Circuit Sports clear lenses

The circuit sports lenses are a good idea. It would also be a good time to do an hid projector retrofit as well.

Thanks for the input guys.
Are the circuit sports lenses plastic ?
Not really a fan of the triples. Had picked up a beat up coupe with a decent lookin sil front but the glass is broken. I like the duals but cant find any . So retrofitting the triples would kinda be a waist since I plan on going duals. I just wana get my 240 back on the roaadd . If anyone has anyone duals id rather go that route. Thanks again.

Look for someone selling a broken tab triples, usually go for dirt cheap, also why not do the projector retro fit? Spend a lil cash and do it, then either put them up for trade or sell them, people pay decent money for the headlights already retro fitted

Im on a super limited budget right now so cant really invest extra money. That sounds like a plan though , buy one thats all beat up but still has the glass. Looks like thats what ill be doing if I cant find any duals in the next week or so. Any idea on how the glass is removed ?

Sorry for the late ass reply, yup it's easy, put the headlight in the oven at 350 and let it sit for a few minutes, maybe 3 to 5 minutes USE OVEN MITS OR GLOVES! Pry the glass from the plastic, really easy, I've done it to my triple projectors AND my bricks, make sure before you put them back together, clean the inside of the glass and the housing they'll look great, but don't use any chemical cleaners, use water and a microfiber towel

^^ This!

Did the conversion on mine... holy cow what a difference... I went with 55w 5000k HID's in the new projectors and the lighting is insane and has proper cut offs and no glare to blind other drivers

And this works for the duals as well so its not a waste of money... more like practice

Goodluck

I would use only oem hid components, not an hid kit in halogen projectors (even though those hellas are decent they are made for driving light application not main beam)
