LOL yes that you are sir!! When you do get everything tightened up, do you think that you would do set-ups and charge people for it? I damn sure would pay up to have dual projectors!

No, and not to be an a$$ but just because there is so much involved with doing a retrofit from getting all the parts to taking apart the headlight, cutting the plastic behind the headlight, doing the reflector cutting and fitting then sealing em up properly, it's a huge pain in the rectum. Hell I've been working on this retrofit for like a month, a half hour here and there because of not having the time. Plus, there is always the possibility that something stupid would happen and I break someone's reflector or something, hasn't happened to me...yet...but knowing my luck it would.

I'm more than happy to help someone as much as possible with ideas and advice. I am thinking about doing a write-up when I get a chance. I'd like to do a co-write-up with a certain alcoholic on this site that's done a retrofit but I'm not sure if he is willing to punt or not.

If that is your easy way of telling me to get off my ass and do it my damn self then ok...LOL j/p but thats cool too. cant wait for a write up!

Trust me once you do one yourself you'll be glad you did. I had a guy on GPONA do a set for me because I was too much of a pansy to do it myself and I wasn't satisfied with the result. Wasn't his fault, I just wanted em done another way so with my second set I did it all myself and am glad I did. Like I said I'm more than happy to help anyone willing to do a set I'm just not going to build one for anyone.

Not a good one. I am going to paint the reflector and the shrouds black so I will take more pics when I get that done.

There is a write up on here and all over the internet on how Retrofits are done.

I knw but im bein lazy...LOL plus imma clutz and im not the best with wiring things up...kinda scares me cuz i dnt wanna mess anything up.

Trail and Error and messing up happens, but its not anything you can't fix. Its really not that bad, its not like the end of the world if you mess up, you learn from your mistakes.

I'm guessing you mean the plastic behind the headlight? If so, this is what I did:



I only cut as much as I needed to fit the projectors because I didn't want to weaken the plastic too much. Granted, it is pretty strong plastic and there is a metal locking tab that bolts the headlight into place but I didn't want to take any chances.
