From Amazon but you'll have to do a little modding. Not much just take out the bulb hold down spring and use a twist tie to hold the bulb in with screws. And I used a 194 LED bulb from JDM ALSTAR too.

Cool - with the LED you still get the cat face silhouette.

What did you use for the turn signals? And any way to post a video on how to mod the LED bulb for the head light??

I take it then you just fit the bulb into the signal housing and the wires connect to the wiring in turn signal housing also?

Ahh just noticed in your picture again that the bulb is in the housing already and just place the resister in line with the + and - and just attach the wires again. Thanks.

Wow,both are impressive, but I think the first looks better from the pictures you took. Very hard to tell low light pictures for accurate perspectives! Which do you think is better?

The first one is brighter but the Second one had a better light light placement and you can tell that you have the high beams on. Maybe some more fine tuning on the head light adjuster might a give a better idea.

Well, looking forward to some better pictures as I drive primarily at night and am realizing how poor the lighting really is.
