That cut off line is excellent and so sharp. I love that.
That is why you must do it right. |

Will a set of eyelids and a shield make for a good setup? Maxima10to1 did a write up on the first few pages of the Forums about how to convert with virtually no cost. Try it out...looks to be a good mod. |
Go with Bohmen 7000k.

Here's a horrible picture:

anyone else have some more pics for comparison?

The Katz 9004 HID is good.
|
I hear that McCullough kits that come out are crap, who can back that up? I've got a McCullough kit the only thing that is wrong with it is that the beam is scattered in the headlight.
|
|
Well you need the 9004 conversion kit.
|
Oh my god why do you people not listen. Those off the shelf kits are GARBAGE. McCullough's are some of the worst HIDs you can buy.
The problem with HID kits is everyone is too damn lazy to do some research. EVERYONE INTERESTED IN HID KITS GO TO WWW.HIDFORUM.COM and look the stuff up for yourselves. takentomax it's people like you who are forcing the government to investigate banning ALL HIDs (even OEM ones) because most people can't differentiate between your crap reflector style HIDs and true ones. |
if i have to buy hid again im gettin bi-xenon projector with lil more money...i think evey penny spent on bi-xenon projector is worth it plus their beam pattern and cut off line is amazing.
and to all the people with HID! please!! re-aim ur headlight lower! you peoples are blinding me! |

If you want HID's do projectors. Here you can see the low/high beam patterns and what they look like from different heights when you look into them. I bet a lot of people appreciate it when I’m coming head on.

yo formz, let us know please when you have the full-write up. Thanks.
|
There was someone selling the Bi-xenon kit, who was it again? I'm going to convert my kit as well. The Hanabi's are not that great, I alsways had a problem with my ballast and now they are both dead. I didn't even have for a year yet. I'm going straight with the projectors. Anyone know where to get them from?

Alright, I did my install friday-today. I will NOT be doing a writeup. I got about 1/4 of the way through the install and realized that it just isn't possible to write directions. It's a custom job that will be different every single time some you install it. I WILL however answer ANY questions you may have.
What is the real kick in the balls about what I did was when they were all installed, I was adjusting the drivers side vertical alignment and the STUPID TAB ON THE HEADLIGHT BROKE OFF. So now I have a low aimed headlight until next weekend when I JB Weld the tab back on so I can aim this stupid thing. |
Formz....I recall you and I having a conversation about doing a write-up...LOL...see what I mean. As someone that has done the E55 retrofit...I can honestly say that there is no one way to do the install. I can ALSO answer any questions that any may have with respect to this, as I recently finished this about 2 weeks ago.
Welcome to the club Formz...now post pics..! :grinno: |

So now I have a low aimed headlight until next weekend when I JB Weld the tab back on so I can aim this stupid thing. see, i said the same thing every time someone asked for directions. The way i see this mod is; if you need step by step directions, don’t bother doing it. But if you have questions ask away. Also do some research there is a lot of info out there. formz, take some pictures i want to see. :thumbsup: |
ok questions asking away....
ive checked out HIDforum and done a bunch of reading... from what i understand e55 are some of the more popular setups. bi-xenon is the way to go and this setup has it. only question i have now is where do i find these wonderful beasts? Junkyards best place? or should i be looking for someone in the classifieds well thats the only question i have at the moment... as soon as i can pick one of these up, im gonna do the swap myself. Fabrication is my middle name. |

Everyone will get pictures hopefully today after I fix that DAMN TAB haha
Nupe yea you were write, way too much custom stuff to do a step by step on. Those damn e55's are HUGE I had to hack a lot of stuff off the back of my headlight haha |
formz, I recall you saying you could get everything for $350, can you still get them? I used to see New everything on ebay for 400 but now I don't.

Formz is right on...so is Geo1317....this mod is not for the meek...if you need step-by-step directions...you need to just pay someone to do them for ya..
|
Any of you guys live in Queens so that I may ask you guys to install them for me for a small price in the future? =)
|
Haha I'm never installing them into a maxima ever again. If (when) I do it again, I'm going to make sure it's in a larger, circular headlight.
