C5 R Headlights
Hello All,
Does anyone have any experience with the C5r headlights that West Coast Corvettes is selling? http://www.westcoastcorvette.com/pro...il.cfm?iid=748 They seem really sweet but I would like to hear any experiences people have had with them before I spend the $1300.
Thanks

Why go through WCC when you can buy direct from Spectre Works?

I have the specter works c5-r system, look great, HOWEVER if you want aperfect fit and finish this is not the kit for you. they are custom made and as such the tolerances are not exact. I installed HID in mine, looks trick.

http://www.HID4less.com makes HID bulbs and what not for everything. I believe the C5R bulbs are regular 9005 bulbs and the HID lights will plug right in. I have some on my truck and they work great.

If these WCC ones look just like the picture in the link, and if there's nothing too funky about them that's revealed with a close-up pic, then these look like what most people who've wanted C5-R-style light have been waiting for! Nice!
Someone get 'em!!! :)
