5th Gen HID Projectors

Post by andypont » Sun Dec 16, 2012 12:24 am

I have standard OEM reflectors as well as a set of angel eyes with halogen projectors.
Not in any real hurry, but does any body have any HID retrofit headlights to sell, or alternatively the know how and inclination to modify either of my headlights to fit HID reflectors?

Thanks. I will see if anyone here can help first (Cebul is a possibility, but he won't be able to for a couple of months) and if not then I will post on one of the US forums.

I did manage to fit in some halogen projectors inside some halo aftermarket lights

had to make alloy plate to fit to this:

I did this to give me RHD kickup, the projectors did give improved output

this was the problem with orginal projectors, kickup plate is curved so cannot be switched around:

not easy but same could be applied to hid projectors

Cheers guys.
I might have a go at retrofitting some projectors in my lights. I'm not the most patient of people though so no telling if i will end up with some working HIDs or broken headlights from being thrown!! :lol:
