Got it back together. New headlights
This is just a small part of what I've been overhauling. But I sold my depos for some new headlights. Got those painted along with the license plate "holder" and front bumper. (some other parts were repainted too) Installed some 12000k HIDS too. Along with 85watt? hyper white fog lights. And some black mesh all in the front.
I know, the headlights arent the best fit. But its also an aftermarket hood, so im dealing with two gremlins. Its good enough for me.

yup. nearly exactly the same. but with a few differences. (black shroud isnt "vented", h3 and 9005 bulbs instead of h7, plastic brackets, and halos)
also, are you still actively trying to sell your vette?

I put it up a while back when I was on the fence about it. Decided to keep it for the long run.

They aren't wired up. u have to do that yourself. so u can choose when u want them to come on. there should be a black and red wire hanging out the back for the halo

I have mine wired to a switch separately on the dash so I can turn them on whenever I want. In the engine is the fuse panel. open it and look at the diagram for one that's labeled for headlights. take the fuse out and see if the wire is blown inside
