*Yanki01's HID Retro Fotoshoot! 56k....?*
FINALLY! I recieved them from Lightwerkz.net (Ceasar) about 2 weeks ago and man does he do some amazing work. This is actually my 3rd set of retro'd lights (from other retrofitters) but the other 2 sets i was never able to put them on my car due to problems (i didnt even recieve 1 back). Its seriously a night and day difference driving at night now! I can see alot better over stock halogens now. Im so glad i saved up for this mod, i dont think i can ever drive with halogens again. this is how you should run HID kiddos! After noticing the cutoff looking a bit low and uneven in the wall pic, i did adjust it after i took the pic. All level now, but unable to get the pic because i was getting attacked by misquitos and the dumb security guard kept rolling by ruining the shots.
Setup includes:
Infiniti FX35 bi-xenon projectors
TSX clear lense
BMW E46 replica shrouds
Philips 85122+ D2S bulbs
Denso Slim Ballast
the projectors are a hybrid using the FX35 projectors and TSX clear lense which are known as the "TFX Hybrid". together they produce better output and sharper cutoff.
Let me know if you have any questions.....enjoy!
DAY PICS....

only day pic i have up close of the housing
as for the high beam, since its a bi-xenon projector (low and high beams) im using the projectors high beam. You can see it being turned on in pic#6. I have nothing in the stock high beam place, just the 9005 sitting there with electricial tape on the socket.

right under $1k. I started gathering all the parts i needed for this retro back in February. I already had everything in mind i wanted so i knew what to look for. The things that i bought brand new were the 2nd set of headlamps, and BMW E46 replica shrouds. All the others were previously used in which it doesnt matter besides the bulbs and ballast. The bulbs had very little hours of use on them as did the ballast. i got some good deals on these parts. You just have to know where and when to buy them.
