im looking for the rotary extreme complete headlight converion. anyone selling them used or cheaper than they are listed on websites???





i also have the C-west style headlight conversion for sale. i installed them on my car and they just didnt look right with my body kit and hood choice. im thinking the R.Extreme ones will fit my style much nicer...

stick with the C west, they are a million times easier to install than the rotary extreme, If you do decide to get the rotary extreme kit, make sure you opt for the HID conversion, or search online for a Hella 90mm HID kit to install as your headlights.

stick with the pop ups phil, i think your car will have too many bumps and curves in the front end with a c west headlight kit and that bumper.

the rotary extreme just looks so much nicer to me now. the other ones were more of an impulse buy. (i do that a lot)



how hard were your to put in....those are the rotary extreme ones you have right?

I was going to put it on my VR R1. I'm missing some head light stuff and thought I go with a cheap sleek light if I found one.. $500 is bit much when I get a deal for a new cwest replica set for lower than than. But for my fd, its going to be pop up!
