How much are they shipped to cal? My source supplies those lights with the indicators as a bundle and charges less than they are on ebay.de
But again, shipping is all important..

Ahh this I really have no idea. I'm actually trying to get shipping quotes myself .. Could you quote for shipping from Hong Kong? I'm really sorry I can't help on this I really have no connections in this area.

Cheers mate! Thanks! Couldn't be more happy to hear that people like my car! I really have to have the paintjob done though. The closeup pic shows the stone chips on the bonnet (argh!).. I've had the car booked in at a reputable bodyshop (last time I visited they had Rolls and Ferraris there!) in a few month's time.. Got to start saving up though!

Sorry mate. I haven't bothered with the beam pattern yet. I spent at least 3hrs installing the lights (I took them apart to clean the inside of the lense), buying new bulbs (aftermarket HIDs now illegal in Hong Kong, so they are ditched) and going around looking for tools (turned out my mech thought it was funny to kick it away while I went away for a drink )..

I am guessing the beam pattern should be OK. The glass is clear and they are adjustable like the stock ones. Sorry again for not being able to help though. I had the car fixed and tucked it away ASAP (busy schedule) as this is not my daily driver (too good for it!)

Jeffrey, is it possible for you to get us the name of where they can be purchased (eBay store or retail location) and also the part numbers? That way, we might be able to do a group buy and make the shipping sting a bit less.

Thanks again.

I sure can. The seller is based on Taiwan. I actually don't know him but my friends have bought from him with good experience.

I think this is the auction!

LOL sorry!
Basically the headlights are $4999 Taiwanese dollars, and the indicators are $700. Depending on the exchange rates, this can be a bargain!

Even if he does not, I'm in. I have my eyebrows sitting in my basement, and these lights look like they are worth the investment. Completely clear, and glass. Basically what I have wanted for a while. If nothing else, It gives me a great starting point for a HID retro later. Count me in if anything happens. 14623 or 07059, I will pay up the difference in shipping if one of you guys would get it shipped to you and then bounce it on over to me.
