pushtheextreme: The site MacADaYear is talking about is www.partszoneonline.com, just go to the monthly specials section at the bottom they have the headlamps for 174 and change.
Also, that article, why are they using velcro to mount the ballast? <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" /> I think I can find a better way to mount the ballasts more securely.
My Denali headlamps are coming in Thurs (4/10), and it's only costing me $160, no shipping cost <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> Heh

Man how did you find Denali lights for $160!?!? I would love to know how you found that deal. I've been looking around for a good set for over a year now, and the cheapest I've found was about $340 w/ shipping. Mind sending me an email and hooking me up? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> pushtheextreme@rockclimbing.com or post here.
Thanks man!

bah, I laugh at the $380 price tag!! muahahaha
I just got a hold of a pair for $250 shipped. And yes, I am the happiest man on earth. Hopefully they'll be here this weekend. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Stock vs. Denali vs. HID lights
Does anyone know, or has tried taking the orange reflector plastic piece out of the denali projectors like many have done on the Sierra headlamps? I got my projectors but I want they cleared, I'm just concerned about maybe damaging the projector lenses by exposing them to the air? I dunno, I'm sure I can remove them, just dont want to until I can find some clear corners, does anybody make them for the NBS Yukon Denalis?

Re: Stock vs. Denali vs. HID lights
Yeah you can take them out, but there is a little hole behind the orange reflector <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> . So I guess if you dont want to look at the little hole behind it then dont do it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> , but if you dont mind the hole then do it. It wont damage it at all. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
