thanks everyone!!
lol, alot of people dont believe me when i explain the whole rhd vs lhd beam patterns. they think it just throws light like a flashlight would.
sometimes i feel like the reflectors were brighter, but damn, the projectors are so wide and sharp.

awesome job!
since these are USDM projectors the beam pattern as is _/￣ _/￣ where as if you have the JDM projectors since they are RHD then the beam patternw ill be ￣\_ ￣\_
projectors provide more light than halogeon based HID.

you ajust the lights as you would with out the retrofit. it uses the same ajustment screws as the projector is mounted on reflector. the reflector actually moves when you are making yout ajustments.

parts list
-projectors
-HID ballasts
-d2s bulbs
some ebay sellers will sell the above list as a set
-shrouds
-cheap aftermarket headlights that you can cut up...
*luckily, ebay has headlights for bug eyes.... no more for peanut eyes. they even have projector "style" headlights, all you would need to do is retrofit a better projector for hid like s2k, tsx or tl......
-jb weld kwick
-dremel universal rotary tool, or similar
thats all i can think of right now...
