Yes I have done a search. The neo 914's hellas are about $700. I do not plan on driving this car at night and I have removed the factory headlight buckets . I would like some light to come on when I flip the switch so they appear legal.

I put some of the original PIAA plastic tubing and plug back on the wire ends and wrapped it with silicon tape.
