HID Retrofit (FX-r Bixenon projectors) GB

here's what mine look like

 

What epoxy is everyone using to keep there gatling gun shrouds on?

 

i took my battery out then drilled hole in side used lock washer and bolt that came to attched the harness to the side. then ran the wring to pass. side up and under the shroud on top of radiator just notch the sides so wires can go under and shroud still sits flush. hope that helps

 

are you having the same problems with your gattling that our pics are showing?

 

Yup.. I just figured someone would call them and post up the solution.. but if no one does i will be starting Friday so i will call them then. Mine look like the pictures posted above.

I just trying to get everything i need before the day i start

 

ah ok cool, just checkin. Hopefully it won't take till friday for us to figure out a solution. My kitchen table is covered in parts and I was really lookin forward to gettin these babies on tonight but oh well =/

 

just hit me, I'm thinking you might need to drill out/dremel the hole your projectors go through, maybe the bowl behind the proj. (not the headlight bowl) isnt sitting far back enough, and because of that the shroud is lifted off the headlight bowl more, you see?

They look like they go in far enough though... look at the picture on the website, I dont know Blah

 

Here's a really good link for anybody doing the FX-r retrofit

I emailed them tonight so we'll see what they say.

 

Let us all know what they say!

 

Will do. I'll keep you all informed.

 

man, i have SOOOO much to install on my truck, from leather interior, to hood struts, to my projector retrofit, to AllPro bumpers, sliders, hitch set up, to my LEDs replacing any regular bulbs inside/outside the truck, redoing my kenwood nav HU install, and finishing my alarm install.... i need help, lol... ahhhhhhhh

i know this HID proj. install wont be easy, damn it i dont want to do it now, lol... but i want the finished product!

 

Hey RacerAV just wanted to say thanks again for setting up the group buy

 

hey no prob man! glad it worked out so well!

 

Unfortunately, I think that is the best write up so far and it is still seriously lacking some details.

I really hope someone can come up with a nice detailed writeup (pic heavy as well) for those of doing a FX-R with Gatling shrouds.

 

damn dude your job hiring?? haha

Seriously though even though I'm havin issues and want these in NOW, no way I woulda done it without the group buy

 

If I am understanding you correctly I don't think that could be it because the white crusher washer thing on the projectors is against the headlight housing so it's where it should be from what I can tell.

 

ya for real, I have been searching for days to find a good write up on the FX-R install. Still cant find a good one on the CCFL's with Gatling gun shrouds (basically don't know how to do the wiring)

 

haha, well, new truck, i need to get started on it quick.... ive never been able to hold onto something long before i start modding it.... no car, bike, nada... just want to jump right into this... unfortunately its freaking expensive! $2800 or so today at All Pro hurt a little... /
