You have to cut/grind down the lip around the lense and then some in order for it to fit. You also have to sort of knotch one side of the lense. If you look at the inside of the turn signal bezel, you will see it comes in some closer to the OEM lense you cut out. Because of the thickness of the projector lense, you will need to grind it in on one side a bit. Hope this makes sense lol

The 2.5" can be made to fit but needs some work on the 03/04 headlights. I spent a good amount of time working on mine and winded up scratching one like I mentioned so I just gave up on them given the time I already spent on the one. If you can't get them to work and you want to go the route of the fog projector lense (I also used a smaller lense) hit me up. I have at least one untouched OEM turn signel bezel you can have and recut to the size of the fog projector. I'll look to see if I have the 2nd one. We can talk details about what I did if you go that route and need some direction.

I don't think any sedans have done it yet???.....I know no sedan with a retrofit has done it yet. I say go for it. Worst case you open them back up and repaint them

 

Thanks for all your help. I will let you know if, or better yet when I need help. lol

 

"If"

 

So it has come to this!!


Hahaha

Ok well I received my projectors. Im just waiting on some miscelaneous things now. I want to get everything fabricated prior to gettting the shrouds and all else painted. I went to mock mount the Mini Mori that I got for the top position and the threaded part is not long enough to reach past the back of the reflector.

Should I fabricate my own mounting bracket? Or has anyone used the stock reflector to mount them and how did you get it to work?

I am going to mount the Gatlin gun 2.0 in the top and bottom position. The bottom is not a problem. Its the top that is going to be tricky.


Oh and by the way those FXR lenses that I got for the blinker are way to big. I would say atleast 1/4" too big. I will save them and see if I need them later. I did find some fog projectors that I will orders and cut the lens out and use that. They have 2 1/4" lenses that I believe I will only have to do some slight modifications to. I will let you know as I go.

 

So it has..

Pics man come on noow

 

When I get home I will hook you up. No HOMO!!!! hahahahaha

 

Oo sounds nasty.
I mean cool

 

Here are some pics.
I took the reflectors out.



Here are two of the projectors and halos and lenses and etc...



and here is how it sits right now.



I still have a few things to buy and some im waiting on.

 

in for progress.

 

I have a new way of putting the clear lens in from the back so no other grinding of the oem shroud is involved besides the cutting out the orange. I started out with a 2.5" lens.

Goodluck with the project

 

Op, don't try to put the minis using the socket adapter. If you do the projector will be awfully low. Make your own mounting brackets for em.

 

Share Stephen!

Congrats on the new long block too

 

Can you fill me in. I would love to use these lenses that I have. They look good too.

 

Im also working on mines also. Bought almost exactly what you have. The projectors didnt fit the top without cutting because the solenoid is hitting the reflector. so i decided to put it on the bottom. Even putting it on the bottom didn't help so much because the rubber gourmet was too thick. I trimmed the rubber piece and now it fits. I am almost done with my set.

 

Haha. It's easy guys just takes time and being careful. I use a bench grinder and belt sander to actually make the lens fit perfectly snug in the holder. It's such a tight fit you only need a ill bit of epoxy to hold it in. Just spin the lens on each wheel and slowly make the lens smaller but don't go to fast or the grinder will chip the lens
