These headlights have to be baked open and taken apart, but all the OEM HID internals will swap right in place, quite the facelifted look too! It says they are for halogen but like I said if you bake them open you can put your OEM projectors in there, self leveling motors etc.

Check these out, somethings up with the listing though because the normal price is like $219:

For tail lights, most of us have updated to the LED units:

Hope that helps man!
I can do/repair just about anything on a car or bike. I'm not going to crack open brand new headlights cases and swap motors that I'm not sure will work....much smarter to buy these with self levelers...

and almost plug and play..just have to wire the angle eyes to a keyed power source.
