^ Try your luck on HIDplanet first, chances are you can get a set for around 130~140 shipped.

^ Thanks, I posted there. Although, after looking through recent posts in that forum it seems like the price has come up a bit recently. I've been seeing them go for $160-165, and even more on ebay. I found a set for $160 shipped in perfect condition, so I might just go ahead and grab those.

Charley if you don't much $$ to put into this project at the time, your best bet is finding a set of ECE lenses for those E46 projectors and using those...I've got a set on my 99 ES300 and they look great. My beam pattern is pretty sharp and has plenty of violet on the cuttoff

Did you ever find these? If I end up with those lenses from Henry you can still get my set if you like....I'll call him shortly and see where he is with them

I found a set, I just haven't committed to buying them yet. Let me know, maybe we can work something out.

Sorry Mike. I just got back from Texas less than an hour ago. Man I miss the 70 degree weather but I'm home now and its time to get the car detailed and ready for sale. If all goes to plan I should have the coupe in about 30 days.

All my mods are sitting around waiting haha. Look for my phone call sometime tomorrow. I'm trying to unwind especially after that crazy landing

Charley please post pics of the lenses and then the output shots of each. If you can, try to post them with the car parked in front of a white wall or garage from about 25 feet away so we can see whats wrong.

I still have the TSXs...I'm going to call Henry tomorrow and see where those lenses are. The last time we met he didn't have them with him. I'll be around this weekend. I'll let you know via PM what its looking like. As for price etc, I'm fine with what we talked about last time.
I just want them to go to a good home. My set's very unique

Hey Shaddow. I called him and am awaiting the status on the lenses. I'll check again later on today to see if he comes into the city. If he does I'll see if I can grab the lenses for you

tiguy99, thanks, but I got everything I need. Finally made the purchase last night. I already have the headlight housing. I'm currently waiting on TSX reflectors, Gen. 3 Ballasts, Phillips 85122+ bulbs, 9006 Harness, and 2.25" Chrome Bezel Trim Rings. Hopefully I can start this project in the next few weeks!
