Elton, would you say the light output with the 99+ housing is significant compared to the frosted ones? Thanks

i'm digging the background exposure on the first new picture, makes it seem dreamy.
ian, watch out for aftermarket headlamps, they may look cool and convincing but the beam pattern can be horrible. i've heard the jdm style clears that burtman sells are pretty high quality but the beam pattern blows completely. i think you'd honestly be better off getting oem clears then doing the black yourself

Ok, I've always somehow ignored the millions of 99+ headlamp posts. Sorry, I'll try reading next time. :D
So you just picked up some parted out oem ones? I did a search on there, but, didn't find them. I'll keep searching till I find the OEMs.
Thanks. They look great. I really would like to swap mine out, and mine have cracks and chips anyways. One even has a hole the size of a BB.
