I bought the xenon's and ballast + bulbs with AE's already installed for a steal: $355 off of ebay.. He also threw in another set of ballast and bulbs for the fogs for free. That will be stage II of my lil project..

Well, as shown in the first and second pic, I re-did whatever he had originally done, because it looked crappy. (I removed the wavy lenses and amber side markers) I grabbed some GE clear household glue from Lowe's and glued them to the black inner bezel. I hit them with the blow dryer for about 5-10 mins; so they were firm enough to remount in the headlights. Then I baked them shut...
