56k, DIE!
Some of you know that for the past two years I have been trying to gain info on installing projector headlights. I contacted a few companies who make aftermarket ones for Honda and other cars, but none seemed to have an interest in us.
I then looked into retrofitting. Alas, I had to do it - and I'm (almost) done, after two attempts.
This is not a write-up, and it would probably take me forever to do one. Yes, I know it's not perfect, but it works
I guess it's more of a quad retrofit than a dual retro.
Story time...
In December 2006, I did a retrofit with Lexus IS350 D2S projectors. They use 3" fresnel lenses. It was eh...
That's gone.
In June 2007, I started picking up parts for a dual retrofit.
I did a little bit more research and found that the Acura TSX and Infiniti FX35 projector assemblies were the best bang-for-the-buck.
Then, in early August 2007 I started working on cutting and installing. It took two working days.
Here's what I did...
new aftermarket clear-reflector headlights
removing stuff from rear of assembly
FX35 projector assembly
FX35 projector assembly, apart
FX35 projector assembly, shield
FX35 projector assembly, lens removal
Lenses were removed because I swapped them for greater output on the FX35 housing. This is known as a TFX hybrid setup.
