it's not available, but I thought somebody in this forum retro-fitted projectors in their factory headlights??

There are no aftermarket lights that we can just plug and play for our cars. Someone here retro fitted projectors; rather than learn limited info here...learn it all at a HID forum. it basically entains buying the right projector (if your gen 1, then you need bixenon ones), then buying the right wiring harness, the ballast, the right bulbs, and then proper cutting, jbweld..and most tricky part...alignment of the projectors.

I did the retro fit. It’s a royal pain in the butt, but doable. Only have lowbeams though. Bi-Xeons are too expensive for me.

I wish, but I can't right now. My digital camera crapped out on me, and I have too much money going into my car over the next couple of months to be able to afford one.

I'm not sure who this is, but I remember he said that he "retrofitted" these projectors for about $400 or more I think . . . but with hours and hours of work and R&D. I think these were BOSCH? maybe, but I'm not sure. You can basically get any projector that will fit into the headlight assembly . . . of course adjustment is required. Hope these help. Shoooooootz.

is it 400 including the HIDs or just for hte projectors? If i could get hte full system for like 500-600 including HIDs and projectors, i'd do it. is it possible?
