    I'm looking for an aftermarket 3rd Prius headlight but I can't find any. I'm interested in the projected halo headlight. Are they gonna produce these soon or anyone know where I can get one for a 3rd gen Prius?

    The ultimate headlight upgrade would be the JDM LED or HID headlights sans the orange reflectors.

    I have to say the JDM Prius G's HID Headlights are the winner

    So my headlights and maybe there are two others with the same set up was modified by a friend of mine at his shop.
    They did sell these at one point but not enough interested to continue.
    Traditionally the modification process is the same...heat gun and remove the cover...LED ring board and LED's were installed right around the projectors which was just enough room to fit it perfectly behind the plastic mold. Holes were drilled for the five leds that was fitted behind the mold for the inner rows. Also a group of LEDs were installed on the side amber reflectors and then added the signal for low and high 's for the leds on the side.
    Clean and put right back together.

    I just met up with my friend and asked if he would want to do more headlights. He really doesn't want to unless there are several people interested. Problem is he needs to have the lights to do the modification at his shop.
    If anyone local really want to and we get a few people interested I maybe able to convince him to do it.

    Anyway, thanks for all the compliments.

    Hmm, I suspect that the LEDs aren't bright enough to be seen in bright sun, making them unusable as DRLs.

    Pictures/videos posted so far are in dim, low light conditions.
