Its hard to say to that. People have a want for this But if your going to charge 500 for a pnp kit i doubt they would buy.

If you came out with a 500$ kit that drops the head lights a little bit(Sleepy eyes) and a shitty hid kit im sure they would buy it.

Then to do both i think it would be about 800+ at very min.

Doesnt seem worth it at all unless you happen to find some very very good prices on parts to make the time worth it.

I've been working on a setup with 4 hella headlight modules, could probably do it for $500 (without bezels), but it's not HID. The bezels are the hard part...

Doing a drop in HID projector retrofit would probably cost around $500 shipped.

Ya. Expensive but for the non diy people thats about right. Wouldnt think it would be any less.

Now going off that if they wanted dual with custom mounts and not popping up all the way i would say at least 1200. DAMN.

Well, the 4 beam ones aren't HID (and don't really need to be as they use H9 bulbs). The hella HID version of the lights are about $500 A PIECE, so yeah, not cheap by any stretch of the imagination.

No i meant side by side projectors. But ya any which way its going to be too much.

Maybe at the least geta kit. Then get a 10 person group buy. If all 10 people can pay then make the kit and go from there.

Shhhhhh, don't tell them it's easy :p

lol, to most it may be easy but the cost kills. plus, i would rate the whole retrofit to be 9/10 with 10 being most difficult.

at the end though. driving at night has never been the same. im a lot more confident now that i can see the road 100x over and not blinding people doing it.
