anyone know what I mean?

If anyone with a black monte gets these, please post pics and be sure to include a full shot of the entire car. Thanks in advance! By the way, they look awesome on the silver car...

I just finished installing mine w/ the5000k H3C HID bulbs. Man! Getting the HID's to work took the most time. The H3 bulb only has 1 wire, and the HID ballast has 2 wires. I had to test out what wires to tap into to get the HID bulbs to work. Turns out theres a group of 3 wires on the headlights, a sky blue,green and black. I had to tap into the green and black. At first it didnt work, but I switched the wires and then they worked! So whoever is about to install HID's, I just saved you an hour :wink:

Anyway, on to the garage pics.

Sorry for the dig-up but I just got some halos and you guys just wired the parking lights to the halos to get them to stay on.
