RadioShack has them too bro.LOL if they disco that switch and I need one I'm coming to you...better not jack the price up
03-20-2011
Must be store specific.
That was the first place i looked a week or 2 ago when i was searching for relays and resistors.
Did not know exactly what i was looking for but all they had were some genaric toggle switches and lighted rocker switches.
Nothing that looked as nice as the autozone ones.
Good to know though. mabey they could order if they don't stock them.

That's where I got my **** from. The shack is a little cheaper than Autozone most of the time, but still overpriced. I prefer to get my **** from China (ebay) if I can, because delivery time means nothing to me and it's usually like 1/10th the price. I'm in no hurry to spend more than I have to

ok, here are some pictures. The leds and demon eyes are not wired yet.
The pictures are progressive.
2 3/4 hole in lens and painted plack
test fitting
checking clerance
installing led strips
led strips after painting them
testing led's
sealing the back
checking again
Installed. Need white 189 led's for corners.. Factory bulbs look orange
Low beams
Low with driving lights
High beams,, Morimoto's and stock location
03-21-2011
The morimotos and stock high beams are 6000k and the driving lights are 3000k. I will post pics once all led's are wired.
03-22-2011
Looks good man.
What kind of sealant did you use on the back? Looks like some kind of orange silicone.
03-22-2011
Looks real good.
Lotsa 04+ coming up with retros now.
03-22-2011
You should be proud Drunkie. You are the forerunner of all this. You lead, we follow.....like sheep. lol.
03-22-2011
I was the FIRST to do a QUAD dammit!!
Baaaaaaaa.
03-22-2011
Orly?
I am the first to do a bi-xenon projector and first for Projector fogs, cleared side markers
you are the first to do bi-xenon dual projectors
RoadRash was the first to a retrofit period, in which he did TL projectors in a Dual setup
I only have one thing left to say though, you are all gonna learn the hard way as to why I did the LEDs on the outside on the 3rd and 4th set of headlights. But thats what makes it so fun :LOL:
03-22-2011
My mistake.
True, I would say he has done the most work on a retro, period. He freakin' used fiberglass and everything. Looks bad ass in person.

Damn I never really seen clear pictures, didn't know he fiberglassed
03-22-2011
I used High-temp red silicone so seal the inside because i was worried about the heat the projectors make. Then i used High grade 20 year clear silicone to seal the outter. It is a lot softer and allows the lens to be adjusted for up and down beam aligning.
I am kinda curious about drunkie's warning about the led's being on the inside. I thought led's had a 10,000+ hour life span.
yes, Drunkie is the man. I did pretty much copy his design. I will be the first to admit it. Bhaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
I am already wishing i would have done the dual projectors. Light output seems alot less that before with the Hid's in stock location.(still way brighter than stock halogen).
03-22-2011
Yeah, he lives in the same town as me ironically. Cool guy. Though he works like 80 hours a week and I haven't talked to him in a long time. He has the TSX projectors for the low beam and an H7 set for the highbeams. I blame him and you for my financial deficits due to retrofits
03-22-2011
Yeah, those LEDs have blown out on me, a Chinese kid put them together for $0.01...but I've had a strip of 3 LEDs go out.
No way of telling really, if it happens you just pop it out.
03-22-2011
Not happy with the light output?
03-22-2011
just do a fog retro, get the blazer fogs. trust me, they will fill in the rest of the light that your looking for.
03-23-2011
I was considering a fog/driving retrofit. I was actually wanting to do a dual Hid 3000k bulb in each lens.
I have been searching for the Grand prix driving lights that do not have the dual lens( ie. single bulb centered in the lens). i do not know if they only came in certain years or models.
I do not think the projector retro in the fog location will give me the output i want. I already have Hid's in the fog location and it does help but not enough.
I love the apperance i got from this retrofit but i will know wether or not i redo it this weekend. I am going to camp and drive a ton of back roads and will determine if i like this setup or not.
03-23-2011
I will be doing a projector fog retro somewhere in the near future... Ill just be using those crappy 04+ projectors, but i got some E30 lenses so it should slightly help the output. I don't think i will be using HID bulbs in it right away though, just normal h1 yellow bulbs.. Its probably gonna be a tight fit in there with the split turn signal/fogs, so i might have to do some modifications with that...
