I am looking to retrofit some hid projectors into my dual silvia projector headlights for my S13.
Anyone have any good recommendations?
I tried to fit m3 projectors in there and they fit pretty good.
I have never tried to do anything like this before.
I got to as far as taking everything apart, baking my silvia headlights, taking out the projectors, fitting the M3s, but I have no idea how to make a mount or bracket or anything like that.
Anyone have any good experiences?
Referals?

Anyone has any suggestions for projector/HID retrofit for S13 pop up headlights?
I mean, obviously the Clearcorner version is feasible, but would take some work. Are there any other alternatives out there?

^^^ Here's a DIY writeup: http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread?id=119495 It uses foglamps, but it wouldn't be too hard to just put projectors on place of them. I'm buying a set of the SuperMade housings and retrofitting some Acura projectors into them...

Wow Derux, that was the idea I had, but damn, you are more genius than I am, I woulda just dremeled that shit. since you're closer, I would probably let you do it.
question, what projectors did you use? And how long would it take? I dont really care about the time actually.
I hope you used 3 projectors, but it doesnt look like you did, your projectors are a little smaller. The M3 ones are a lil bigge than the stock projectors.
Anyways, give me a call guys whoever wants to work on my projectors!

derux used OEM Audi. He has dual projector, not triple.
Alternatively, good ole Mike Mamos can do it for you, for the price of 436754867797546987 dollars.
there's a guy in nor cal that does awesome retrofits. you can find him in the hidplanet.com forums.
