Projector headlight question.

Has anyone done the projector headlight swap? If so any advice or a thread I could read, thanks.

What do you mean, "Swap?" Many have done retrofits into stock 97-99 headlight housings, and a few into 1-piece cefiros. Maxgtr2000 will do it for you, if you supply all the materials, for a flat rate, shipping included, and it's a damn good deal.

I think there's also an R32 headlight swap that you can do, they came with projectors stock but don't really fit too well and don't look great. You would also have to swap projectors out if you wanted to run HID, so basically, just do a retrofit or have maxgtr2000 do it for you.

If you want to do it yourself you should check out the HIDplanet forums.

Yes maxgtr2000 is the one to talk to. he did mine and many others. Check ebay for parts and i can even help you scout some good deals if you like just hit me up. Make sure its done right though because its expensive.

Yeah, I was just being retarded in my first post, but you can search or PM one of us that already has them to inquire about our setups, where to get stuff, etc.

He should be able to do a set for your friend. My buddy is interested in getting a set for his 04 RAM and maxgtr2000 said hed be able to do them. Make sure you read all the forums and do searches and read on HIDpalnet.com because like everything else on this site if you dont help yourself first dont expect anyone else to help you out.
