i always want to find a pair of retrofitted headlights that can go down...
cuz one of the cool thing about pop ups is that fact that it goes up n down...open or close

/\/\/\ same. on one of the threads it shows you how to do it.
and they suggest using a s2k or TSX projector.
but they cut closer to the lens.
idk how to explain it but yeah u can open or close em

why are you using halogen projectors?
why not do it right and get an HID projector in there?

got my tsx projectors for about 130, denso ballasts for 80, bulbs for 50, and made my own harness and labor = 260. I wouldn't say it was too expensive if you shop around.

What did you use to secure the projectors to the housings? This has me curious as I have a pair of FX35 HID projectors I need to put in my hatch and if all I need is a pair of junky clear lensed conversion housings, I will gladly buy a pair just to tear em up.

09-22-2009, 02:15 AM
the projectors was snug fit on the h4 housing...i dremel little by little! but i use JB weld to seal up the gaps.

you guys realize i throw halogen projectors like these in the garbage?
you can get better results with a stock pair of h4 e-code headlights, that wouldnt suck chinese hid kit balls.

What do you mean Mike?
Everybody knows that blue glare across 4 lanes of traffic is "Baller yo!"
Fuck doing things the right way.

Oh wow, that link to nico seems like a better plan of action. Guess I will be buying a thing of ABS plastic and some cheap ass h4 housings to mod.

did he ever do a write up on this?

So did u get both headlights or one cuz one has two projectors but there's a high n low right ?
Also tries to remove them but they are one pc headlight with two projector lenses
Maybe some more detailed write up would be a big help so there's less fucks ups on those less talented in craftsmanship
