Well I have wanted them for awhile and I just got my taxes back so I went for it and bought some projectors for a Retrofit. Here is what I got.

The Bulbs I got

The shrouds I got

And I decided to go for the CCFL Angel eyes to tie into the parking lights.

Everything will be painted black with the exception of the parking light/Blinker reflector.

Also on the lens is there a way to delete the 3 **** off the headlight lens?

 

I should think you should do amber halos to go with the parking and corner lights. That would be sweet.

Still, regardless, I'm anxious to watch this project!

 

I'd love to do these. Don't you have to cut the housing to mount these? I'd be so afraid that I'd miss-align them

 

Tre That would look pretty sweet

Not quite positive. I will know more when I have the projectors in my hand. Yeah I am kind of afraid cause I have never done or seen it done other than pictures. But hey live and learn and hope it comes out right. and if it doesn't then keep at it till it is perfect to my liking...

We will see how it goes. Its a learning experience.

 

Jake got away with not cutting his. Just ran everything out the back somehow.

 

Hey ben my buddy just bought his projectors from the retro fit souce too i'll get u some pictures of his.
These are the ones he made for his volkswagon Golf 1.8T

These are the ones he made for his brother Jetta VR6

 

Those lights look pretty nice.

This is the look im going for... Haha Sorry Tyler

 

 

Those are my buddys fifth and six set of lights and my friend is a perfectionist, no matter what everything looks stock he is absolutely sick at it

 

I like this... Keep updating this please!!

 

They should be shipped today. the shrouds and 100mm Angel eyes are back ordered and he said those should ship next week.

I will keep you posted.

 

Also forgot to let yall know they threw these in for free

So I will try some different things with them and will only use them if they dont look too rice.

 

They Came!!!!! Here is at least 1 of everything in the first box. 100mm Halos and Shrouds will be here next week.














These strips I think I am gonna hide up under between the bumper and the Header panel.




Right back in there

Might make a cool Photo contest photo

 

i saw a guy dis-assemble the projector and painted the metal pieces green that are used for the high low cut off so when you look at the projector it was green inside

 

Yeah I was thinking of painting these black. or another color

 

interesting project.

 

its these kind of things that get me into trouble, i already have a hard enough time explaining to the gf as to why im spending money on the truck. lmao

 

Yeah she got on me when I opened the box. hahaha... Now she wants me to buy her a gun. hahaha Please dont shoot me with it. hahaha

 

yea its that lil lever that flips up to block out the light black would be sweet i dunno what color i wanna do when i get around to doing this magnificent mod lol

 

Yeah Ive followed JP7s thread.

Also I tested the LED strips out just to see brightness. They are quite bright even in the daylight. Going to pick up the housings to mod on Sunday. And picking up mustang Dome light. from Joey (Silver)

 

Just wish he went into the cutting and the whole install

 

Yeah. His was more of a Heres what I did not a How i did it thread... Not sure I can do a How to. I will try my best to document everything I do but I suck at giving directions. haha

 

sweet..cant wait to see it and if not just take pics of every step or how you mounted em cuz thats the part i dont quite get

 

From looking at the projectors today it looks like I might be able to do minimal cutting. on the housing. but not sure till I bake the lens off the housing.

 

from what ive seen on the other installs you just gotta cut that giant hole in the back fit it maybe screw it in a lol and mount with a ton of silicone lol
