nope.. hehehe.. and for the third time they are in boxes in my trunk.. i had the bulbs ordeded from cardomain.com.. they were suposed to show up via fedex.. i called home last week to see if anything had showed up for me via fedex.. my grandfather said yes.. so i came home and imediatly took my car apart.. then went inside to get the bulbs.. only to find that i did have a package for me.. but it was from UPS.. and it contained ****.. (sodom insane available through gamelink.com hehe)...
so i got all ticked off and just put my stock lights back in.. then a day later i got a email from cardomain saying that the bulbs were on back order.. then the next day the emailed me again saying that they should be here on december 8th.... goddamnit...
so we will see.. im about to bother impule about how to do it.. i know all it involves is a line from the battery, a relay or 4, some switches and a ground wire.. but i have no idea what kind of relay and i feel stupid asking cuz i know that my answer will be something like "duh dumbass theres only one type of relay for cars just pick a brand and go for it".. or something like that.. or maybe there is like 50million different kinds of relays.. i dont know.. (if you know this is where you can chime in *hint hint*)
wow.. what a rant.. a simple "no" would have covered it...

hahaha... they are fine.. working fine.. not fogging up at all... however the halos are still not hooked up.. everytime i get motivated to wire them up it either starts raining or snowing.. however a few weeks ago when i was doing my airhorn install i did tap into the parking lights for a few minutes... they look cool as hell but i still want to only have them on when i flip a switch for them... so.. my guess is they will ramain unpluged for another month or two till it gets nice out..
i dont plan on selling them while i still own my car.. and im keepin my car for a few more years.. but if i smash it or decide to get different lights you will be the first to know

Re: finally put in my new headlights
hey againifall, i have a 2003 coupe, which is black just like yours. i just recieved the exact headlights you have in your first picture. i got the chrome ones though, not the black.
i will be putting them in soon, i read this entire thread, but any other suggestions or tips for when i put them in.
i am thinking about converting to HIDs, i actually ordered the kit, still debating on if i should install them or not.
i will post some pictures when it is all done with
