Has anybody done a retrofit from these guys? From what I understand, it is a no cut projector retrofit into your stock housing.

So you're saying that not a single thing needs to be touched, you just drop it in?
And no you didn't.... There was a sedan with quads at the 2002 auto show. Before North America was able to buy the car. Unless you did that one, then high five lol
But I'm saying show me the set up, would make my life a hell of a lot easier.

I have never done a retrofit so I have no idea what is involved. What the explanation says are they are sized to go through the original hole for the bulb. They are then screwed in from the front and not suppose to need cutting of the reflector. They come with bulbs, ballasts and even bezels to complete the oem look. You can even buy them to fit in the non projector hid location. I read on other forums of people retrofitting without cutting (Juke, tacome, E46 and Mazda 6 to name a few). If it is true, what a great step forward in projector retrofits. I am sure it will not be as good as a TSX or other high end projector, but for the ease it might be worth it. Take a look.
And yes, I looked at a Juke forum because I am thinking about getting one. That is what turned me on to the company.

yeah nothing needs to be touched. you have an H4 shaped washer that replaces the h4 fog bulb. It has a hole that the projector slides in from the reflector side and u tighten the lock nut and voala!
ill do a full write up when i get my spare coupe lights, i have 20+ pairs of projectors, From MiniH1 to S2000 to Fxr and more

Ahhh G20 eh haha.
That sounds pretty bad ***. BUT with the G35, almost every shroud binds on the lower reflector and needs to be trimmed for the couple MMs of clearance. Is there anyway to do the upper light without cutting the headlight bezel?
BTW, sorry for the slow response, I'm vacationing lol
