Could I retrofit these xenon reflectors?

Would it be possible to retrofit these xenon reflectors from the low beam to the foglight area?

Re: Could I retrofit these xenon reflectors?

has anyone looked into whether the multiple lens projectors from a Q45 could be modified to fit our cars? would give matching gatling gun looking style lights to the front and rear of the car.

It's not going to fit the stock low beam area without major modification of the bezel. Maybe you can get it into the fog/high beam section. Here's a pic from a HID forum.

Re: Could I retrofit these xenon reflectors?

thinking about putting it in the fog high beam area do you know where to get dimensions for that area? if not I may have a friend that works W/ plexiglass and oyher plastics make me a simple round housing with a domed cover and put a set in the lower grill areas would like it in the light housings though but they're kind of expensive to buy and not be able to use missed a couple of auctions for them from 550 to 800 for a pair of headlight assemblies incl ballasts. thanks for any info you can give I'm very mechanically inclined and do most of my own ,mods but have never messed with Hid. thanks again,Dave

Re: Could I retrofit these xenon reflectors?

You can probably get it by either taking the headlight apart, or asking someone who is about to take the headlight apart. I didn't measure that area when I took mine apart to install projectors. If you are mechanically inclined, headlight work isn't too bad. Just make sure to keep the components as dustfree and clean as possible.
