Default Headlights V2: A creative exercise

I acquired a set of adaptive LCI headlights that were already modified by another retrofitter but unfortunately had some quality control issues so I am refurbishing, repairing, and rebuilding them.

I really enjoy my current headlights but am always looking for ways to optimize things. Since my current setup is a great setup (IMO) I took the liberty of getting more creative with this build. I will update this thread with build details when I have more time but in the meantime here is a picture to show the direction I am taking things.

Fun stuff,
Evan

Yes but nothing formal at this point. I have various builds for friends that I am working through (my wagon was occupying most of my time for the past few months), once I clear my To Do list I would be able to discuss future builds.

Interesting question.

The original owner of the headlights (the ones with the fake-projector lens), told me the name of the company who built them but when I called them to ask some questions about the headlight's history, they had no record of the build. Since I can not confirm the company I would rather not share information that may be incorrect. If you have a specific question maybe I can be of assistance.

If the price is right, sure.
