is there a kit for the projector retrofit?

I have a 2002 maxima and I had the ebay halo headlights without the projectors. the light output wasnt great so i did the retrofit using E55 projectors.

I used directions from a fellow .org member (Feldman) along with these to aim the lights properly and not blind the oncoming traffic:

This procedure aimed my headlights perfectly, however even if you drill the screws as far up as you can the projectors arent centered in the halos and they cant be adjusted after they are installed. (theres a point where the back of the headlights curves and you cant drill. theres also a spot near the hole that keeps the lights from fogging up thats tough to drill.)

Is there a kit for these retrofit? if not and I came up with one how many people would be interested?

A kit to mount the projectors or an entire projector retrofit kit (including bulbs, ballasts, projectors etc.)?

TRS (TheRetrofitSource.com) sells entire projector retrofit kits but they don't sell kits to mount projectors.
