F150 (lightning) projector lights

I posted this on NLOC, but a lot dont read that so here it goes: in the OCT issue of truckin on pg. 75, APC has made F150 projector headlights, they look SWEET!!! I called Godfaather custom, they have them for $399 & the crystal clear corners for $40pr. Total with shipping was about $450. Does anyone know where else (cheaper) they can be found???? Also does anyone have a pic they can post here to show everyone what they look like. I am telling you, you guys will love the way they look!!!!

SVT LOGO

Am I the only one to just notice the SVT logo on the 'hood' of our 01's head lamp bulb?

Hmm, not sure if I like those yet. I think I'll have to see more photos.

I have the CrystalEyes set on my Lightning right now:




But I may give these a try. I need to find out more on what type of bulb they use. Does the 9007 just screw in? Is it a 9006 bulb like my Crystal Eyes setup? What bulb is the little foglight? Does it include a suitible harness? etc...

What do these do for you? Are they brighter, better pattern or what? I'm inclined to wait for the soon to be released HID kit from Sylvania.

well, called stylinconcepts ordrd the lights, the guy didnt know what type of lights they used. I had to order the clear corners from godfathers ($50) since stylin didnt have them in stock. I will have them sometime next week. I will report on them. Not sure if they will improve the brightness, but thay are about $600 cheaper than the sylvania lights ($900+). I will install some xenon bulbs, which are almost as good, but a ton cheaper!

I noticed them on there when they brought the '01 to the Detroit Auto Show back in Jan. Kind of nice to be specific for the L.

Also be sure to checkout:
http://www.fordpartsonline.com

They have a really cool parts selection, where depending on the part, you can see a blown up illustration of it. And nice prices as well. I've ordered from them a couple of times.
