had a local shop tint them. they use some sort of film like for windows but thicker and stronger. not to bad at night, but mine is not a daily driver.

im curious to know how they were able to put a "film" on your headlights with the shape of them, and with the alignment dimples. i would think, even a process involving like heat shrinkable tint would still crease around the parts that arent flat.

they actually cut around the dimples. they did use heat gun and took about an hour to work them. they look great now, they may look crappy in 2 day or 2 weeks. will update.

Id like to pick up a set of projectors and have them tinted...

Projectors = bad.. At least the ones available for Mustangs. :/

Ting looks good. I'll be interested to see how they look after they've taken some road abuse. I can't imagine that a film will be able to take much abuse, but if it is a vinyl it may hold up pretty well.... Who knows?

You'll have to send me a write-up on how you assembled them. Is there enough room for 9007 bulbs or do you have to use 9006?

I agree, and how did you go about making the square in the housing?

the fogs are envoy fogs. they fit the hole perfectly and plug in to the stock harness, but you have to make a bracket to hold them in place.

the projectors are from an acura tl so they're running d2s bulbs. there's no square cut in the back, just a hole to slide the projector through at the correct angle. The projector housing is black so i guess thats the reflection in the pic that makes it seem like a square. in person though, it looks very oem. i had a writeup for it but the pictures were all hosted on aol hometown and now that's down. i had them on my server but as luck would have it, that's down too :(
i'm contemplating selling them too so if any of you guys are interested...ahemm :)
