OK I just received the rest of what I need to finish the retrofit. Just need to paint and reassemble.

I was able to get the fx-r projectors for the bottom and the HID kit all for about $200. Saved myself about $100. I am stoked. A little searching can go a long ways.

As a side note, I plugged the new D2S bulb in my current OEM D2R plug and it fits. My question is will it light up??

 

d2s, d2r and d2c are all the same base it's the cutoff thats differerent d2r is for reflector type hid's and d2s is for projector and d2c is for both

 

Very helpful!!! Thank you. I thought it would work but I didnt want to install them and find out they wouldnt work.

 

Badass! Making progress i see

 

Yes. I was able to kinda mount them yesterday. I will finish the mounting today and need to adjust the top a little bit. The projector is sitting a little to low. Im gonna move it up about a half inch and then they will be sent to paint. Im pretty sure Im going to paint the housing black and paint the shrouds white. I really dont want the halo ring to be all that noticable. And I think the white shrouds will make it pop!

 

your welcome, the D2 refers to the bulb base the other number refers the application, d2r has a little metal paint/sheild on them making a cutoff for reflector applications d2s doesnt have one and d2c has a smaller one

d2r

d2s

 

You come through at the perfect time. Thank you again!

 

Sweet! Get some pics up when you can! Im gonna try home depot to see if they have any acrylic sheets so i can get started on that

 

Nice. I will. I will mock them mounted and take pics. Depending on where you live you might want to search to see if they have a store called "Tap Plastics" its a chain. Thats where I got the pieces of scrap acrylic for mine. They have a bunch of stuff. On a side note I also bought some 303 to spray my interior with. I was looking for this stuff forever and as it turns out I stumbled upon it there. Who would have thought!!

 

retrofit is coming out nicely...in for finished lights

 

Yes me too. I cant wait until I finish!!

 

Damn just ran a quick google map search and looks like they're only located in the San Francisco area haha im all the way in TX. Ill just give home depot a shot. Hopefully they have some.

 

Well it was worth a try hahaha. But im sure it will be comparable at home depot.

 

Haha true but i found some! Looks like i might do some cutting today if not monday when i get back from Nocturnal

 

Very nice!!! Its super easy to work with.
