so i ordered a 2010 tC that I will get in August, and already I'm planning on what im going to do to it. :D

so i've been researching and trying to find out on my own but I'm having no luck.... so what do you guys think?

Amber Headlight Reflector

not a big fan of the amber headlight reflector... so i came upon these.




Does the reflector have its own bulb? If so, what kind?

Because these are projector headlights... could i just buy HID bulbs and plug in play? Or would i def still need a HID kit?

Let me know what you guys think.

thanks!

You car going to get rid of headlights that are worth over $200 a piece for some POS headlights that will have horrible cutoff, fog up, and the leds will burnout in a few weeks, not smart.

Just get some overlays for the side markers or bake them open and tint them.

karonos

Sweet. I'll do that then.

thanks so much!

karonos

oh, but could i still throw HID bulbs in stock headlights? Or would i need the HID kit?

DJ08tC

please dont get after market headlights.. but if u do sell me ur 2010 head lights lol

karonos

lol, I'll def stick with overlays.

Could i just buy reflector overlay? Or would i pretty much have to shape it out of a entire headlight overlay?

i opened up my headlights and painted both my reflectors and my eyelids. I think it's sexy. and now I gotta go buy those chrome bulbs for the signals

The link I posted above is for the reflector overlays, they are pre-cut and ready to install. It just covers the reflectors not the whole headlight

As stated earlier; keep the OEM headlights. For a cleaner look, replace the amber reflector with a clear
light defuser from Home Depot or Lowes. Get chrome turn signal bulbs that light up amber and you'll
be straight housin' son.

karonos

A clear light defuser? Got a pic of that by chance?

Hyghgynx

Nope, but here's a link...
