    a bit of show & go
    Hi everyone,


    I'm piecing items together for a projector retrofit for my 2nd gen taco.
    Already picked up an entire TRS kit off kijiji (brand new)
    I need to get a different wiring harness & possibly new shrouds.
    They're the morimoto ds2 mini projectors.
    It came with the gatling shrouds & they're huge. I understand there's alot of trimming involved.
    Are any shrouds completely plug n play with the oem headlight housings or which ones require the least trimming?

    I have apollo just because i wanted to avoid trimming, IMO, they are the best looking shrouds next to gats

    What are others using for this projector? I also prefer the least modification. Anyone using the Bullet or Orbit? Thanks.

    I started with the panamera's just because I liked the way they looked. They required a TON of cutting, which I promptly screwed up. Fast forward and I now have apollo's which just fit right on without any problems.
