Ok, I need some help. My 06 headlight lenses are terribly crazed and I am in the process of swapping the lenses.
In order to do that, I bought some Spec-D halo lights to do a lens swap and the lens on the new lights is different than stock internally. Completely wrong fit. Different mounting points. (Warning to all about these light's lenses). I'll probably be restoring the lens back on and selling them for half price and used.
But I can't find a "non-halo" light to pull the lenses off of that I can trust. It seems that the entire internet only has halo lights, which is fine, IF they are the same style lenses as OEM. In other words, have the same internal mounting points. But I'm running scared.
If you have recently done this, where did you find them? Can you share the brand and where you found them? Any help is appreciated. If you were able to swap the lenses, help me out?
Yeah thats what I figured those OEM style light seem to have disappeared. Curious if the lens in the same between AP1 and Ap2. AP1 lights are usually much cheaper and you could maybe find an ok set of those and clean up the lens before swapping but no idea if they are the same.
I wonder that myself. I had one person say yes and one say no. I appreciate both inputs, but I still don't know! Anyone know if the clear lens is the same for both? Will my Ap2 internal trim fit the screw holes on the inside of an Ap1 lens? Will the lens fit the housing?
Okay, after about 8 hours of looking, I am convinced that as of right now, there are no original style headlights available anywhere. So, I'll polish the old ones, try to ignore the crazing, and keep an eye out for some when they are being produced again. If anyone finds them, please post!!
These are aftermarket oem style headlights that I would think should work for swapping the lens over.
Out of stock because they go fast. They're AP2 lights but have a bracket for AP1 ballast. I've seen those in the flesh, they look like they're OEM quality. Can't beat the price either. They're made by a Taiwanese company.
