man.. i just spent 4hours installing my damn JDM headlights today (9pm-1am)... it really SUX working @ night

after everything was done... i had like:

-5+ bolts leftover...
-ended up with 2 clips that fell out from somewhere.. (no clue where)
-was missing 1 of those push-pin type thing
-1 of the nuts that go against the fender wouldn't tighten
-1 of the bolts under the car, the hole was messed up because of a rusted bolt and wouldn't go in anymore...

so think it's still ok to with all these extra parts not back on the car? (like my bumper or that plastic thing udner the car won't just fall out while driving at high speeds? hah

had the lowbeams retrofitted with OEM TSX HID Projectors and so the beam pattern is for LHD. Painted the projector part black to prevent glare.
Can't believe how BRIGHT it is with these HIDs

some daytime pics of the lights:

the following 6 pics show the headlight from different height (it goes from regular colour to blue/purple-ish)

the following pictures show the beam pattern... i think i still need to work on aiming the headlights a bit. i didn't have enough room to move further back to show it better

hey elvasoshexai, the projectors look pretty damn sexy! one of the best and professional modifications i've seen with the jdm projectors... although i still favour the non-modified projectors with pure HID's i think you've done a great job. too bad you didnt tell them to put a ring around the projectors so we can have a professional looking angel eyes like the BMW's and Mercs. post pics of the lights at night please...-R

so how much did you pay for only the low beams and that place makes them there not jdm are they?

Read the thread title.... Although if I remember correctly someone took out the regular projector ballast and installed an Acura Tsx/Rsx? ballast.... Thus making the front part black? Also they have HID's... Right?


yep. i've got TSX projectors with Matsu****a Ballasts (i think these are the smallest ballasts out there). The black part was just painted
