Is there anywhere to get aftermarket/cheaper headlights for this guy? The xenon’s are expensive and one of my light housings is fogging so bad you can’t see it. Are there any drop in LED options?

Edit: Bluetooth from my phone when using Siri or making calls is also whisper quiet. No idea why. Is it possible to get an aftermarket radio for this guy either?

many of the brands are cheap on Amazon.

Headlight replacement for many SHO owners requires or is difficult enough for taking the bumper off. If you are going that route replace the headlights.

I have NOT found different aftermarket designs that have cat eyes etc. If anyone knows a place they can share.

My two cents - replace both headlights and bulbs same time - save up.

PS there are LED replacements here and there - my two cents not worthwhile. The xenon diamond design produces a targeted central beam without getting weird optics of a split design of LED - 2 LEDs on two sides of a heat sink, led and the lumens are usually similar. Stick with the xenon. My suggestion is buy and watch videos from diode Dynamics,

On the bluetooth question - you should be able to set the phone volume differently for each bluetooth "speaker" that you connect to the phone. So, on the phone when connected to the car, turn the phone volume up all the way.

I appreciate it. Do you know where I could find lenses that aren’t like 1000 dollars? Or would I be better off trying to fix the fog myself?

Yeah that’s what I saw everywhere too. I made sure to get in a phone call and actually try to adjust the volume. No matter what it’s whisper quiet and really low quality. I’ll attach a video in a little bit so everyone can see what I’m talking about.
