    (yes, I've read the header thread)
    they're on the market at a good price, $280.

    here's a couple links;

    spyders website; Spyder Auto | Pontiac Grand Prix 97-03 Header - Chrome

    autopartswarehouse; 1997-2003 Pontiac Grand Prix Headers - Spyder TS-HE-PGPRIX97-C - Xtune, Stainless steel, 4-1
    There's probably 500 threads on this site about ebay projectors. Are they any good, they're ok at best. They have cheap brackets that break, bouncing problems, severe cross beam, cheap projector lenses, and are overpriced imo.

    These are stock style Morimoto retrofitted headlights I make for people. They don't bounce, the brackets dont break, there's minimal cross beam if any, they're actual real bi-xenon projectors with a quality lense, and you only need a single beam H1 hid kit for them. They have a cutoff shield that drops to create a true hi-beam and don't take 2 seperate HID kits like the ebay projectors do. The ebay projectors's hi beam is unfocused as it's not in an actual projector. Retro's have 4 pnp connections to hook up and you're done. Take a look at them and weigh the differences. Check the vendor section for pricing. All said and done retro's kick ebay projectors off the map, are a bit more expensive but not all that much.

    You need,
    1. Good pair of oem or oem style headlights with working headlight adjusters

    2. DDM H1 hid kit

    3. 9007 bi-xenon relay harness for theretrofitsource.com

    4. 1 pair of Morimoto H1 projectors

    5. 1 pair mini gatlin gun shrouds

    I have all the extra materials to complete these lights for you here at my residence. Retro's aren't for everyone but the pro's seriously out weigh the cons of the ebay lights if you're willing to spend the money to do it right the first time.
