I have the clear halogens with Sylvania Silverstars in the high beam position. Granted they aren't litronics I don't have that amberish look from the standard H7 halogens anymore. Just something for you to consider.

Will Have Clear Headlights For Sale

I am going to have a set of clear headlights from a 2003, including the clear reflector triangles for sale next week. No scratches, no broken mounts and will include a complete HID kit as well. Replaced with Litronics and will be shipped in the box that they came in.

I did the retrofit to HID but the kit kept causing an error with the battery idiot light. I removed them but have since received a battery direct kit from the manufacturer which should eliminate the problem I was having. The rear of the headlights access panel has been drilled and a grommet installed to allow the wiring for the HID kit. I have since applied silicone to the wire holes on the grommets to seal it up. It is fine as- is or you could replace it with the one on your existing headlights. I have two extra grommets if you want to use the HID kit. I was planning to ask $600 plus shipping.

PM me if interested.
Warren

Maybe...not sure what the appropriate price would be. It does include a $200 HID kit (and the regular halogen bulbs) and clear triangles. For someone who would like all of those things it might be a good deal.

The shipping carton is pretty big and weighs about 30 lbs. I would expect there to be a significant variance in shipping depending on destination. In the end it will probably go on ebay.

Didnt factor in the HID kit, but I havent heard good things about them. Hows the beam pattern, brightness, and stuff like that?

I actually liked the light. The beam pattern and intensity were excellent. I would still be using them but got fed up with the electrical issues. I don't know if it is my car specifically or what but the first time they were lit it would zap my system and I would have to restart the car to clear the errors. After they were lit and the lamps heated it would not do it. Apparently the current draw was too much for the system. I tried switching the components around to see if there was a problem with a specific ballast, igniter or bulb. The system checked out fine.

The vendor sent me a different harness with a diode that helped but did not eliminate the problem. I contacted him about a separate battery harness with a relay to bypass the computer completely. He did not get back with me for awhile and I went ahead and ordered the litronics. I finally got the battery harness from him so I believe they could have been made to work.

When the litronics arrived there was damage to one of them and I am waiting for the replacement which has now been shipped and should be here next week.
