wow blk986, nice pics, and thank you! They look great. Who makes them, and is it a DIY? I'm seriously interested in looking further into how you did yours. Chris

yeah, i agree. looks awesome. a buddy on here tried to help me polish it out, but like you said, we think it's the inside lens. so maybe the HID upgrade is the best solution. i think i saw a post on here of someone doing it as a DIY, but was it hard? any huge mods needed besides the actual housing?

I posted the details here:

Good luck. Let us know how they turn out.

So, I've have been reading old post on what to do with my old yellow headlights. I think that heating and pulling apart the units is possible. Who out there has done this, I would like to hear from you.

I did this project a year ago, and the headlights are still going strong.
