So if I send you guys my 3GS headlights you can put in the cool led (Audi look alikes) in them and send them back to me. Is this what you are advertising, because I'm super busy and have no time to diy it myself.. What would the damage$$ be? I'm pretty sure everyone would like to see some of the work you guys abbé done in the past also

Also, would you loose your high beam function if this retrofit is done?

Opening headlights is NOTHING new to me either, I’ve done plenty of Lexus, Honda, Mercedes, BMW lights before and they all turned out great. However the 3GS lights are unique in their construction and now that we have a set out on the bench, I can tell you it’s very difficult.
Stay tuned for updates but so far it’s been one very time consuming job to remove the lights, then remove all the associated hardware, bulbs, ballast and screws to pull the headlight apart. We are prepping it for baking next in the oven!
This is some lights we’ve done:

this looks good! if the price is right id be willing to pay for this aswell. i think leds would look great on the 3gs if done correctly. i agree with you on here, alot of people like things that i dislike and people also hate things i think look real good. everyone has their own taste and vision of what their car can look like.
