I took a weekend and did my Projector retrofit. They're Bi-xenon FX-35.
I havent really tried them out yet becuase the car is still parked, and will stay that way until spring time. Just thought I'd share. I've wanted to do this ever since i put an "HID Kit" in the stock headlights, and was sorely disappointed in the crappy output. I decided to black out the entire housing instead of keeping the chrome backing. The pics are kinda crappy because it was snowing at the time, and I didnt want my camera to get wet. What do you think?

The whole retrofit idea had always seemed odd-looking to me b/c our headlights are huge, compared to the projector itself. IMO it seems a bit too empty in our headlight housing?
MORE PICS PLEASE~!!! :lol:
Very nice job tho!!
