Default Custom headlight question....

Would these headlights fit in our openings, and how hard would it be to mount them and fiberglass them in? And would they work with our electrical system? Just curious.

Thanks

yeah I was just wondering how much custom fabbing it would take to make it work. I think the angel eyes look cool, even though some would call it "Rice".

I thought they would be something cool and different. Here is a pic of what the angel eyes look like at night. I just wish they had the dimensions of it, they look a little long.

How much are they wanting for those lights? I know the C5 stuff costs some serious coin! I think they'd look pretty trick on the C3. Let us know if you get them and get them to work!

Well they are selling them on Ebay for about $270. Not bad. The expensive part would be attaching them to the car I would think. Unless your really good at that and can do it yourself.
