I was able to use one existing hole on the projector and made a couple others. Then lots of JB Weld finished them off.

If I had this to do again I would say to use the TSX projectors since they are much easier to mount and close to the same quality. I wanted the best ones I could get so I also got the pain in the a$$ that comes with them.

Awesome work, you really don't stop. I'm looking forward to seeing your pics of these, and your review of the engine dampener and master cylinder brace.

I think these are extremely sturdy. I mounted them with multiple bolts and a bunch of JB weld. I would be shocked if they ever come loose.

Thanks vodka

I am going to try and do the hood struts and engine brace next week. I don't have the master cylinder brace yet but if it gets here next week then that will go on too.

Sorry for not posting any night shots. I am out of town now and don't have my carmera. I'll try to take a couple with my phone.

yup, it softens the glue so you can pry them open
