I love those! I almost bought them, but would rather use the money for other things.

I would use them. Need some better pictures.

Tys 4x4 FTW 04-13-2009 06:44 PM

yeah ill be taking some better pics later :)

RangerNDog 04-13-2009 07:50 PM

I would have loved to buy them. They will be 100000000x better than any stock housing. Now start posting output pics ans send me your black headlights.

Tys 4x4 FTW 04-13-2009 08:33 PM

idk if im gonna sell the old black capsules or not...

might keep them as backups if anything goes wrong?
but for the wrong price i'll let em go

its almost dark, so i'll be going out and taking pics soon

Tys 4x4 FTW 04-13-2009 09:38 PM

updated with new pic at first post

Tys 4x4 FTW 04-13-2009 09:39 PM

i took some other pics, but they don't even begin to show how good the output is with these.

FRXLT 04-13-2009 10:27 PM

Looking good. Another mod on my to do list at some point in time! :biggthump

comunistico 04-13-2009 11:05 PM

doesent look great... but hell id rather go for function over looks!

08XLT4x4 04-13-2009 11:12 PM

I think it would look better without the black... but its badass nonetheless and youre right about function being more important than looks!

Tys 4x4 FTW 04-13-2009 11:30 PM

yeah. i took them to a close offroad spot tonight
holy crap, they defnitely light **** up
that, with the 4 hellas
it was amazing lol

04blackedge 04-13-2009 11:32 PM

I think like a silver trim ring on it would look amazing. Right now theres just too much black IMO. But DAMN that light pattern is perfect.

08XLT4x4 04-13-2009 11:34 PM

I know what you mean about running HID heads and 4 Hella's... its amazing! lol

yeah once i get home for the summer and have a garage at my disposal, i'll probably crack em open and do some modifications..

Told you that bumper isn't going to hold paint and you shoulda done powder coat!

Idk about the projo's though...

i know. but i dont mind touching it up every once in a while. i just bought a can of the paint. its like 3 bucks a can lol

and look at that light output and tell me what you think again

thats what makes it worth it. stock light output, even with HID's doesnt even compare to this.

TrePaul86 04-13-2009 11:58 PM

Eh you like it. I'd rather put more lights up front than run those housings. No offense but they do not one thing for me.

RangerMuse 04-14-2009 12:02 AM

Man Like I said the night you got them, not my thing but if you dig them then Hell ya!

no offense taken, everyone is entitled to an opinion :biggthump

im just still so stoked about the light output. i knew it'd be good, but damn i didnt think it'd be this good! these projectors are even better then the ones in my mom's X5. like damnnn.

robert99ranger 04-14-2009 10:07 AM

I guess if you like it then.......

Veearesix 04-14-2009 10:07 AM

Me totally dig it - its not like my opinion counts but meh!

:)

gts007 04-14-2009 04:47 PM

yeah I personally think its badass like that. Don't change it! I'd rather run those than than the normal black 01+ ranger lamps, which are not that tight IMO

yetti96 04-14-2009 05:26 PM

I too feel as if they needed more but during the while process it got to that point and function overruled looks. I have seen people use the bottom of stainless steel travel mugs, stainless bowl bottoms, etc. There are also other who purchase OEM bezels from other cars and make them work. My hat's off to you Tys when you crack them back open and "sex them up a bit" and make it look more fitting with the whole scheme of the truck. Shouldn't be too difficult.

Jp7 04-14-2009 05:31 PM

I know I sound like a broken record here, but I have 3 sets of brand new projectors with brand new hid bulbs and brand new ballasts if anyone else wants to do this mod.

Trigger01 04-18-2009 10:06 PM

Aesthetically, I am not crazy about them, yet. Any shots from further away?
