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

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.
