Well at the moment i have a 7000k Techone HID kit... and well i loved it at first but now... urg can't stand it.. bad beam pattern can't see in the rain, and worst of all i miss my highbeams ... So i have been piecing this together for the past 6 months or so and i FINALLY got most of all the parts, just waiting on one more thing to come in the mail.

Headlights


Bixenon Projectors from an Audi A6/RS6


Phillips 85122+ 4300k D2S HID bulbs



This jumble of wires is my harness



Now to get this thing started

I believe we are ground switch so we can use this setup.

Don't worry the harness is already made up and tested, so i know it will work

Well did some work today on the retrofit

fitment was almost good enough to leave it be, but i was too far forward... too bad it didn't go back further




After some adjustment and cutting it's now sitting properly





And i was worried that the Stanley corners weren't gonna match properly


Just need some shrouds now and throw it together and it's doen for that part

ooo is it gonna be able to move up and down just like the audi can?? or wasa it side to side?? ooo and it turned out suprisingly well

LOL no i only have enough room for the OEM headlight adjustment, but horizontal adjustment shouldn't be an issue cause it fits pretty snug in there loland of all the things i found for a shroud... was this

Staless steel camping mug

^^^ what is that for?

it's for putting over the projector to block the excess light from escaping and keeping it clean looking as well.

Well just a heads up with a retrofit you can take one of two roads, Bixenon, or single beam. With the single beam you have the option of using projectors such as the S2000's, or TSX those are the two most popular for single beam and both kick royal ass. then for the Bixenon you sacrifice some low beam output, like E55 projectors for example, they have a decent low beam but nothing compared to the TSX or S2000, i'm using RS6 Bixenon's now these are similar to the E55's but the bowl has a less dull finish so i am pretty sure are a little better then the E55's.. But with the E55's and RS6's i hear they have one of the better Highbeams that are available. i have yet to be able to compare them myself cause i don't have them...lol
