as in seeing through them when holding them in the light, NO. I have the replicas and actually preferr these since ive had about 3 pairs of the OEM E46 shrouds and the chrome is so delicate to the touch it rubbs off and light can pass through if the projector is not fully covered with something. their made with non-clear hard plastic as the OEM ones are clear plastic. they were actually half the price of the OEM ones and love these. these actually feel better and are made a bit more sturdier than the others. i bought mine here from The Retrofit Source, great guy to buy from...

so did you clip the shrouds on or did you have to custom mount it?

Yanki01

i think Lightwerkz used some silicone to attach them to the projector? Not sure on what he did?

ok thats what i thought...he prolly used epoxy cuz thats wut I used

since you have those gaps there why not go further and actuate the projector assemblies to automatically angle itself left or right when you make left & right turns like the lexus ls model hd lights. i can understand having gaps for that purpose but the gaps just don't look clean that way when the projector is dead set fixed. my .02 cent.

i really want to get this done!

there is no way around it, and what your refering to is called AFS, and its not just a motor, its a whole computer on its own that measures speed, angles, motion, etc etc close to being impossible to implement on a tc retrofit.

as for gaps, you must be the most **** person ever, lol, doesnt get any better then that without custom shrouds and very limited adjustment

i have no clue how much those would cost and have yet to see anything like that in the HIDPlanet.com forums. it would probally be too much work since the shroud i preferr (which is what i used) there's no space to move a couple MM's to get them to turn. i dont think its a simple fix either, i think those go along into your ECU on when to turn when you turn your steering wheel and is probally a small computer. we seriously have no room in the back of the housing for anything which is actually why i opted not to go with angel eyes. IMO, i see PLENTY of light on the sides to where i dont need them to turn, although if it came with it i wouldnt complain. these FX projectors did come with an auto leveling motor but too much work to make it work proper and i can adjust them manually behind the housing which of course wasnt hard. i understand what your saying about the "gaps" but seriously, the only way to find a shroud to fit out housing is impossible unless you make your own which i didnt want. our housings are not made to have custom shrouds put in so of course they dont make any to fit perfect, these are near that. Its not noticeable when focusing on the projectors and shrouds. Even if you try to look around the gaps, you cant see anything beyond them because the projector/nuts and bolts are covered by the shroud. you can only see the back of the stock reflector.

SPEECHLESS!!!

ha ha, where've you been man! I told you, you need to come by and check em out soon. Let me know, give me a call or something?

tcality

im sure there are ways to interface that system. also it does not have to be as complex as lexus. you probably can tee into the pwr steering pressure switch for those inputs to determine angles.

and dude you don't know me to even start callin me ****. way to make yourself lookin like a dick on someone's opinions, LOL. don't waste my time fool. I wasn't even talking to you.

I WILL OR IF NOT, I'LL TAKE THEM FROM YOU LOL

Yanki - props on the project and on trying to make the best of it. at least you got the cutoffs aligned right.

Yanki01

lol, if their missing ill know who to look for. you stick out like a sore thumb!

Yanki01

thats the one thing im glad of and my biggest fear is that i would get them back and the cutoffs would be wack!

that's the cleanest retro fit i've seen!!!

Yanki01

one month later and still rockin!

^Word man.

Clean setup tho!

InfiniteVisi0n
