quite a bundle unfortunately , but definitely worth it. its been close to a year, so pardon me if the figures are slightly skewed. i believe for the projectors + ballasts it was about $600 or $700. the bulbs were about $120 i think (or however much the phillips ds2 ( i think thats what they're called) cost). i think i paid about $400 or so to have them installed, plus about $150 to have custom shrouds made, so all in all about $1300 at the least, but not more than $2000...i know that for sure. could've been as much as $1900, but definitely not $2000. but like i said it was definitely worth it...looks sweet and the difference in vision is incredible! they're so wide its ridiculous (they're the wide-beam LS)! ive had the standard bulbs, the slyvania silverstar ones, and phillips fake HID ones, and these are by far the brightest and best of all of them without a doubt! they're brighter, they dont fade nearly as much with distance, and they basically shine a full 180 degrees! when im going down the street there's a perfect HID cutoff on the houses on both sides! i love em

Put a small pure white led in the useless light that is next to your headlight to match.
