If your directions could be something like
Remove headlights
Ship to this address
Specify color
Include payment information

I'd be all over that.

I must agree with both above me, Critterman and elff.

In the last weeks I was thinking: I didn't saw anything new from jonymac, what he is cooking this time?

Light Maestro, as far I see, this mod requires to open the headlights, if this will be something doable and I will be able to blacken mines in the same time then I will be  :woohoo:

Can't wait to see this one up

LOL!  Elff - I'm not proud - I can be bought - but I'm not cheap - you buy the rings, ship me your lights, and don't hold me accountable for Fing them up and I will trade you for your time on one full install of a Pioneer 8120!

Next we'll be doing Goat's headlights - so we'll have instructions for the Sol too.

Critterman - I love to be hated, and Kelu - definitely doable, just takes a bit of patience.  You have to bake the headlights in an oven at 250 degrees for 12 minutes and then s l o w l y and c a r e f u l l y peel them apart - I will post more on this in the next few days.

To finish it off, I will match the halo kelvin to a new HID setup and match the small driving lights with dipped bulbs - then maybe some eyelids in silver graphite...

Ive wanted to do this for a long time, but AAC would not return my emails. Also i wasnt sure what size rings i needed. I want to do the low beams and the side markers, NOT the high beams.

I'll be very interested once you've got this test run on a Sol as well... thinking of retro fitting some projectors and HIDs into Sol headlight housings.,..

Yeah - I do have to say that AAC does not have the best customer service department - they are slow to answer emails and slow to ship their products.  What I have seen of their products though is high quality...
