i have finished putting together the mounts for the projectors. i mounted them to the reflector dish and reinstalled them in the housing to the oem points to retain the beam adjustability.
these projectors fit perfectly inside the dish with very little modification allowing me to retain all the oem qualities of the outside of the headlight. the only thing done to the original parts of the headlight are the 4 holes drilled in the back of the dish in order to mount the projectors.
as you can see... the back of the headlight looks exactly like it did when i got it. when you look where the headlight bulb clips in you can see that the reflector dish to the projector is almost flush with the opening of the original reflector dish that the headlight came with. this should allow the bulb to go in just as if this came factory.
i began wetsanding one of the headlight covers.. hopefully i will finish with these this weekend and they should be crystal clear and good as new.
i am still in the process of making my own shrouds. i have a bit more cutting and test fitting to do.
and i just got this other little goodie in the mail the other day
alright so here is the test fitting on the practice headlight:
so i cut the inside of the drop pan and pushed it in so that when i pushed it over the projector housing it holds itself in place.
then i trimmed down the bathroom faucet trim that i picked up from home depot so that it would fit around the 3" projector and on top of the drop pan. i set everything up in the practice headlight.
that is basically what the finished product will be except the housings will be glacier frost mica to match the rest of the car.
the drop pan and the outter trim have been jb welded in place and arent going anywhere. now im just waiting for the housings to come back from the paint booth.
