CLOSED - The Retrofit Source GB

Hahahha, this is a spare light i purchased on Ebay.
HOWEVER, i am probably not going to get the retrofits =(
Something came up within the family and i need to reserve my fundings.
The Green is interesting, but i am kind of getting bored with it lol, so i might just peel it off and paint it to black and just sell this spare headlight.

 

Go with the D2S Projector, and a popular shroud, such as Gatling Gun / Apollo 2.0
It is easiest to work with D2S compare to FX R

 

What about the connections ect?

Is the Mini DS2 the one that i don't need to cut the headlight?

So if select the Mini DS2 which wiring harness and bulbs do i need?

Thanks again
Mito

 

Mini d2s and the mini h1 don't require cutting (I have h1's and am quite happy with them). The projectors are named after the bulb you need, for a tacoma you will need an H4 harness

 

Order has been placed

thanks Gearhead for the help.

I went with 1 x Bi-xenon Morimoto Mini Stage III Kit (D2S) (MiniD2SIII)
Re-sealing Glue Yes please
Projectors LHD (North American Standard)
Halos No Thanks
Bulbs Morimoto 3Five 5000K D2S
Ballasts Morimoto 3Five (35w) D2S
Wire Harness Relay: H4/9003
Shrouds Gatling Gun

 

Finally ordered mine. Went with FX-R's. Stoked!

 

Same here, hoping they ship very very soon! I don't get much free time. I basically have to mark my lights aiming position one night, pull the lights off, bring them inside to warm. Hit the sack for a few hours. Wake up wicked early and get to work and have them ready by night. Easy to do with a morimoto mini, but I have never done the FX-Rs before!

 

Please document and do a write up with the FXR conversion

 

When will these shipppppppppp

 

Yeah someone needs to cause the one everybody refers to is kinda old and not exactly that informative

 

Ok, so I've had these installed for several weeks now, but noticed something about a week ago, but no idea how long it's been going on. When braking, I've noticed that the drivers side bulb seems to be flickering. When I come to a stop, most of the time it keeps flickering, but sometimes will stop flickering. If it is flickering at a stop, it will stop doing so after letting off the brake pedal.



This is where my ground is connected, and I filed on the ground connection that was already there to get a good connection. Passenger side does not do this.

First question, is what is that electronic part with the fins on the housing, which is where I'm getting my ground?

Secondly, thinking about running my grounds back to the battery. Anyone think that would help?

 

I guess I should probably do the obvious thing, and make sure the bulb isn't loose, lol.

 

Okay, let this be a lesson to everybody, always check your bulbs make sure the lock ring is tightened down all the way. Ugh.

 

Update from Andrew

We're hoping to have our massive shipment in tomorrow, so it should go out either tomorrow or early next week. Thanks for your patience!
Andrew @ TRS

 

Correct. It is in customs right now letting them have at it, so as soon as they green flag it, we'll have an exact date. It's only a few hours away from us down in Savannah.

 

sweet!

 

GRR, bad news from work I will now be working mucho overtime and 6 days a week. Looks like the retrofit is going to be put on hold or sleep will if I can find a good stretch of time to complete it in

 

If I placed an order on this GB right now, would I have to wait for 9 more people because it looks like I'll be the first? Or would I be able to piggyback on the 10+ that are shipping soon?

 

You will piggyback on the 20+ already in this round because of the backorder. Thanks for checking!

DHL is pallet-izing the shipment after it had to go to a second customs office at port, so it will be here on Monday. We then begin tear down, counting, and testing, and then ship every backorder.
