looks good, but too damn expensive. i guess you got really excited for them headlights.

 

damn i felt the pain just reading it

ya i got too excited opening the box lol my hand hurts whenever i stretch it open =/ i'll probly install them tomorrow...shouldn't be too hard.

 

A paper cut??? I would have to lose a finger or something to not go out and put them in.

You are better then me, I just couldn't have waited. Especially after the loot spent in getting em. Great job... can't wait to see em in.

 

Looks good man. And Sucks about the paper cut. I once got sliced in the same area by one of the blades of an aluminum blind. 2 stitches FTL. I know it's not something to scoff at.

 

ok i just installed them on the car...took me friggin 2 hours lol i don't know how theives do it but it's so hard to take out lol i got a few more cuts too =/

well here's how they look on the car...




i'll get night pics tonight or something...so far i poured water onto the car and headlights and no fogging so that's good i hope. next time i'm going to use oem headlights for the retrofit i used depo ones this time and the passenger side has a small gap on the bottom and the driver side has a tiny gap on the side. but so far i'm happy

 

Hey that looks pretty good! Can't wait to see the night shots.

 

Very nice. Awaiting night shots.

 

Really clean work but I have to be honest and say that I'm just not feelin it. Maybe it looks better in person, I don't know. With that being said I'm sure that the output will be great.

 

when you say "depo" ones are you talking about the cheap ones from Ebay?

 

ya i bought them from ebay. $590 shipped and came with hids and stuff. i'm just going to keep my oem set in case i want to have another one done in the future lol

 

i think it is the better ones on the org. have a side picture? more like a diagonal POV. good job nonetheless.

 

So, what time will you be posting the night pics?

 

yeah lets see em!

 

ok here's the cutoff picture.



i need to aim my driver side higher a bit.

 

Yea post them UP... i want to see
By the way Nice Job Looks Unique..

 

Hmm, let's see more.

 

alrite alrite lol

i drove around and can't find any place to take pictures of the cutoff so i had to do it in my parking space =/ i still need to adjust it a bit



oh and here's the funky turn signal which has a projector lense on it lol



having such a sharp cutoff is very distracting i keep staring at it =/ it's super fun driving behind chrome bumpers

 

Whoa that is awesome! Love the turn signals too.

 

Definitely has a nice output. I'm with you though when you say you're not feeling them. To me they make the max look "googly eyed" or like those stuffed animals with the eyes that bounce around...bad analogy i guess.

Anyhow in the end, as long as you like them then thats all that matters. Good work and thanks for the pics.

 

ohh they look nice. paper cuts are bad

 

They look funny, would look better if you put the projectors in both the low beam and high beem spots.

It looks like somethings missing.

Looks like it has good output at night tho.

 

I think it would seem more appealing if the projector bodies were recessed some more. IMO it currently looks like your max has those tiny swimgoggles or those shades you use in a tanning booth on it. Do you have pics looking AT the front of the car while they're on? Light output looks spectacular. I would love to see what they look like on a dark stretch of tarmac.

 

haha they do look like goggles now that i look at them O_O but ya they do stick out quite a bit because i wanted to reuse the back covers on the headlights to seal up the stuffs. they could have made it sit more flushed with the rest of the headlight but then i think it'll stick out on the back and not able to reuse the cap thing.

i'll get some better pics later...driving at night is actually fun now lol ya output is tons better compared to my stock hids because stock only goes out like 20 or so feet then dark up ahead...with projectors i can aim it more straight forward without blinding people and the light reaches farther down the road. on my previous car i had a retrofit that looked similar goggle eyed i just put some eyelids on them and it helped a lot. but i don't want to put eyelids on my maxima

 

Why not?

 

because my car is pretty much stock so i don't think eyelids will look good by themself haha

 

alrite just a few updated pics with the lights on and stuff...





and a cutoff...



i was driving down a dark road and the light has very good spread and output...but i wasn't able to take the camera out at the moment =/

 

hmm, im not seeing the angeleye effect. maybe some DDEs to finish it up around the leftover bit of the cavity and it would to it for me

 

Holy TSX projector cutoff FTMFW

 

wow they look good on the car...the cutoff is amazing! i've been trying to find some decent projectors to use on my car now. how much did you buy the tsx projectors for?

 

wait you do have HID's right? Cuz those lights look awfully yellow in the upclose pics.

Do you have any shots on a open/flat/dark road so we can see more of the light projection/cut off?

 

those are hids...they're brand new bulbs that's why they are so yellow lol i'll have to drive around with them for a month or so before it colorshifts...maybe even longer to get it to be whiter. i'll try to find an open stretch of road to take a pic.

here's one output shot...i'm sitting downhill so the lights are pointed down that's why it doesn't go so far. on a straight road it goes pretty far down the road...




looks whiter here

and to skylinedl69...i bought my projectors from a member over on hidplanet for $180 shipped i think.

 

WOW! I'm liking the output/cutoff. Great project!

 

I wonder how it would look if you put the projector in the place of the turn signal. some what how the TSX and TL head lights are set up

 

Nice, I sold bout 30 of these projectors on Ebay.... might try doing Q45 projectors on my Max over winter or just doing dual TSX projectors. Not feeling the single look.

 

He DOES have projectors in his turn signals.

 

Nice lowincash....the cutoff looks just like my sister TSX.....

 

LOL cuz they are tsx projectors haha but mine are color modded so it got more blue and purple on the cutoff

oh and i found somewhat of a dark alley...the street light for some reason did not turn on so it was good for picture taking haha

 

Actually, I would be interested in someone doing the crazy new Q-ship projectors and/or the new M projectors in the headlamps. I wonder how insane would that be? I think I'd have to make slots and use a chunk or rebar welded to the frame so nobody could jack those puppies :P

 

For light output, they look amazing. I'm with what others have said, the projector housing looks out of place in the maxima's headlamp. Once you play around with mounting depth and get it to look clean it will look a lot better.

I just wish we had a write up which shows exactly how to measure the projector housing against the headlamp and how to cut away the material.

Still, I'd kill to have those just the way they are.

 

Blackbird, want to hook up a fellow org member with a cheaper than market price TSX projectors? I am looking to get a pair of the 04-05s with the clear lens.
