    yup that helps.

    I personally have no expereince with these projectors however from some research I gathered that these projectors are similiar to the Minis. They require no cutting heavy modding. They should mount directly onto your reflector bowl with the little gadgets and gizmos that were provided with the product.

    Again, my knowledge on these projectors are slim to none. Also my limit to search/browse is limited on the work comp:eek:
