For sale is a pair(left and right) of the Spyder headlights, retrofitted with Mini H1 projectors. I ran these for about two months, no super huge issues.
This was my first headlight retrofit that I did myself, being so, it is DEFINITELY not the cleanest work.
I repeat NOT the cleanest work, HOWEVER, you wont notice ANY of the "ugly" because it is all hidden when you install them onto the truck.
They will come with the amber turn signals and sockets, and DDM Ultra 4500K Hid bulbs in the projectors.
The sealing of the lights is not PRETTY by any means. On the passenger side i ran an extra bead of clear rtv around the seam, as it seemed to fog after a car wash. This fixed the fog in the passenger side.
The driver side i CANNOT get to completely seal 100%. I re-baked them open a second time, and ADDED butyl 3M sealant to the seam, and it STILL wont seal perfectly. This MAY be due to the bulb caps(the bulb caps, with hid bulbs, dont fit perfectly, and i ran sealant around those as well to prevent moisture from getting in.) The fogging in the driver side seems to be worse in cold weather, or when you go from 20 degrees outside to a 50 degree garage, is typically when i noticed it. I also run my truck through the touchless car wash every other day or so, which im sure didnt help either.
ALSO the wiring for the halo lights and L shaped city lights was for the most part, removed, AKA if you want to use that portion of these lights, you cant. I was not interested in the look of the halo lights and city lights, and seeing as how those type of lights typically have those leds burn out over time anyway, i never ran them.
Here is the "build" thread per say when i did the retrofitting:

Here you can see the fogging:

If you were to purchase the housings, bulbs, projectors, brackets, and the misc hardware needed to do this, you would be VERY close to the $400 range.
I am asking $300 or best offer, and BUYER pays shipping. Paypal only please.
Any questions don't hesitate to ask!
