looks good cant wait to see them on the car, i have a few projectors sitting around but never got around to actually retrofitting them

hpipro4 08-09-2009 01:20 AM

thanks only problem is...i snap the glass cover diagonally and lucky i have another pair but somewhat different so will see how it goes...oh another thing i tried fitment test and barely fits in there...i had to bend the metal thats on the way....more pics coming soon...

hOngsterr 08-09-2009 03:11 AM

i dont think ur headlights can go down anymore.
and you should of black housed them
lol

blackrms13 08-09-2009 03:14 AM

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

hOngsterr 08-09-2009 03:19 AM

/\/\/\ 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

hpipro4 08-10-2009 01:48 AM

im re-doing the retro fit....im using a different h4 housing and primered most of the stuff and will spray it flat black.....

it does close and open! did a fitment test already....

hOngsterr 08-10-2009 02:51 AM

why are you using halogen projectors?

why not do it right and get an HID projector in there?

everyone here are not rich...lol if i can find cheap ones i would!

blackrms13 08-10-2009 01:38 PM

arent the TSX projectors under 200 for a pair...

w0nderbr3ad 08-10-2009 02:22 PM

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.

hpipro4 08-16-2009 01:50 AM

alrite heres the finished retro-fit....i had to change the housing and decided to hit it w/flat black everything...though it looks ok!

ok heres the pics:

with it close! it does open and close w/o no problems......

i would but i didnt take pics when i did the mod..this all the pics i have.
i dont have any other projectors or h4 housing to do it again..

feel free to ask me questions if anyone wants to give it a try...

LayNLow 09-22-2009 02:00 AM

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.

hpipro4 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.

hOngsterr 09-22-2009 04:58 PM

heres a write up someone else did

Pretty nice!

ixfxi 09-22-2009 05:37 PM

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.

ThatGuy 09-22-2009 05:39 PM

What do you mean Mike?

Everybody knows that blue glare across 4 lanes of traffic is "Baller yo!"

Fuck doing things the right way.
