Can't remember for the life of me who makes the 99-00 Protege headlights and clear corners that are blacked out. Anyone got a link for me?

FYI, if it matters, I just got those headlights/corners last week. They look nice, but not SAE/DOT stamped if that matters to you.

It looks like the headlights have a slot for an extra bulb... like some 5watt bulb that might look nice when the headlights aren't lit...
Can we get some pics posted?

Doesn't really matter to me. Just going for a better look, and no one is ever gonna know that they aren't legal besides me.
Did you buy from the seller listed above? Good experience?

The opening is for a 194 style bulb, which I'll be using either a 1W amber or white LED. I don't have any pics, as I just got the lights and they are still in the box. I was just stating regarding the DOT thing because where I live the cops like to hassle some, and if they do they can give an inspect ticket regarding the legality of certain car parts, like my neighbor's Integra altezzas.

I did buy from racing guys. Haven't left feedbackyet, as they never rsponded to my question regarding the DOT/SAE claim. They did ship quickly, pack well, and give me tracking info for the shipment. Overall good, but I am a bit irritated they didn't respond to my question after the sale regarding some mild false advertising.

nice, do you have any night pics? I'm trying to figure out if I should get them... I have a Sand Mica colored car that I am thinking of darkening a bit.

why would they not be legal?

I think it's some type of safety thing, not positive though.

Does the little light (in the headlight housing, but not the headlight....) in there look good lit up? Comments?

Because they look cool
And they haven't been certified as meeting the safety standards of the DOT gnomes.

ES MODEL, I got a white proto too and i was wondering if u liked urs. i think they look sick on your car. do they effect the amount of light when ur driving at night? or is it the same. and
does anyone kno if they sell legal ones that are darker? or any other recommended headlights for a white 99 protege.
