For the lower 48 states, it's $400/shipped.

For our international friends, shipping costs will be determined based on your location. You will have to wire the money as the seller does not accept paypal from international buyers. It's $400 plus shipping.

For local buyers, I will provide you with the address and phone number where you can pick up the lights. It's $370 cash.

Read the below very carefully.

You must indicate this reference code "group buy - nsxtacy168" to receive this group buy rate. You must also indicate what type of HID bulb you want (4300K, 6000K, or 8000K).

I recommend the 6000K bulb. I highly recommend professional installation, not for amateurs.

It's first come, first serve.
Sorry for my late reply. Been busy these last few weeks.
I have talked to the seller and I'm getting the headlights from ebay.
I don't have the time to wire the money and it's little more complicated to wire money outside Europe(have to visit the bank that closes really early and fill in some papers).

Thanks for all the help nsxtacy168! I'm getting the headlights just through ebay/paypal instead.

I think technically you do, but I also think all that may be needed is to move the bumper forward just enough to get access to the bolts that hold the headlamp in place so that you can exchange the headlamp unit....not convinced that a full R&R of the bumper is necessary..........the electrical is just one connector so that is a no brainer....seeking other opinions out there....I'm sure that it can be done with a complete removal and reinstall of the bumper and technically that is what should be done according to the "book"....

Theres one bolt that is very hard to get too, I took a long look at it. The other bolts are easy as can be its just the one holding me up.. I even went through the wheel well to try to access it no go so far some is different about this blot there some sorta ratchet wheel or something near it. Even with this bolt gone I am not sure the lights will clear the bumper to take them out.

After I check out that DIY, I am sure I can't do it by myself, and make me feel better to pay some to do it for me. Thanks for the link.

The pics are great but none show the function of the inside reflector lens. When do these come on? The outside lenses are bixenon. The inside are brights only?

I took the one for the team, the above PDF file that someone posted works. I got the passenger light done with help from my wife a little over a hour with 2 smoke breaks and a beer.

So what actually did you remove? Did you have to take that tough bolt that you were talking about?

Looking good there Louie. The front plate gotta go though.

Sure beats the OEM halogens right?

I pretty much followed the above link that was posted, but I was already half way there before I saw that link. The bumper does have to be pulled forward as you see in the pics. Thats where you can gain access to the 3rd bolt I was talking about.

I never worked on cars before in my life, if you follow those instructions its pretty damm easy read it 2 or 3 time and refer back to it.

Only thing that I did not do from the instructions was the very 1st step where it says remove the 8mm screw in this hole 1st in his link.I could not find the 8 mm screw.

I caveman could doeeetttttttt

Good to hear it was a fairly straight forward install. The lights should be delivered today and I will post up photos tomorrow evening if all goes well.

Nicely done. They look great. So the main lights are bixenon and the high beams still function the same with the halogens broadcast through the reflector.
