No, I belive, all those set ups are custom. There use to be a company called Rytek that made the conversion, but I don't think they make it anymore, plus the kit was really expense compared to making it yourself

How would one go about making the conversion theirself? I mean, what type of lights are people using?

Both of those pictures feature cars using the no longer made Rytek Piaa conversion. This can be duplicated in function by following the guide linked in my SIG for headlight conversion.

Most popular for do-it-yourselfers are either the hella 90 mm or the Piaa 1000x lights.

Here is a write-up on how to do this...

However, as pu12en12g mentioned, there are better choices of lights. I'm on my way out the door right now but there is a nice write-up of installing the lights he mentioned too! It was talked about recently so can be found with the search feature!

I have done the Hella 90mm conversion. Follow the link in my sig to get some more pics and a write-up on install.

Feel free to email me with questions about the Hella's.

Hey Sam I see you are close to me. How much did everything cost and would you be willing to do it for me one weekend? Little extra cash for you and a six pack. I could do it but I dont want to take for every. Since you have already done it should be a piece of cake. Email me and let me know. lewi7470@bellsouth.net
Thanks Travis

I already emailed Newbie back, but I'll post it on here before I have a line in my driveway waiting for a Hella installs
I am not too keen on doing the install again.... But instead of doing the install for you you can work with the install page that I made (I actually spent more time on that that on the install ). I am always open for questions so feel free to email me!

BTW, if you keep breaking the bulb, you may be putting on oils on them during the install or you are putting too much voltage on them. I have not had a broken one yet and I have had them for about 8 months now.
