looks nice and clean. the aiming is good too. 7th cuttoff pics looks kinda off. but w/ the tyc u cant really rotate unless u make an adaptor. the other cuttoff pics look well aimed. got some nice color from those clear valeos.

arn't u glad u did the retro yourself. it wasn't that hard right? The hardest thing was probably aiming the projectors.

what are u doing w/ the other set of headlights? Thats a lot of silicone used to hold the h7 projectors.

thats right dude....aiming projectors was pain in the ***....and they still not 100% aimed......my driver side need lit work needs to roted counter clockwise.....i just gone keep it as it...cuz thats toomuch work..

i know their is lots of silicone....that i bought it from this site....thats my backup pair.....

good job! looks like both projectors need to be rotated.

 
Rep Power: 0

both ?

 
Rep Power: 435

it's either your passenger side projector's flare is insanely huge, or your projector is severly tilted counter clockwise.

I too am going to do a retrofit soon. This is what I have to work with as of right now:



and it's beam patter(on my ceiling):


Everything came out of a headlamp for a 2004 Nissan Maxima. I've only got one right now, but I have a second on the way.

good stinkypie...are u gone put this in to oem housing....or aftermarket ???
and what type of projectors are those.....d2s ??h7??

 
Rep Power: 271

If I can't get it to work in an aftermarkey housing, I will retro into an oem and replace them with aftermarket during the fit.

The projectors I'm not sure about, they're the ones used in an 04 maxima.

e55 bi-xenons. good choice, but not the best in bi-xenons (TLs, afaik). good to know people are actually doing retrofits now, though, instead of wasting their money on kits.

I work with what I can. Being that I worked in a Nissan parts department, it isn't surprising I got ahold of this for absolutely nothing(no, I didn't steal, people have problems with the headlamps being properly sealed in maximas). Everything tests out good. I just have to get some cash to get new housings so I can get to work.

I now work in Toyota parts, but one of my friends took my old job.

haha nice. i have a few friends who work in the mazda parts department. maybe i can get some rx-8 headlights
