Talked to Chuck and he said I can post this:

The kit is the HID kit from Stangmods..http://www.stangmods.com/mustang_hid_lights_s/61.htm

I've only heard good things about them, and here's the deal Matt will give us if enough people are interested:

1-9 kits ordered: $275.00 per kit shipped
10+ kits ordered: $250.00 per kit shipped

Let me know who is interested and I'll set up the exact start time and stop time for the group purchase with Matt. If you're interested, post your name here.

Thanks all.

I might be interested, are these street legal btw? Sorry I don't know much about HIDs other then they light up the road a lot better. Whats the difference between the 6000k and 8000k? Are they any brighter then each other or is it just the color?

Just the "intensity" of the blue. The 8k is much more blue than the 6k.

I'm sure you can. I believe that it just takes a different model number.

Can you post a model number or pic of your headlight?

Yes you can, however the projectors take different bulb numbers. The factory headlight is a 9007 while the projectors use a H4 or H7 bulb. You'll have to check and see.

Also be warned these projector headlights are designed for halogen bulbs, so while the HID bulbs will produce less glare than if left in the factory housing, they will not be the same as a proper HID reflector.

If you really want to do HID's the "right" way (although still not legal) you need to retrofit HID projectors that are high-beam capable into your stock housings. Good site for infor www.HIDplanet.com

Here's my HID kit installed. 8000K kit in the drivers light, Silverstar bulb in the pass light

I put HID's into my factory headlights, but the glare was just too great that i ended up taking them out. Now i'm going to use the kit along with a pair of BMW E36 bi-xenon projectors and retrofitting them into my Fox

I'd say they look comparable to that Cobra, except for our year cars.
