03-05 Fog Light Conversion to Xenon??
Did anyone retrofit our fogs into xenons? I'm thinking of putting a xenon kit since our lights are not that bright. If someone did, please post some pictures. Thank you in advance!!!

It's a work on progress for the 5th (!) revision of my retrofit, but here's a pic:
The low beams with the TSX projectors are done. The high/fog with RS6 bixenons need the shroud finalized and the wiring hooked up.

So far it's:
$200 TSX projectors
$30 hidplanet shrouds
$25 two E46 3" shrouds
$200 RS6 bixenon projectors
$300 for extra pair of headlights with ballasts/bulbs.
$45 H4 harness that will allow both high (solenoid) and low (HID bulb) to be on at the same time.
$7 for an acrylic pane at Home Depot for the clear signals, with enough material left to do another 15-20 pairs of headlights.
2 months of time into it, creating custom sheilds for the TSX projectors, figuring out how to mount everything. I do about 1 hr of it here and there. It's just for my own car, so I'm taking my sweet old time. My goal is to finish it by early December.

I think he started before the 06's were out and before anyone knew that they were plug and play...also, he still has his clearance light!

But I'm looking for a sharper cutoff with the TSX projectors.
Plus, if you look at the list of items, you'll see that there are a total of 4 projectors listed.
