3rd Gen BHLM + Retrofit Projector

Yea, I haven't started yet. That's great. I have 2 ballast, 4 led modules, 2 ignites and relays. Will do most wiring with grill out.

Do any of the ballast or led modules get Hot?

Thanks

 

I don’t believe my ballast do but I know my Resistors do. I’d have to check on the ballasts.

 

Awesome thanks

 

Hey mesojdm, when you paint the cutoff shields, does that affect the "tune" that you can get when you buy a set of RX350s?

 

No it doesn't, but a word of advice, make sure to use high-temp flat or satin paint. You can see my RX's with the red shield here. (And if you look really close the tuned Acura TL's in the other one.)

 

Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply. The red shield looks really good!

What do they actually do when they tune it? Is it easy to do at home with some knowledge or probably best to just get it professionally done?

 

I will check that out as well. I believe they Dim

 

They space the lense holder. You can follow a write up but I'd let a pro do it for the $100 if I hadn't done it before. Or just get em and play with em if you aren't in a rush to get them installed.

 

Mostly done. Clean up wiring and adjustment left.

Wow! Those look great man!

 

Love the light job, but I especially like those Meso Ultimate side mirrors...

 

My headlights came with Morimoto XB D2S 5500k bulbs. Anyone know if these are any good? I've heard good reviews about the Osram CBI?

 

Me too, I got very lucky to get those.

 

For those that did angry halos, what type of paint did u use to paint the diffuser?

 

Morimotos are good for the price. CBIs are excellent bulbs, I run them and they are crisp white, no blue tint at all. You can grab a pair for a little over $100 now, which is a really good price. I have had mine for over 2 years and they are still going strong

 

@mesojdm Fab something that'll let me mount some rigid Industries D2s in there!

 

I have the Morimotos in 5500k, I like them, they look pure white to me.

 

A little sneak peak of my final design for a side lens replacement. I will be putting acrylic strips in the windows, backlit by a LED strip. Stealth and functional.
Clear reflectors swaps are so last year.



I'll be making a limited edition batch of these. Drop in replacement.. but you will have to trim the OEM side panel for clearance.

 

Absolutely fantastic job OP! Lights look amazing

 

Wow. How do you keep finding new ways to exceed our expectations? I was planning on cutting or taping off the side reflector exactly like this but obviously this would be 100 times better than anything I'm capable of. Any idea of what the price range will be?
