Helluva deal on NA e-code headlights
At the risk of this sounding like a Miata.net post, I thought I'd share a deal I found...
FM recently had a group buy on Bosch e-code headlights. I picked up a pair, and will vouch for their excellence. They're stamped "DOT" and "Motorcycle" but the light they throw is almost identical to automotive e-codes. Not sure what your local inspection station will say, but I don't think TX gives a shit as long as both headlights are burning.. Anyhow, the FM group buy is over, but you can still get the exact same lights HERE. Enjoy. |
FM has the 2 lamp set for $69.95 now that the original GB is over. Keith said at Mnet they may do it again.

Damn I found out about this e-code shit three weeks after I bought my lights a the auto store.
Go to GRM online to see a bitch fight between FM and the Bus Depot guy. ahaha. |

thank you for your support -b&j From Susquehanna Motorsports, a reputable seller: $71.75ea Amazon.com: Hella 90mm Low Beam Headlight, H9 Bulb, Connectors, Adjusters, Each: Automotive $67.25ea Amazon.com: Hella 90mm High Beam Headlight, H9 Bulb, Connectors, Adjusters, Each: Automotive Every once in a blue moon I'll search ebay and find someone selling a high/low pair for around $110.00 plus shipping. Just search "Hella 90mm" and from what I hear the low beams are HID friendly as is, just add your ballast and bulb. I recommend DDMTuning HIDs cause they're HELLA cheap! 30 bux right now for a lowbeam kit! http://www.ddmtuning.com/index.php?p...=102&parent=85 Grab up an extra pair of bulbs for 15 bux. Did I mention they offer a lifetime warranty on the ballast AND bulbs? The lights will be a little more than half the cost of a Moss kit, and if you happened to find an old brainstorm kit laying around it'd save you a lot of fab work. About the only reason I haven't done this yet is my fab skills currently really suck and I don't want something that looks like garbage with my name on it.. Good luck, and if you do it make sure its documented with pl0x and post... |

Actually it's my mistake. 99% of the time you see these lamps for sale the pricing is for EACH. I didn't read the OP's link well enough and just figured the $44.95 was per lamp where the FM buy was for a pair. Actually the OP's link is priced per PAIR too. Bulbs like FM included are another $8. Great deal on that link. |
