Wow, welcome to last year, ...
IBTL!






(Sorry, ..., Yes, it's probably new to you, but there's also a dozen threads about it over the last couple years or more. It's simply an advertising ploy. And it works, because it gets noticed.)

I keep them in my ebay store at that price to attract attention to my store, it works - I don't want to sell them.

You could get these, they are pretty similar. Octane Motorsport makes them.

No need to mod the hood for those of Octane Motorsport though, it's just a Swap'n plug. I personally like the fact of not having any headlamps on my car, it looks great when they aren't poped up
