Thanks man. Yes I had to cut a notch in the top of it to make room for the massive oem igniter. Here is a pic of the cutoff.

would it be possible for your to do a dual m3 projector set-up for a coupe headlight.. instead of 3rd gen tl, and tsx, I currently own a 3rd gen tl and i'm not to fond of the color the projector creates..

S2000 projectors are the best... by far!

Make your own angel eyes. They're really easy to do! A little tedious, but really easy. Just go to your local hardware store and find those plastic clear stick/stems that you twist to close the blinds for your windows. Its basically a plexiglass stick. Get the rounded ones... not the hex cut ones. Then heat them up and bend them into the right size circle. Take a dremel with a cutting bit, and starting cutting lines on the back side. Then wire up some LEDs to the ends, and there ya go! ANGEL EYES!
