HID's that are pnp

did you buy them for the ease of the install? i'm almost ready to move on to a bigger setup like the fx-r

 

Yes, ease of install and cost. This will be my first retrofit to install and I didn't want to get into time and effort to get everything aligned perfectly. I just sold a 2007 Civic Si that I had TSX retrofits in and I loved them so it's the first order of business on my Taco.

 

outstanding i really like my lights. just sold my subaru with fx35's in it. after finding these, i had to jump on them. are you reusing your stock lights?

 

Yes, I will use my stock lights. Going to leave the reflector chrome and black out the rest. Leaving the amber in them too for more of a stock look.

Next thing I would like to toy with is retrofitting the factory fogs with these mini projectors. You could use them as an extra high beam too. I don't think anyone has done this.

 

the blazer lights would be perfect for some fogs. looking forward to seeing how the mini d2s looks in your ride

 

i posted this in another thread as well, but it applies here too. these four output pics are of complete mod free hid projectors. no cutting of the reflector bowl is need.

Here is my thread on my retrofit install.

Looks good. Thanks for the write up....

 

thanks! hope i can help anyone who wants to go this route

 

Your the man...

 

and for those doing this kind of retro, remember to secure your dust covers tightly. if not, then you will get dirt inside the headlight housing during long trail runs.. ask me how i know this...

 

Can you explain how you installed them and a quick pick please.

 

might look different, but all cut out the center of the stock dust boot and put on. it was a tight fit, i had to use a screwdriver to help stretch it out

 

OP - Have you considered retrofit projectors in turn signals?

 

no. the only mod i see doing is either some offroad hid's in a light bar or doing the blinker swap and dropping in some hella's in the bumper where the stock blinkers are located

 

Wow! Thanks IamTacO for the great info! I'm just about to make my move on the Bi-Xenon FX-R Stage IV Kit with Apollo Shrouds and Philips D2S bulbs. My only hesitation is how to mount the projectors accurately?

Again, thanks for all the great info. guys!

 

i pm'd you back, i read your pm first before reading this post. whole different ball game from the mini's to the fx-r's.

 

Oops! Thanks IamTacO, I abruptly changed my mind and decided to switch to the Morimoto Minis D2S

 

This thread answered so many questions for me...so glad i found this. Thanks! Too bad a lot of the pics arn't up tho

 

If i already have a HID plug and play kit can i just order the shroud and other piece or does it all have to be ordered ?? just ordered them so not wanting to dump a bunch of money in just yet thanks
