They're offering lease rates at $699 USD that's pretty close, with little down....http://www.cadillac.com/current-off...style=escalade&x-carline=escalade&x-year=2013

[AlienPrime]

[AlienPrime]

[AlienPrime]

You have a pic of the projector signal you are going to install?

Why just a projector signal?

 

[AlienPrime]

Why just a projector signal?

well just a preference

I really like the halogen housing

And the projector in the signals are white 5000k projectors

just to make it unique

i got this super amazing thing figured out! Gonna use T20 7440 Cree's (not 7443 dual filament like we're supposed to)

Park lights will not work, corners only turn on when signaling

might make a video for peeling headlight apart

 

[squiggy]

might make a video for peeling headlight apart

Please!

 

[AlienPrime]

Please!

Left headlight comes in April 15th, right comes in April 17th! Will probably be too excited not to do each one the same night!
will take pics when done and just to show projector cree signals

yaaaaay

Time to put them in the oven?

If i had the cojones to this I would, I'd like to paint the reflector for the DRLs/High-Beams yellow.

lol yeah gotta find someone! A very wonderful person in my life is strictly preventing me from baking them

"Toxic fumes!! Think of the childeren!"

(I don't have kids btw) She's just dumb

Pop a yellow bulb in there &/or get a yellow overlay. I don't know of any paint that would maintain enough reflectivity to work properly.

 

[TheSlowAndTheSerious]

I have yellow bulbs, doesnt reflect enough yellow. I'm waiting on blue rocket to make the yellow overlays for the 9th gen coupe.

I love the look of yellow painted reflectors though, it's actually pretty big in the BMW scene, read this thread on a bmw forum of some guy who did it to his high beams. http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?s=83c99119d889ea74b379ab7ff74edb38&t=757907
