Default interestign light on SC

this one place
http://www.v-vision.jp
is making HID headlights using new hi powered LED technology, like in the new flashlights and lightbulds.

this pics is of their SC light while on, I think I can barley make out what looks like the angel eye ring around the bluish lense but it's not turned on..?

Do you know how much they're asking for these lights? The 7 beam projector is extremely difficult to make. I've been looking into having these lights made for some time now. They'll probably be $500+ easily, but the quality of the light doesn't look that good.

maybe it is just me, but it looks like bug eyes and is a little bit ugly IMO.

Maybe it'll grow on me...

I'd like to see a shot of it at night. But it looks awfully blue. . . It seems like it would look better up close yet it would compromise the quality of light output. I'm still interested. More info please!?

I think these are the infamous Q45 "Gattling Gun" lights retro'd into the GS housings....

You can use

to translate the webpage.

Quite honestly, I don't see how leds can match the sharp cutoff and distance of HIDs.
