These are some real hid projector headlights I built for my Scout and im in the process of building some for other vehicles as well. These suckers are about 4 times brighter than factory and have ballast that plug into factory wiring harness and use stock hi/lo switch on the floor. Also have a compact florescent angel eye park light

Please move your thread to the "parts for sale" sub-forum.

This a commercial forum that exists to support the business/customer service-side of ihon.
 
Oops sorry about that I was just tryin to get an idea of if people would be interested and since they were hand fabbed I put em here.

I understand! I'll move it for you.

I know there are folks interested in this deal, but we do have to watch out for the legal-begal side of stuff like this also. Since in tejas yawl must do the "safety inspection" thing, mods such as this can create issues for folks when that time of the year rolls around.

Thanks for understanding our position!
 
Yeah we do have that. I checked everything out and they say they will pass inspection due to the high/low beam function park light function and since they are 6000k which is just white and legal. Though they are built from dot approved components I cant call them dot approved as a whole of course. They are also fully adjustable like the stock bulbs since they go right into the stock buckets. Oh and as a plus for visual inspection the glass lenses show dot approved on them.

I luv workarounds!

I was involved with the launch of the texas I&m smog program (tied to vehicle safety inspection) in 1989/90, and an "inspector" for many years. And I know that the local troopers who oversee inspection stations in the various regions have a god-complex when it comes to stuff like this!

I conducted several training sessions for troopers regarding the launch of the I&m program,...at the end of the first hour of a six hour program, all 25 of 'em in the room had a different "take" on the program, and all 25 let us know that in their respective regions, they were the law, and not some shit written in the enabling legislation!

You shoulda been there when the program launched and the texas dept. Of public safety initiated their "mystery shopper" program to sting inspection stations, since the legislature in their infinite wisdom provided no start-up funding, the dps decided to fund the program with fines in the $20k range for first offense!
 
They still do the mystery shopper program due to all the illegals running alot of the shops that will put a sticker on a toaster with wheels for a hundred bucks. Yeah they all have the god complex. Everyone here knows a trooper would give his mother a ticket on her birthday. I live on the country outskirts about an hour outside houston so we have more troopers than anything. Never been pulled over in the Scout though most cops are too busy starin to realize I have no side mirrors or to even clock the speed haha
 
Ok so the entire kit is $350 ready to drop in. You wont find anything anywhere near that price for real projector hid lights.

So why would the hid's not pass an inspection here in tejas? Those things are on everything nowadays. Maybe I just missed something in the thread...
 
Mainly just due to the fact that its considered custom since they are built from separate components that separately are approved but as a whole unless they are reviewed and approved by the dot technically they wont pass. But as I said earlier in the thread the bulbs say dot approved on the glass and dont look hand built so the chances of not passing is very doubtful. Especially since it works with the factory switched and has hi/low beams
