2001 Ebay Angel Eyes TSX Retro Lexus ballasts

Hey,

I have a set of Ebay projector angel eyes headlights for an 00-03 Maxima, that I did a retro on with TSX projectors with the washer color mod. They have newer Ds2 bulbs powered by oem lexus ballasts. I also have the custom wiring for it that enables the high beams to come on and off without effecting the low beam. Functions exactly like stock in other words. Super sharp cutoff line. Never had the angel eyes hooked up so they are practically new as well. Thanks for looking. I would like $450 shipped OBO>. Located in MN


BTW: I was the first guy to do a retro on the 4th gen R34 lights!

My 2cent for 02/03 owners on "re-wiring" retrofitted ebay projectors, based on my write-up here.
http://www.cardomain.com/ride/504020/3

The one ebay projector retrofit advantage that the 2002/2003 Maximas have over the 2000/2001 is the electrical setup. The 02/03 OEM headlights utilize a HID low beam and a 9006 high beam, powered by via the ballasts and ignitors. Since the 2000/2001 uses a H4, dual filament bulb which produces a low and high beam, a custom wiring harness would need to be made to power the bulbs in the retrofitted ebay projectors.

So if I had a 02/03 Maxima and wanted to power the retrofitted ebay projectors, all I would have to do is replace the D2R bulbs with a D2S* bulbs. I would also have to replace the 9006 bulb with a H1. Because the H1 bulb is a single lead, I would have to modify it in such a way to power the 9006 bulb. Instead of rewiring from a 9006 to an H1, another option would be to bore out the hi-light reflector bowl and creating a bulb holder for the 9006 bulb.

*D2S bulbs are made for projector use only. Go to hidplanet forums to learn more about D2R and D2S bulbs.

this is made more or less so for 00-01 maximas. I think the stock 02-03 maxima hid lights are nice to begin with.

Highs are a 9005 bulb, single filament (9006 is also a single filament bulb, but used for low beams).
