working on the headlight (projector) heheh

here's what i have so far for my projector headlight conversion. remeber guys,this is incomplete.. so the main projector is a bit hollow... what do you think so far? I'm trying to think of how to implement a high beam somewhere but i'm kinda stuck.. any ideas?

the projector is from an audi a6.. and the tiny projector lens is from my honda accord aftermarket projector lol

so anyways.. any ideas for high beam?

Why not use projectors on the headlights (upper) and use a standard H7 HID kit for the fogs/highs? Looks good so far, are you going so far as to have adjustibility for the beams, that is what I would worry about?

the fog lights aren't really bright at all so i wanted to make the fog lights into real headlights. the projectors on the a6 are pretty bright with a nice cut off.. and combining that with the oem hid's would make the road pretty bright. just something a little different i guess..

The headlight looks really nice with the projector lens inside.

I wonder why those aftermarket companies haven't made any projector
headlights for the G yet.
