While you can do it, it is illegal. Just a reason to get stopped by the police and handed a ticket or anything else they can dream up. Besides, you will never light up the road as well as with the main headlights. That is if they work for crap.

The left one was a B!tch since there's a horizontal piece of body panel that goes under the light and only has a (weirdly placed) 1 1/2 in dia hole to feed the wires through. The underside faring also made it impossible to access from underneath (and the low clearance didn't help much either...)
Was it $300 for the pair through them? Ive always seen $250-300USD EACH which pissed me off.

Brian, they are usually around $170 USD each. The Canadian $ has been a dog but I don't think it ever got that bad for 250 each. A good deal on the lenses would be $125 USD.

Some guy found one side for around $90 USD but I think that was an inventory clearance fluke.

All these prices are before the USD went into the crapper against the Euro a year+ ago.

Hmmm ok thanks. Maybe I was just reading the wrong site, and it WAS a while back before my buying power went up

<Must resist adding to spending spree>

From the looks of it- even Bosch H3 fog lamp inner reflectors can be used instead of the Hella kit. Are the Euro driving lights H3 or H1?
