I have done it...its not hard at all. it just takes some precision. acura tl's are by far the best projectors around but its gonna cost you.

if you are gonna retrofit then make sure to do a lot of research first. when ur putting this much money and time into something...make sure you do it right the first time.

for me it took a total of about 8hrs and $500. if i were to do another set...it would take less than 4hrs. and the price is with a brand new set of 1 peice cefiro headlights and all the misc. little things and of course the projectors, ballasts, bulbs, and harness.

i have a thread on here about them...but i dont have pics yet...i will though on wednesday night.

let me know if you decide to go ahead with retrofit...ill try and help you out as much as i can.
