Here is what is done as of aug 25th!

Still need seal everything up, Aim the low beams, and make a cover plate.

Most of the hard work is done!!! it feels good.

Finising up the backing plates:


Finished HID Harness


Old HID ballasts (OMG WTF, so big) Vs. new ballast! so sexy, Ignitors sit on the back of the bulbs. (yes there is enough room!):


The only modification to the car I had to make (alot easier than milan made it out to be....)



Drum roll!


Quasi finished!:



That being said, im taking a break from these for the weekend. A couple more parts I need should be in sometime next week, and ill be able to start sealing things up.

Later,

Alex

Its a Hella Gen 4 HID set up with some used bulbs that came with the projectors. Ill be upgrading those to a 4000-6000k bulb, not sure yet.

I know this may be something of a frankenstein set up, but through ebay ive come out ALOT cheaper than the 'basic' tried and true system (90mm projectors x 4 + HID retro fit for H9's or H7's).

I just want CEG to know that it is possible to use a cheaper set up if you look around, and take the time to put in the effort to make it all work.

Ill say ive got more than 30 hours into it so far, and have wanted to give up quiet a few times. It takes some dedication

I would stay under 6000K, it would be a crisp blue color under projectors, 4000K however would be amazing, it'll be very very bright...Also if you need help finding HID's stuff like wiring harness's, balasts and bulbs, shoot me a PM, I got a lot of sources...good luck meng!
