JDM headlight projector swap?

Has anyone tried or does anyone know if swaping the JDM integra projector lenses out and retro fitting them into the 4th gen housing will work?

I think that would look really good. But this means the projector has to go into a housing that has highbeams, can a projector do low and high beam from a singple projector? Those who have this done in 5th gen they must have high beams?

But why? There are lots of other projector kits available that don't cost as much as ITR lights...

Yeah, I don't think there's anything special about the jdm's, if you're talking about the projector alone.

I think he's talking about taking the projector from the jdm integra headlight housing & transplanting it into the usdm headlight housing. Not the whole headlight swap.

im sure it would fit, but like others said, why? they would flare to the left, into oncoming traffic. and you could get them from an audi or something else most likely for cheaper. I would only do it if you already have the projectors for whatever reason.

oh my gaaaaaaaawd that would be sooooo sweet! I hate the projector headlights they have now for the 4th gens. That would be awesome if you could retrofit those.

By the way, what are the measurements on the integra projector? I'm asking because I was just wondering how easy it will fit...
