Best junkyard find ever?

I think so.

Found these babies at the local junkyard.

Specs as far as I know...

Morimoto Five 55 ballasts
6000k Bulbs
Morimoto Goldcontrol Relay and Harness

Not sure which projectors these are yet.

Pretty sure these are from trs at this point.

I have the best junkyard luck ever, period.

What?! Lucky! From right under my nose too. What junk yard if you don't mind me asking?

Pick a part on Turner Rd in Salem.

They have a ton of 2nd and 3rd gens and some tacos too. I've had a lot of good finds there in the past.

If you want manual hubs, go now, there's a taco with the entire spindle and front end setup sitting there, still had everything except the outers on it, I got my setup there for just over 100$ for the same stuff.
 
Looks like you have mh1 projectors, since the ballast is amp connector instead of d2s. I would stay with 35w ballast since these mh1 projector bowl can get damage. I think they say use 35w only.
 
Best find so far was this weekend. I called everywhere looking for a control arm for my buds car. It's 19 years old so all the parts stores were a strike out. Called a few junk yards and no luck. Kept trying and found one with what I needed. Installed the new control arm, ball joints, and a hub bearing and got him back on the road. If it wasn't for that junk yard find, I'm afraid he'd have to scrap the car because his control arm was snapped in half. Hope to find myself a prize at the junk yard one day but it made my day being able to find this for my friend.

Thanks for the input man, after checking it out they are the mini h1's and the ballasts are the Morimoto 3five's so I should be good to go.

Just have to get a new relay and one connector for the high beam actuator thing and it'll work perfect.

I will have to swap parts around though, one has a hole in the lens and the other has a broken adjuster and the shroud came loose

I'll probably end up just re-doing everything into my oem headlights since they're cheap eagle eyes ones now.

Very cool, I love being able to find things like that. It's all a part of the hunt.
