not much still shots, mostly action.

ebay housings for like $40
online cheap HID's for $120

i can do the same setup now for even less than 2 years ago, lol

vision is great, cutoff is horrible, bright as **** but the way i have them adjusted i've never been high-beamed for blinding people.

 

before i had my retrofits, i had H4 HID's at 6500k... i though those were bright and lit up the road like day light...

but when i switched to projectors and had them retro fitted using 4300k bulbs, it was like the heavens opened!

i just think its not about the beam intensity or brightness of bulbs, its how you control the your beam of light and project it forward instead of all over the place. You guys havent seen visibility until you ride in a car with retrofits, trust me it worth the investment.

 

 

^That fc is beautiful, too bad the pics aren't brighter...

 

^ thanks

if you want more pics check out my build up thread in my signature!

 

ICEY is that your FC? She looks beautiful.

I installed my HID's and the only way they show is if i have my brights on. Wierd...
Anyone know what's wrong with it?

 

My kit was the same way. I just swapped the hi and low beam wires on the stock harness going into the hid harness.

 

ya you probably have the wires low and high mixed up

 

I like the lack of cutoff pics provided. Seems only one person did the HID conversion correctly.. Kudos to them.. I think its ricey to slap blue *** lights in your car and blind the hell out of people with non-hid refractors.. but some consider my big *** wing to be ricey.... anyways here is my custom setup... "I has cutoff".....muhahaha 4300k just as good as my s2k

 

Here are mine..12000k really don't like them anymore just ordered some 5000k bi and also looking for some housings as well. Bought these housings off ebay and they suck. Also just got some for my rx8 can't wait to install those.

 

Whats wrong with the housings, and which brand are they?

 

holy glare batman

 

bought them off ebay the little shield in them arrived broken

 

Here is my TSX retrofit using 4,300K Philips D2S and 35w Slim ballasts.

H6054 modified to accept TSX projector unit-



White Color-



CutOff with Small Color Mod-

 

 

I hate how I bought my HIDs for soo much when they are dirt cheap now...

 

6000k HID Hi/Lo, Hella housings
3000K (yellow) HID Fog, stock housings (on with the lows)
6000K HID Driving Lights, PIAA housings (on with the highs)

I drive dark canyons to and from home, so best lighting I could find is important.

 

How is the cutoff Hozzman?

 

With the Hella housings, the cut off is actually pretty darn good.

 

I'll have to talk more to you about the conversion in terms of price, brand of HIDs, and where to purchase them next time I see you.

 

NJgreenbudd is the man with the master plan... i followed his exact retrofit install with the TSX projectors. I will never go back to just dropping in HID's in any headlight housing

I was once part of the crew that just dropping in HID bulbs into a headlight housing would make me have better visibility. I have to disagree now. Its blinding for others and the light isn't controlled...

The retrofit install was so simple... cheap compared to what your going to spend on (the risk of others getting blinded and causing an accident or getting pulled over for your HID's)

and in my opinion is just looks better.

 

^ The only issue I have with the TSX retrofit is cutting the new housings to install the TSX lights. If you screw up, you have to buy another set of housings.

 

Hozzman I NEED that hood scoop! Oh my I haven't seen one in forever!

 

do you have a write up on how you did your lights im looking at doing something similar

 

Yeah, it is hard to find authentic ones and they're perfect when going with FMIC. I just got lucky. There was someone at 7Stock making knock off's, but didn't get his info. Sorry.

Maybe some other forum member reading this can post his info?
