Talking

They are xenon crystal clear headlights which could be found at www.rpiequipped.com or tel#(604)944-0494. Excellent to deal with.

i have already installed these on my car, you don't need to take off the bumper, and it isn't plug in and play as they lead you on to think, gotta do some minor changes and it will fit 2000-2002 with no problem.........

also i've been told xenon's are coming out, when, i don't know

I've heard the Xenons aren't here in America, but what about in Europe. Steve, the ones you had on hand - were they xenons?

Alex,

How difficult was the install of the Headlights? My husband is very good at hardware and electrical tasks, and should be able to handle it the install with a little guidance. When you get a chance can you post important points you discovered while performing your install?? Include if you will basic install steps.

Thanks

sure, no problem, but need to ask what year the car is? the would help a lot, since mine is the 96-99 model and the lights were for the 2000-2002, even though i was told there for the 96-99 but that wasn't true....

Can I suggest Niecey put those eye lashes/lids that the VW Beetles have on her new eyes

Hey Alex, I thought you already had the pre-00+ ones, what needed to be done? I know that you did but just can't understand why they designate them as pre-00, and yet you still need to do more to make them work

from what the supplier told me i thought they were 2000+ but once you have both w210 side by side you can see the difference... you have to cut something off and also make a bracket on one side .,..
