Where to get projectors

[Skunksmash]

Couple more pics. Ended up having to use a hole saw on the factory headlight buckets to get the new headlights to fit in there. No big deal there. Just used some ebay H4 connectors for the lower 2 lights. The stock upper two lights already fit H4 bulbs so no need to buy anything there.

Only thing is, the bottom two lights still just barely glow when you click over to the dims. Which is the top two lights. I got it wired up correctly so that when you turn on the dims, the correct filament in the H4 bulbs light up. Then when you turn on the brights, the correct filament in all 4 headlights light up. But for some reason, the bottom two are still getting power and just barely glow orange.

But this is nothing new. The factory headlight setup did the same thing.

Here's a few before and after pics. Look pretty good imo and are a LOT brighter than those dangerous old style ones I was running. Even so, I'll still probly do the projector/HID project eventually. But not for a few years.

Next stop.. new grill and lower spoiler. Look how tore up it is.

Already got the new headlight bezels though. If you look at the passenger side in the first pic, you can see the old ones were broke. Ordered some off ebay and sanded 'em and rattle canned 'em.

Whoops let that one slip   Fixed!

I blame it on being tired when I was uploading those. Auto theft runs rampant here in the DFW area. And while I live just a little south of there, best not to take any chances.

Hmm. Got some kind of problem here. Looks like I might have to wire up all the dims to be on at the same time, just like the brights. When I switch to dim, its really dim lol. Too dim to be usable. This is probly cause the old bulbs were brighter than H4's are on dim.

But the brights are like daylight lol.

I would get rid of those fake projectors because they look really bad.   magazines sell the real conversion. They are the good quality sealed beams almost feel like glass and only run at 40 a piece. They offer the conversion socket for the 9007 bulb for cheap which is what you need to add HID's. The socket is all you need and does not require any cutting. HID's come with ballast for the right power and I would get the hi/low ones for the top only because when you switch to high beams they all come on but in white color just like factory. I've had them for 3 years now with no problem yet.
