Hrm now I can't decide whether I like the Black ones better on a white car or my original idea of painting them gloss white to match the paint. Well i do have a spare set so maybe I'll do both. Then decide which set to keep.

I think I just buggered one of the covers, tried to accelerate the line removal with a dremel. Not so nice!

Alan here's mine i made myself. Pic are a bit ordinary looks a lot lot better at night. There a pain to make (at least the first time) and you have to take the front bar on and off twice unless you can make them and install them before you need to drive again.

Thanks for the pics. I've done a few sets of low beam ones. Fabricating them is pretty easy. Its installing thats a pain. After i did my lowbeams i was pondering how i'd do the highbeams and gave up after i figured out i'd have to take the front bar off.

looks good rob, but i hope you not planning on using you high beams ever again. if you do the heat will stuff those leds

Yeh that’s the reason i went for the high beams because i don't use them much. I also didn't want to have to take the front bar off and lights apart every time i want to change a dead bulb so i went one step further. Mine are interchangeable with up to 4 colours and 8 led's per eye. I can take out any or all led's and just plug in a new one. So if i know i'm going to use the high beams i can take out the led's. Although, even though i can have the different colours i just put in all super bright white led's in and have them all running to make it brighter.

Yes the bolts look ugly but i couldn't find a glue that would work and nobody will see it.
