TSX Projectors, Done! Some pics...

Well I finally got tired of the two flashlights that were my headlights. So I bought the TSX Projectors and retrofitted them this weekend. Damn, are they sweet. I hear Dr. Roy was charging $100 or $150 to put them in, what a deal! It took my brother and I just about two days to take out the old projectors, fabricate putting in the TSX projectors, hooking up the ballasts, and piecing all the parts back together. I thought I would just swap the projectors like cake, but no! It took some serious patientice and engineering to make sure they are secure and aimed correctly. Plus we did some extra work to make sure thieves wont be getting these without some serious time and injuries!!! Once you have headlights stolen once, you'l learn to do some protection. Don't ask, I wont tell my secrets.

Well I posted some pics, but forgive me fellas, its a rainy miami night.

That's no biggie, as long as the cut off is horizontal and relatively straight and there isn't any miss-directed light that could blind ppl, he's good.

Not saying its a bad thing at all very innovative and encouraging for other people. Ive done alot more than lower my car and slap some wheels
I'm just saying that within the past month or so there has been more threads than ever about retros. Chill out
