Default Nothing for OEM HID guys
permalink
I have searched and googled, and asked just about everyone i could think of, but does anyone know why they havnt made any nice aftermarket headlights that work with the factory HIDs and dont make me lose any of the features such as the self leveling?



If anyone has any links that can help send them my way, im looking for a set with angel eyes around both bezels.

because they don't really need too, if you wanna beef up your OEM set switch out the projectors to better ones.

+1 or buy the strips yourself and DIY the headlight by heating it in an oven to soften the glue.

Havoc2011 - Unfortunately aftermarket Halo projector headlights are made to work only on cars without factory HID headlights. Yes it is a little bit of a setback for those who want different headlights to get the Halo look or the Audi R8 style LED strip. You would have to retrofit and take apart your headlights.

aftermarket headlights are primarily made for vehicles that have OEM halogen headlights. The problem with making an aftermarket HID headlight to replace an OEM HID upgrade is the cost would be SUPER high. You will most likely not find any aftermarket company that manufactures HID headlights to replace OEM HID headlights.

You should re-read this thread. Havoc has nothing to do with the question you're answering.

This doesn't in the context of the OP and our replies?

I am not sure what is being answered. I'll assume OP got his answer and leave it be

I'm pretty sure flyryde does have some sort of guarantee. That and he does phenomenal work every time.

+1 flyryde was already given as one of the very first answers. Being that you are asking for an aftermarket feature, noone will guarantee you anything (look at the superlux issues for example). Warranty and guarantees are given by Hyundai and OEMs and I am sure you know none of those make angel eyes

(last part was for tsukuba and not you sam)

DCcustoms is another great retrofitter. He is quite popular among the jeep guys. If you are interested, take a look at his Facebook page which he updates quite regularly with pictures of his work:
