Custom Made G35 Coupe Projectors!
#33
Interesting, I did not know there was a demand for TSX headlights. I work as a service advisor for Acura, and the TSX and the MDX headlights both have moisture problems and I warranty a set every week, warranty does not call for them and we throw them away, I wonder how much it would cost if I provided my own TSX headlights?

1) dual projector retrofit
2) paint housing
3) CCFL in the clearance
4) demon eyes

Then on top of that the labor (prob. quick of painting your housings), not to forget the clearing out of the turn signal in teh headlight which is also not simple.....thats at least a weeks worth of labor if not more...

Thought I'd bump this thread. There's alot of irony going on if you read from the first post on.
Ed was getting his lights professionally done.
People were waiting for installed pics. I would have loved to see beam pattern pics with all 4 projectors on from about 25 feet (how come no one with quad projectors posts beam pattern pics?)
I was still waiting for my TL clear lenses, and since then my retrofit was completed, with pics littered throughout.
Here's the part I don't get.....
But when you go to hidretro...
http://www.hidretro.com/page46.htm
There's the exact same pics of the lights?
I'm trying to see if they had to extend the dustcap for the low beam with JB weld and such, because that tends to hit the fenderliner, but all of the pics just miss that angle to be able to tell this.

He's actually professional. He quoted me $900 for parts AND labor. I guess i WILL shop around..
But regardless, you did a nice job.
