I got my Hella's here... http://www.adv4x4.com/he500foglaki.html for $59. Gotta add shipping now though... I had a coupon code or something for free ship. That long ago now.

any pics of those Hella's lit up at night (just the hella's if possible so i can see how they look on the road)
Thanks!

I smoked my headlights, blinkers, and lower fogs with a smoke kit from outmotoring. I was a little price at $50 (I think, can't remember), but they were precut and easy to install. I'm fairly certain it was lamix film, in fact, I think that's what was on the installation instructions in big letters. I'm pleased with the results. I've thought about smoking the 500s in the same fashion, but I'm holding out on it for the time being until I get get the reast of the carbon fiber parts to complete the black out.

No night pictures at the moment. I'll see about snapping some tonight, but the forecast is for rain and I have a show tomorrow. If I remember I'll snap some. My headlights will have to be on becuase the way it's wired; low beams = 500 fogs on, high beats = 500 driving lamsp and fogs on.

Oddly enough, I haven't driven at night since I put them on in May. It doesn't get dark here till about 10pm and we take the other mini if we go out at night.

My Hella 500's with steering column mounted switch. I prefer the black grille to the black and white covers - at least on a pure silver...
