Default FS/FT: Q45 projector retrofit - 2nd gen GS

Hey guys, as some of you may know I am the owner of the 2nd gen TL with the GS headlight conversion. I also had a Q45 projector retrofit done as well. I am looking to sell the H/L straight out for $500, or trade the headlights for a pair of NON-HID 2nd gen headlights in good condition +$300. You must cover all shipping costs. Now, I am not 100% sure as to whether or not these will mount up 100%, as the end tabs have been cut off. If you can't use the headlights at all, you will need to re-retrofit the headlights into new housings. The projectors have black silicon on the back of them. The retro was done by 'LittoDevil' off of HIDplanet.com. This setup will not come with any ballasts or bulbs. Cost me over $1100 to have this done. The retro was done in non-HID housings. One side can be aimed up and done with factory adjustment points, the other cant--I believe it needs to be put back on the track. Again, these might need some work in order to work 100%--but-the condition of the headlight housings are pretty much brand new (lenses). This is why I have set my price so low, just a little bit more than the projectors themselves you would cost. Call me at 732.586.0169 with any questions or simply send me a PM-- local buyers are preferred. Detailed pics will be posted by the end of the week, here is one to hold you over.

One more thing to add; the headlights are still on the car and will be removed either this weekend or next weekend at the latest.

It looks like I no longer need a set of headlights, I will confirm this over the weekend. Also, the headlights will be pulled from the car this weekend as well and pics will be posted at the same time.

I removed the headlights from the car today. The backs of the projectors are held steady with silicon, which you can see in the pictures. The only brackets that were modified are the lower holes on the inner portions of the headlights. I have shown pictures of the retros against a normal set of headlights for reference. On one of the headlights the little plastic mounting tab has been broke off, however I believe a screw can be used in its place. The headlights will need to be resealed as some condensation does appear after a thorough car wash. Other than that, these are in awesome shape. There are no scratches or anything on the lenses--look at the pics. No ballasts or bulbs are included---Price is $500USD firm plus paypal fees and shipping. IMO this price is a steal for someone who doesnt mind doing a little refresh work on them to be 100%. On to the pics------

^^nope, never took any shots of that. They will need to be realigned as they were pointed high for my car. Again, one side needs to be put back on the track, but the other adjusts fine with the adjustment screw the installer put in.
