Finally a Drop in projector light kit ( almost )

Post by R34SR »

OK so guys if you want to do a projector light swap, there's no need for all the crazy cutting and modifying of our headlamps to retrofit some super expensive TSX or RX330 projector lights.

Just get this

http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-Car-BI-Xenon- ... 256f412dc7


there are cheaper versions of this kit available but i wanted angel halos so i got this...it comes with everything, ballasts, bulbs, projectors, wiring , even ccfl inverters for the halos....wiring is like any other HID kit....and you dont need to buy anything else.

$125....done.
I highly recommend clear lenses so thats another $100.

Installation wise : It comes with the h3, h4 etc adapters that allows you to literally screw the projector in like a bulb and use the stock headlight bulb retaining system to hold the projector in place...i had to do a minor cutting of the reflector just to pass the wire through the rear. THATS IT....its pretty self explanatory when you get it in your hands.

It has excellent cutoff and is plenty more bright than you will ever need....sorry i don't have pics of em running but I'm working on other aspects of the car right now.....enjoy, and lemme know what you think, cause i think its the best $125 ive ever spent.

Ummm a good cutoff doesn't mean it has good output. I bet the output on those things sucks.

cant happen due to the threaded rear housing that mounts the projector with retainer....it would require cutting up the reflector and making your own mounting system....im happy with it :-)


and scroll to the bottom of this page and you can see the output from the first guy who did this :

i did the cutoff test , i suck at taking pictures cause i always get caught up doing the job and no one around me is interested in the things i do....sad yes....anyways the cutoff is like a straight line...just as good as the best i've seen......i did all this work only to find out that one of my adjustment screws on my headlight dosen't do anything...just spins...no way in hell im removing all that silicone to get in there...gotta find a way to adjust it somehow otherwise im gonna be blinding people.

Why is there a gap between the hood and lenses that seems to get bigger towards the middle? Is that just the way the lenses are made?

nope nothing to do with the lenses...my car had some front end damage when i bought her...i did alot of work to get the core support and headlight brackets beaten back into alignment...that aside....there is a rubber lining that's attached to the hood , its supposed to be just above the headlight to fill that gap...mine is recessed and dosent fit properly...something i have to take care of.

not sure its worth mentioning but the paint job was done by me in the back yard with tcp global SS urethane....i never painted a car before and i think it came out OK considering i didnt spend $3K for body work and paint.....

ahh got it...i thought he ment the link wasnt working or something...my bad.



my car is parked facing the opposite end of the wall otherwise i'd just pop in the battery and turn it on...but i ain't going to all the trouble to take it off stands and turn her around ...sorry dudes. All i can say is that its 10x better than my old HID's.......good cut off and $125 with very little effort....if you don't mind doing more work and spending more $$ im sure you can have a much better system.

I mean that those pictures don't show the output of the projectors. All it shows is that they put light in front of the car.

An output shot should look like this. Image
