It took me a while to find back in the day, the factory ones can be tough to track down. There are some aftermarket places that carry them, but not sure of the quality. I would definitely sell it cheaper to a member of the community.
Never mounted, but it has a few minor scratches from storage over the years. Abyss factory paint with mounting hardware included. Open to all fair offers + $50-ish shipping. I can snap some photos if anyone is interested.
I have been trying to get this recall work done for years and have visited two different local GM dealerships a handful of times. Both say that the parts are STILL not available. What am I missing here? How exactly am I supposed to get this fixed?
Thanks Joatmon, appreciate the in-depth response. Do you have that driver distraction camera that focuses on your face to see if you are paying attention to the road? It sounds like if you have it, you haven’t noticed it being invasive or setting off too many odd alert sounds. Thanks for all of your...
Hey Joatmon, I’ve also been looking to replace my vibe (in the next 6 mos or so), curious if you have had any noticeable windshield glass cracking/breaking issues on your Forester? From my research, it’s a great vehicle but windshield replacement paired with need to recalibrate the eye-sight system ...
Hey fellow Genvibers, haven't been very active in a while but a situation has presented itself, so I'm looking for advice/people with similar experiences. Went for the routine registration renewal emissions test that is required in Oregon and right before I pulled up to the testing station the CEL c...
No security feature, but good thought. Had a local audio guy take a quick look... no anomalies on the voltage, no blown fuses... but apparently the install I had done 7 years ago (through a "supposed" legit local company, small business with tons of positive reviews) is a cluster F and som...
Battery was replaced because it was 7 years old, basic delco, nearly dry on the inside... time for a new one. Guessing old age, there was a decent amount of corrosion built up though. Not aware of any blown fuses initially (stereo powered on at first) but will check now as that could definitely be t...
I have had a decent amount of audio upgrades done over the years. Unfortunately, I am not well versed in auto electrical systems so I have paid installers to do things right. A recent dead battery was replaced by a third party with an Optima Yellow Top. However, the folks that replaced my battery se...
The 05 can wear 03 lights just fine, perfect fit. I have an 06 and rocked some retrofit 03 lights headlights for a few years... the biggest issue was that the projectors in them were garbage. Luckily, last year I was able to have another retrofit done, it made a massive upgrade to my OEM lights. The...
Thanks for the ideas... full length console is a bit beyond my level of non-expertise :) Pouches/some type of leather storage could be interesting to play with. The 3D printer is very slow, to do something the size of a console would take forever. Custom badges/hood ornaments maybe... a 1/4" th...
I currently have access to the following: • 3D Printer • CO2 Laser Engraver (useful for wood, leather and plexigass) • Industrial sewing machine (although I have no confidence whatsoever in my sewing skills) • Screen printing paraphernalia Looking to learn these machines a bit more thoroughly and cr...
Yeah, it's strange because I'm sure most here wanted to give his lights a chance, but they were rough! Thought it was because I bought mine used, but sounds like we all had common issues. It's nice to have working lights again!
Sent you a negotiable price via PM for the set-up. Paid about $150/housing plus shipping when I thought they would work. Shipping is approx $25/headlight housing in US, would have to research a bit for Canadian shipping... I am in Portland, Oregon.
I have a modded set of 03-04 headlights retrofit with projectors and halos. I bought it second hand from Blue Crush a few years ago. Also had the full housings painted black, but kept the chrome rings. Unfortunately, I had quite a few functional issues with the set-up, apparently the projector/halo ...

I bought mine from Blue Crush, so if these are the same ones he was asking about they fit just fine. BC, you still around? EDIT: Looks like Vibe11 did a reverse swap with no issues, you should be fine! http://forums.genvibe.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=28910&p=326443&hilit=headlight+a...
Bull- I hear ya, good luck finding a stock set. I just had my original housings retrofit with some Morimoto gear from the retrofitsource. 10X better quality than the set-up we all bought into. I was going to try and drop the new gear into the old retrofit, but decided to start fresh instead. lannvou...

KITT, I'll ask about the halo/heat issue... I'm not positive that these are Morimoto Halos… edit, they are Morimoto… they come on with the parking lights, but do stay lit when the headlights are on… do you think that will be a problem? A full installation was part of the trade, he was short a ...
It's been a while since I have posted. I had quite a few issues with my first set of retro-fitted projectors (photo a few posts back in this thread) bought second hand from another member here.

Sorry if I missed your post, but what type of paint did you use on your headlights? How was the painting process, did you have to use multiple coats? ? What did you mask with? Do you have any close-up shots of the final look? Apologies for all of the questions, I have a project in the works and in t...
