2k2_civic_ex_4d he is the one who offering retro but shame on him to steal the stuff. I am one of the victim. If you live close to San Marcos I suppose you can try to contact him and go to his place for the retro. If you do stop by his place please help me to ask him about my retro. I have all his contact number. PM me if you need it.

retro is a big hassle, thats why i would only do it for myself. Its just one of those things that takes a lot of time, planning and effort. Hence i never did a retro for other people since mine alone took like 3months.

crazyasian is going to fix a lot the small mistakes i made as a first time diy retrofit. He's going to refine a bit more and its going to be perfect.

Yeah he was offering $50, I thought that make sense at first because he was trying to put his name out there. But too bad that I believed him. I suppose he will never use his account here anymore as 2k2_civic_4d_ex. So I'll help him to put his name out: Daniel De LaTorre

Hey Man, I really appreciates your help. I pmed you in your AIM. Well hopefully he is not stealing but I really can't believe that he is not stealing. I emailed him like a gazillion times and he never replied but some of my friends from HIDPlanet emailed him, he replied every single email.

Mine is the 01-03 headlights. I sent him a bi-xenon projector, 01-03 headlight, a pair of D2S bulbs, D2S ballast adapter. If you can help me to ask him about my project that would be awesome. Thanks again
