yeah but i was looking up the price that they used to be going for like 500+ shipping.

I wonder now with all the retrofitting people out there if they could take a stock headlamp and make somethiing like this.

Morettes, like 600 bucks a pair, nonexistent now unless you get them used from someone. The lenses were made out of glass, popped out often and are difficult to repair. they also had the output of a flashlight.

you think there is anyway someone like yourself who has done a retro fit/lighting mods, would be able to make a mold or something and have a lighting set up sort of like morettes?

just wondering

They're not DOT legal here in the states. I've never made a mold of them and honestly I don't know of anyone that would be willing because there just isn't enough interest because of the poor output they produce.
