That looks rather familiar just smaller

Had a large version of that light on the gun shield (if you wanna call it that, that particular one was made out of sheet metal and styrofoam :shock: )

anyway, it was about the size of a basketball and had a thing you could flip down over it that seemed to be nothing more than a plastic magnifying glass

with the glass down friggin thing had 4 pencil beams, 2 top 2 bottom that you could blind people for half an hour a ridiculous distance away

we called it the he-man surefire :lol:

I don't care how long they last...$450 each is absolutely insane in the membrane. $900 buys alot of replacement headlights or several high-quality HID kits. Although I know from experience that HID kits don't work so well in stock KJ headlamp housings...unless you enjoy literally blinding oncoming traffic...but I digress.

Too much money right now. Maybe if they come down a bit.

even if they last forever, you hit a deer or you dump your girlfriend who used to be a softball player and BOOM your out 900 bucks on top of all the other damage as opposed to 50 bucks for reg lamps.

I've owned 5 cars in the last 8 years and have only once had to replace a headlamp
