yeah no i just don't like the look of them, These retrofits are nice, and not hard to do.


wasn't able to test fit yesterday, had something else come up but maybe today even though its gonna be super cold out :/ this weather just needs to stay nice.

alright so finished everything today... only snag is one of the demon eyes wouldn't come on, and i tested both so either something is wired wrong orrr i some how fried it which would suck because now its stuck in the housing. Ill tinker with that another day.

Either way, got the housings sealed and installed and ITS ALL DONE and i think it looks AWESOMEEEEE..

here is what the stocks looked like before the Project.



and now



Hidden halo which is on is own switch.

Russ... looks great! So wait, one of the lights don't work? But your pics show all the lights working, both the low beam and the demon eyes. Which doesn't?

rmurer

its a little misleading the blow beams and high beams work great.

the one picture of just the Halo it looks like it has a demon eye but thats just light bleed from the halo.

The demon eye would be blue and only one of those works.

FromZto5

ohhh...so the headlight itself (through the projector) can either be regular low/high beams in halogen or xenon, then it also has a blue LED inside to have the demon eye?

rmurer

yeah.

FromZto5

ok, you've teased me enough. Now I need to see just the demon eye... do you have a pic of the working one?

rmurer

not on the car itself

but here is a test mock.

^ very cool. What kind of bulb is it? Just a simple LED? And I'm still picturing how that bulb, plus the low/high beam can all share the same outlet area. hmmmmm... Also, is it designed so you can turn on the halos and demon eye independently or simultaneously?

rmurer

its actually a tiny LED strip that i had to secure behind the projector lens.

here is what the projector looks like. I have the Halos and Demon eyes wired independently on switchs.

In this diagram you can see the lens and i just had to basically sneak the little led in behind it somehow ( i glued mine in place). and just ran the wires out the side.

^ thanks Russ. That's projectors 101 for me. I understand now I figured the retrofit source would have given you the lens with the LED all installed and you just had to figure out how to get it installed in your headlight assembly.
