    Looks great.....how did you cut the dust shield to get it to seal good around wires and new bulb?

    x2. do you have a picture of how much you trimmed to get such a nice seal on the bulb? Also, did you drill a hole for the bixenon solenoid wires or just ran them up with the bulbs?

    Great mounting location for your ballasts, I was looking for something similar I could take advantage of a factory bolt and that looks to be the closest.

    Hey guys, I just trimmed a little bit at a time and tested it with the bulb in until I figured I had a good seal. As for the bi-xenon wires, when I removed the original H4 bulb shield there was a hole leftover that I ran the wires through. Hope that helps.
