    Would you mind answering some questions about a retrofit? I contacted you a while back about getting mine done. I've decided to do mine because I need the experience when my dad and gf want theirs done. I just had a few questions.

    I have been considering upgrading to projectors but have neither the time nor the expertise to do it myself.

    How does this work. Do I supply you with all the upgrade parts and headlight housings or do you have all access to all of that and I just pay you for a completed set to replace what I have in their now?

    My friend put a green LED in his. He drilled a hole in the reflector bowl! The part that shines when you activate your brights and just aim it towards the front lens or so...? I don't remember exactly. He is stationed in Japan right now so it's pretty much impossible to contact him.

    I say get a few pairs of lights and do it that way. It gets rid of the hassle of finding the right lights with the right sealant and whatnot.

    This something I might be interested in. I'd like to see some solid cost estimates before I can commit for sure.

    I promise you, you'll never want another car with reflector beams...well not for long anyways. I had HID's in my reflectors since pretty much day one. I had great ballasts and a good bulb, no stray light anywhere. And it was 4300k so it was as much light as I could get from two headlights. Then I did my retrofit...worlds of difference. You'll be glad you invested in a pair. I highly recommend ThunderOne as he inspired me to do mine without even realizing it.

    IMO that isn't expensive at all for paying somebody to do the work for you! I spent about $350 just in parts for mine!

    Anybody not wanting to do the work themselves but has the money I highly recommend this guy as long as he does good work :thumbsup:

    Damn good price for new headlights AND all the testing done?!? That's an awesome deal! Like I said before, THIS guy is worth doing your headlights for you if you can't do it yourself.
