Saleen-designed headlamp assemblies incorporating the industry's first bi-functional Xenon/HID lamp, these lights use moveable light shield technology to achieve both high and low beam functions in a single reflector with only one HID light source.
Yeah I heard about them. If I were to go HID i think I would want the projector. It spreads the beam much better than a reflector.

ouch? Man for 900 bucks to go from stock headlights to Xenons sounds like a hell of a deal to me. I haven't priced out what was mentioned here but I had looked into making projector headlights for my old car and just to get low beams and do it with the right stuff was going to cost close to 1200 bucks. Pluse I would have still had to retro fit everything into the houseing. I was looking on the saleen site and saw they have a HID headlight for stangs but I didn't see the ones for the trucks or is that what comes stock on thier S331 truck?

The trucks should be out to the dealers by mid 2006. I'm sure the parts will be available around the same time. Did you see their supercharger for the F-150?
