If you get the MiniH1 from TRS all you do is take the lense off, screw on the projector, check rotation, put on shroud, reseal, aim, done. You can EASILY have it done in a day.

Yeah it takes about as long as it would to paint the lights since while you're waiting for the paint to dry, you can mount the projector. Easy stuff.
