Is this the same kit as you guys got? same seller I see. It looks like the same kit just doesn't specify what make/model it fits? A generic kit?

Most 5-3/4'" headlights will fit in your headlight buckets. Are you sure that you want that smaller looking headlight with the halo ring around it? Makes your headlights  look small.

I have another e-mail into this "neondials" about shipping to Canada..

So im keeping my fingers crosses.. When i asked before a couple moths back he had said he was out of stock.. Which his e-bay account did not have any for sale..

But now theres auctions listing these conversions..

Other kits will also work.. You dont need his "special" wiring harness.. All the harness does is moves your ground wire, pretty much just rotating the wires with a harness..

I was going to have them sent to my inlaws in PA and pick them up when I go to Carlisle. I still haven't decided if I'm going that route yet?

Well the guy said NO!

Damn jerk.. I dont uunderstand his problem, I offered to ship on my account even so that there were no "hidden fees" or "surprise charges" that he said was his reasoning for not shipping to Canada...

Well it looks like im in the same boat of having to ship to someone in the states then try & get it to me...

I have been able to source these through Hella, Autospares(JETCO), Pacesetter/Sirius... The only problem being that they don't have the halo rings.. They are just the upgraded housings& grommets to fit H1 & H4 bulb types..

I might go without the Halos just so I dont have to buy from this Jerk.

Just ordered a set, already on the way. UPS says they'll be here Tuesday.

greenzeppelin- If you're willing to explain how I can ship a set to Canada (and cover the cost of shipping) and wouldn't mind sending me money via paypal, I could buy the other set he has listed for you and send them your way if you'd like

I just pulled the trigger on these and am having them shipped to my in-laws in PA , so I'll pick them up when I go to Carlisle.

You'll have to modify the buckets to accept these. Take a picture after you have them installed.

Ya I know. I had to modify the buckets to use the amber sealed beams too. So what the hech I thought! LOL Mine is a six banger converted to 440 so it's not a "money car"  ie # matching so I can do what I want and have fun and not worry about the value too much. I'm thinking I'd like to have the 2 inboard lamp using amber bulbs so it sort of mimics the new Challenger?

I was think about that before too.  Yellow or orange bulbs in the high beams for turn signals, then white driving lights down at the corners.  Then I looked at my car from the front again. it looks good with the orange parking lights and turn signals where they are. You can even tell a Challenger coming towards you because of the parking lights where they are.  We'll see how yours turn out.
