Fixed Headlights
Hello gang,
I am thinking getting fixed headlights for the car. I like the look and the weight savings. Plus mine are stock, so they can use some boost in brightness.
I like the Breathless Performance ones the best, but there is no way in hell I would pay $1400 for them.
I saw that Radio Flyer has a sale on theirs, but not crazy about the look and still a G.
So, what are my other options?
I see a lot of them on e-bay for anywhere from $180 to $400.
So what should I watch for, stay away from, look for etc, etc...?
Any advice welcome.
TIA

I fully understand that you get what you pay for. But these are a fifth of the price of radioflyers!!! I see a ton of cars on the CF with them on.
So i was looking for some feedback on them.
The listing I posted says no instructions or bulbs included.
Does someone know what bulbs do these take and how easy they are to install?

However, my understanding is that this is a completely reversible mod, so there is no big deal.
Now can someone help me out with the info I need?

Why not contact the seller on the info on bulbs and install?

I'll ask him about the bulbs, but I thought the community could help me with an honest opinion/advise about the installation. Looking at different threads and pictures, seemed like a lot of people went through the process already.
